Yeah, maybe. It's kinda hard to tell when the AV is jabbering at me every day. Sometimes every hour.

To my conscious mind it seemed very impulsive to me. I saw the door, recalled that they serve interesting craft brews in there and decided to sample. I was a few sips in when I realized my AV was in charge.

It was just a few sips and these thoughts raced to the front:
  1. You're not going back to work
  2. If you chug that beer (like I wanted to) wearing a tie sitting in a Whole Foods at lunchtime on a Monday, they will probably refuse to serve you another.
  3. I can probably only get 3 here before I look like I have a problem
  4. Which of these beers has the highest ABV?
  5. Is there another bar between here and the grocery store? (I don't shop for staples at Whole Foods)
  6. Which bar will I stop at on the way home?
  7. What will I drink?
  8. Should I pick up a bottle?
  9. Can I fool the family or will they know?
Gee, I might be an alcoholic.

Glad your back, nonsensical! I'm sitting here and thoughts of drinking are creeping into my head and I read this. This is just the kind of thinking I have when I start drinking. Great reminder of what this crazy train does.
