Normally it's HH on Thursday, then a Friday or Saturday.
This week was a little more because I drank Thurs, Friday and Sunday. But that's not typical.
Sometimes depending what's going on, it's not at all.

Four, basically. It revolves around football. Friday and Saturday are strong drunk candidates; Thursday sometimes.

Get "drunk"? Maybe once every 6 months. Last night I had one bourbon. Felt zilch. Sometimes I have two and feel a little buzz. Never drink more than 2 drinks normally. Sometimes at a lake party or some special occasion I will drink 3-4 drinks, but that's VERY rare.
Wait, I'm starting to sound like this guy.

bourbon or rum usually. Just something icy and straight. Only drink beer at a bar or ballgame, never at home.
Light buzz, but not enough to get wasted. Just to relax and chill. And 99% of the time I have sobered up before going to sleep, I always quit a couple hours before bedtime and rehydrate with water.
As Hank Jr sang, "the hangovers they hurt more than they used to." So I don't want any part of them no more.

I've tried a few times recently, and my brain slams the breaks before I go over the edge. It's like a self-induced experiment in behavioralism; my subs-conscience knows what waits on the other side of drunky drunk.

But I gotta be completely honest here and admit the only argument that's going on in my head about getting hammers or not is knowing how bad I'm going to feel in the morning if I do.
That's probably the only real reason I don't get shithoused every night. And I'm not sure how I should feel about that, honestly.

You don't want to get a hangover, which is saving you from cirrhosis.
But man, the effects of chronic alcoholism are no bueno. Had a buddy that went through a rough divorce and spent the next decade drinking hard. He's had to make dramatic lifestyle changes after extended hospitalization for liver damage, and a premature death may now be unavoidable.
He's in his late 30s.

Was he drinking 24x7 everyday? I'd think getting divorced would make you NOT want to drink, but I guess everyone is different.
I have been thinking about stopping drinking for a while, but I go in waves with it. My latest was when I stopped drinking for 90 days at the beginning of 2019, I never really felt any better, never saw all the incredible stuff people say that happens to them, and was entirely bored the entire time. Adding to that, I couldn't remember why I stopped, so I just started again.

Until 6 years ago, 3 drinks every night, sometimes 4. At that time, and for another year, it became 4 more often than 3. By "drink", I mean 1.5 ounces. That's a pretty good buzz, but hardly ever more than 4. Drunk happened about 3 times/year.
At that time I quit completely, stayed that way for 3 years. Now it is 2 drinks once or twice a week, been that way for 2 years.

But I drink I lot, I do. And I really don’t care. All indicators show that I am very healthy. I rarely get a hangover and I exercise daily so I think all of that combines.
I hate being alone or being alone and watching TV. My wife goes to bed early and we live close to bars. So she goes to bed and I walk down and have drinks, sometimes get straight hammers.
It just is what it is….but it’s mainly cause I am a nut bag and love to be around people.
