Woohoo! Free vodka **falls over**
Well, this is my first visit to the forum while tipsy - not quite officially 'drunk' yet - I wonder if there's an official scale of drunkedness? What the heck, I'm tipsy enough to try and make one, suggestions for modifications are welcome...
Stan's scale of drunkedness...
1 - Sober
2 - Had a little drinkie
3 - Merry
4 - One too many
5 - Tipsy
6 - A little bit drunk
7 - Drunk
8 - The telling all your friends, "I love you" stage
9 - Bladdered / Wasted / Anebriated
10 - Officially and quite literally, blind drunk
I dont drink very often, just special occasions, and a 5 out of 10 is a fair assumption based on tonights free (did I mention it was free?

) consumption I reckon.
M2M, not sure if planning for vodka shots is something to be proud of or not yet, I can't work it out. I guess it's all down to the way you guys have trained me to be good

. **hic**. Oh dear, I have to get up for work in five and a half hours - I wonder if I can phone in sick and get away with it?
I also have to report to being a little naughty. I had a piece of battered fish 'cos I had some bad munchies. It was only a small piece so I hope it wasn't too bad, but it was still quite naughty!

. But boooooy, did it taste good at the time! lol!
Can't wait for next week now, it's our works xmas party and it'll be my penultimate chance to get drunk before my birthday in the spring. I'm going to be aiming for a 10 out of 10 - and I'll try and budget my cals for it too!
ps, if you're wondering why it's my penultimate chance, I only let myself drink on special occasions otherwise it gets out of control. A few years ago it got to the stage that I was getting drunk 6 nights out of 7 and drinking was a real habit that was hitting me financially as well as physically. I managed to eventually kick the habit but didn't want to give it up altogether (lets face it, getting pi**ed can be real good fun!

) so I came up with the plan of letting myself have one-off special days. The next one is the works party, then new year - after that, it's my birthday in May (unless anything else crops up in between).
I'd like to finish by saying thanks for your support guys, it really is appreciated and truly does help. It's a battle I'm fighting and I'm so glad to have you all on my side

.
I think that seeing as I'm tipsy, I'd better end by telling you all that I love you
