the sweet spot

so lent has come and is long gone. I failed. didn't even make it one full week.

and I keep wondering: why?

I am not an alcoholic.

that's just not how I see myself.

I drink to excess occasionally. I drink to a place called "planet novacaine" every now and again. sometimes I'm a sipper. sometimes I'm a gobbler. sometimes I stick with water. but who doesn't like a cold bud light draft and a game of cards?

I am thirsty. parched in fact. where is the drink that fills me up?
