Sounds like you almost have you're mind up to drink anyway. You might just be trying to justify it by it being New Year's and everything. I ended up drinking at home alone a lot. Even on New Year's last year I drank by myself at home and felt like a piece of sh*t the next 1 1/2 days. I'm 35 days sober now and I look at it this way. I've learned that when you get so drunk and have a blowout and blackout, passout, whatever, you never know what can happen to the central nervous system. It can actually cut off mechanisms in the CNS and interrupt your pulmonary system where you eventually stop breathing. This happens, especially with binge drinkers, college kids, whoever parties the hardest. I used to drink to passout and now I'm lucky to be alive. You never know what can happen do you? Good Luck
