Yes! Me too! Not with pills so much but with booze for sure, although it's everywhere. What's even worse is that I have morphed into the damn Booze Police or the Special Inspector General for Potential Alcoholics. I don't mean to do it but I find myself monitoring what everyone around me is drinking---how much, how often. Maybe trying to gauge if they too might be a drunk.

If someone says, "I only had a couple at dinner last night," I am right there thinking (not saying, of course)."No...you had two cocktails before dinner, a glass and a half of wine with dinner, and an appertif with dessert, you've got a problem, my friend."

Not that I am paying attention or anything And, yeah, aren't you glad you invited me to dinner? No drinking activity shall go unnoticed with my new superpowers...
