Hi Patty,
I feel that I need to see/or be around my fair share of drunk people in any given month. As irritating as they may be they help me stay sober in a roundabout way. Normally when I return from the city late at night they are all on the bus. I just look, think wow they are having fun, remind myself I can't drink recreationally then laugh when they vomit and fall down stairs and then remind myself why I am sober to begin with.
Natom.
