When I think of one cold beer I know I am lying.

Of all the beers I have drunk how many were 1 cold beer a enjoyed?

It is a lie and I know it.

Beer represents hours of wasted time, days of wasted life, emotional numbness, digestive problems, bad sleep, hangover when you wake up, weak attentivness, weak spirit, tired skin – it just goes on.

There is nothing positive to say about these beers.

Enjoy the games and drink soda with lemmon.

Thanks. Just found some hot nachos. And it's going to be a good game. Still really a hard proposition.

It'll just make you have to pee. Then you'll miss something good.

I am thinking sadly of the two young men who had a similar outings end tragically very recently in Philly and San Fran. Both fell over railings, and alcohol was believed to be involved in both cases. Play the thought of drinking all the way through....for most of us it is the first drink that can lead us into a lot of trouble. (sorry, not trying to be morbid, but I thought that concept might refocus your lens )

It's your alcoholic mind making you think everyone else has one. You are just drawn to the people that do. Many are drinking soda, and many are drinking nothing at all. You are there to watch the game anyway, right? What you are drinking is irrelevant - enjoy the game!

The worst part is alcohol was not my doc. And my doc is no where to be found. We are sitting on the aisle. And the beer hawkers are going
By. Maybe
I am just fixated on how often they go by. It's become a fixation. I am playing this all the way through and it doesn't end well. It gives me permission to pick up my doc when. Of ER
Home. 60 days will be back to 1 if I drink.

I love your posts trying to make that "nasty, over-priced, ball park beer" sound, well, nasty, in an effort to help him resist the urge! We all need someone to put it in a different light sometimes and the humor works too!!!

Howdy. When they did last call and the disappeared, it occurred to me like you all said - how much obsession I was throwing at this beer thing. My
Mind was in obsession mode. I wish it wasn't like that. Next time I'll know better. And prepare.
