Yeah - I get that. I drink alot, but I just sorta sip all day, never really getting a "buzz", but my friends all seem to wanna "catch up" and drink what I drink in a day within a couple of hours.

I'm the same with weed (it's legal here ya know ) - just a puff or two now and then, not bowl after bowl, joint after joint to the point where ur train of thought keeps getting derailed . . .

Anyhoo - congrats on your success with the "battle"
