I'm finally warming up to the taste of beer. I just opened up a bottle of Heineken, and it actually tastes decent. I can't taste the alcohol in it so much, and without that flavor it's not so bad.
How about that?
I'm still wondering what being drunk is supposed to feel like. Tonight I drank six beers over a period of two or three hours. By the end I felt woozy and uncoordinated, but not really carefree or uninhibited. Since I'm not really getting anything out of drinking, and since drinking has definite negative side effects, I'll probably quit drinking casually.
I'm just glad I knocked down that barrier in my head that said, "You can never drink." I can drink now, if I have to, though I won't normally choose to do so. It's just nice to have that burden lifted off my shoulders.
