When I was 17, I started driving and was no longer concerned with booze. I would enjoy a beer from time to time, but preferred driving and would never drink anything if I was driving.
At 18 I was in my first year of uni so drank what felt like a lot, but probably really wasn't (12, maybe 15 pints a week, spread over 2 or 3 sessions)
From 20-24 I would go out with the lads and pound 10 pints or more, at least twice and sometimes 3 times a week.
But since I turned 25, I really don't seem that bothered by booze. The last few Saturdays I have drunk no alcohol whatsoever. I went to a party on Thursday, could have stayed over and I always have my sleeping bag and a pillow in the car for such occasions. But instead I drank nothing and drove home. On Friday night I forced down a bottle of wine, but then settled down with some banana milkshake and thought "oooh, that's better"!
What's wrong with me?! At this rate I'll lost my beer monster reputation and might even be considered to be... a non-drinker.
I have a party coming up in a couple of weeks, and there will be this girl there who I want to impress... but how am I going to do it if I don't down pints or drink 12 cans of Stella? She'll think I'm a right mincer.
