No...really I can't. Although at the moment I am sooo tired the very thought of alcohol sends me to sleep. I am tired because last week I worked 70 hours, which admittedly was my choice but these decisions are always easy to make until you actually have to do it. Anyway it was an entering time working at the weekend, I can cope with the tiredness because all weekend I did not go out and I did not spend any money, so I am getting a little practice for next week.
Some people who come into work really show me the down side to alcohol. Take one guy, he comes in almost daily and drinks about 10 - 15 JD and Cokes, before leaving for the next pub. He mentioned that he thinks he drinks between one and two bottles of JD a day. There must be a sad story behind that. Almost all the older guys who come in, come in alone. It seems to be this point that makes alcohol their friend or if not friend...at least their company. That is depressing, obviously it is an extreme side but it shows the need for moderation.
I am also feeling very unfit at the moment, but want to wait till September to start exercise again properly so I can feel the benefits of not drinking fully. I really want to tone and loose a bit of weight too, and alcohol is not only putting the pounds on but also killing any motivation.
I am almost sure that my conclusion after the month will be that people should be able to enjoy themselves with alcohol every now and then, but that is the thoughts of a drinker.
We'll see
