Basically I want to see how my drinking measures up to other peoples. I am going to see the Pogues next month though, so I imagine I'll end up drinking then.
How old are you?

And, also, i believe you have a girlfriend, so that does change things also.. when i was living w/ my ex girlfriend i barely drank.. but i also worked strange hours on the weekend.. so we would drink occasionally when people came over, but didn't go out to the bars more than once or twice a week at the very most..

now that i'm single i'm always out w/ my guy friends drinking.
I'm 28, I tried to put that in my last post but it came out as (2.

Being single definitely increases alcohol consumption, I have no doubt about that.
oh, gotcha.. yeah, being single with no obligations to hang out with someone is great most times..

28.. you're still in your prime . i'm 24 next month, i'd like to think i've got a lot of years of drinking fairly often left.. Thing is i live in the smallest state in the US, while it has plenty of fun places to go, it still gets old, so now that i'm making more money it's a lot easier to go to NY for a weekend and not worry about what i spend.. boston is always a good alternative too. if i get a heavy enough rotation going then i'll be drinking for a while.
