Cinco de Mayo
I saw this another site..
I'm not above using obscure Mexican battles to justify my drinking.
It just made me think of all the rediculous reasons I used to drink. I'd drink because it was fricken raining.

I was just chatting with a friend from work on facebook. Says she is going to go out and have some drinks to celebrate. Celebrate what? Asked me what I was doing. I said I am going to sit here and watch the ground crack. Sounds a lot more fun then drinking my self into a coma and winding up in the same pitiful whole I am constantly trying to dig myself out of. No thank you.

No need to mess up a wonderful period of sobriety for anything. My sobriety means more to me than anything in else. Hope everyone has a happy and sober day.
Also i hope everyone lays off the Mint Julips on Derby Day.

Cinco De Mayo isn't even a big deal to Mexicans. Who the hell celebrates a victory over the French?
Its just another excuse for the beer and liquor companies to create a "special" drinking occassion.

I hear ya, as if I really needed an excuse... 
The local news ran a story from 30 ~ 40 years ago about a Mexican man getting shot dead by police and how that caused a riot... I know that alone must have boosted alcohol sales and started a fire in the guts of young latinos who weren't even alive back then.

Those BIG bottles of wine are my undoing. 
I went out with a friend to a Japanese restaurant tonight and he just had to have a Mexican beer (Corona) just because it was today. Ugh even when I was drinking I did not like Corona.

I live in a wonderful place, close to the beach...
but it just took me 25 minutes to find a parking spot near my house. I'm surrounded by drinking establishments. I'm dog sitting, and a drunk woman decided to pound on my window to say hi to the dog. There's all sorts of drunken revelry on the streets around me...and I'm realizing:
I really don't like drunk people. Just...no. No thank you.
