Punk Drunk

Never being one for taking things too easy – the first time I drank was no exception. This story is just an insight into ongoing struggles, understanding, and coping.

High school. House party. Similar story setting for this type of event for a lot of people. Much earlier than my drug addiction and in the middle of some early success.

It’s a late Friday night in Clifton 2002. Some high school friends and I were hanging out and someone broke into their grandparent’s liquor cabinet it seemed. The liquors were flowing, and the beer cans were cracking. Shitty liquor and beer that is. Like, butt-hole schnapps and whatever is worse than the lowest beers.

After a few hours of hanging out drinking beer, I found myself on a futon in the common room with a beautiful crush I had. She was a bit older and we had tried to hang out a bit, but I was too socially ignorant to be acting properly (some things never change). Just lounging around I casually drank 20 shots of schnapps and Jack Daniels.

Needless to say, I didn’t remember much after laying on her boobs for a little bit.

The next day my friend woke me up on the floor and drove me to my parent’s house. I had a first band practice with a NY straight-edge hardcore band…. sweet… he says facetiously.

On the way to the house, my friend told me that I ended up on the front lawn balled up and really sick. Everyone was too drunk to take me to the hospital, so they kicked me in the stomach a bunch to get me to puke everything out. I was probably crying and yelling and causing a scene.

Not a great look.

Back at band practice, I couldn’t hold my sticks – throwing them around like an angry 5-year-old who wanted gummy bears at Kroger. It would have been embarrassing had I realized it. Thankfully, some of the band members were friends of mine, and they vouched for me to try again some other time. We ended up having some great shows and times together, but the first look was pretty shit.

More than 15 years later I still get into situations that are similar to this in one aspect; the record button turns off. The brown out to black out. Time traveling.

It’s not a good look, in that big amount of time I’ve learned to be a happy drunk and not do stupid things – for the most part. But here is the catch – it only takes one stupid moment to fuck up a huge portion of one’s life. So, I’m working on figuring out where that amount of alcohol to shut me out of memory is, and staying away from it. If it comes to it, I’ll have to get really disciplined about it, but it’s the good thing to do.

Anyone else going/went through this type of thing? I’d love to talk about strategy. Please feel free to drop a line.

Best,

Jason

    The Packers are on a three-game winning streak where theyâ??ve gone into each contest as an underdog. The play of Jordan Love has been key. Heâ??s been excellent, compiling 857 yards and eight touchdowns during the streak. However, one glaring stat also playing a huge role is the +5 turnover difference in these games. The Packers have played very well, but theyâ??ve been the beneficiary of some big turnover opportunities as none of the wins came by more than one score. The Giants have lost eight in a row and have scored more than 21 points twice in those eight losses. So the Eagles just need to not help them with turnovers and short fields and find a way to score about 24 points. Enter your email and password to access comments.

  47. Questa alimentazione cheto, denominata di norma come alimentazione a basso contenuto di carboidrati, consiste in un schema https://justpaste.it/fc0i2 alimentare incentrato sulla riduzione marcata di glucidi e sull’ aumento del consumo di assunzione con trigliceridi e proteine. Tale metodo alimentare e stato originariamente sviluppato per curare la epilessia infantile tra i piccoli, tuttavia e diventato popolare inoltre quale sistema finalizzato a perdere la massa corporea ed migliorare una condizione del metabolismo.

    All’interno della alimentazione cheto, lo corpo passa in un condizione metabolico chiamato metabolismo chetogenico, in cui consuma gli grassi per generare forza invece di gli zuccheri. Cio mena a una accresciuta efficacia nella bruciare i grassi e potrebbe causare a una rapida calo nel massa corporea. Cio nonostante, e importante notare che questa alimentazione a basso contenuto di carboidrati potrebbe rivelarsi difficile da praticare a lungo termine e puo causare certi risvolti secondari tra cui affaticamento, costipazione e cattiva respirazione. Risulta opportuno coinvolgere un professionista della benessere prima prima di iniziare qualsivoglia piano alimentare estremo come la alimentazione chetogenica.
