I rarely talk to 'outsiders' about it, when queried-love that word!-I tell them
'doctors orders'. I had a guy ask me what it was like to
'not drink' with a little smirk on his face, he is probably one of the group of
problem drinkers in the folks I race with.
Rolled snappy comebacks around in my head for a bit, didn't say anything in the end.
On the occasions where people are drinking, and they offer me one-it does happen every now and again-I simply say
I don't drink, and leave it at that.
