OT I think I have a drinking problem.
Well I usually go to the pub across the street, mainly because they have decent Guinness, and I can walk, even in bad weather, making drunk driving a non factor.
Well, for awhile I've been getting a minumum of 1 free beer a night (Out of 3) sometimes 2 (out of 4). I don't need to order anything. as soon as they see me they bring me a pint. And as soon as it drops down low enough, they bring me another, at the most I only need to make eye contact.
Last call does not apply to me.
And tonight, to cap it off.
The bartender actually closed up and left. Saying the doors lock on the way out, and she was sure I wouldn't steal anything, and she'll see me during the week.
Man someone has my number at the least.
Oh and if I come in earlier than usually, the bartenders are actually surprised.

Hmm....is the only reason you drink because you like the taste of it? If thats the case then I don't know if that is really a drinking problem, per se. I have a drinking problem because 95% of the time I drink because I'm depressed. The other 5% is when friends come back from college and throw kick *** parties. I'm not saying I drink nearly as much as you but it is a problem for me nonetheless.

Oaky guys. I meant it as humorous. THe fact that the bartender was willing to lock up and leave while I was still there.
Sure 9 to 16 bucks is kind of heavy. But 1/2 of that is because I haven't got a family or anything, so it's as much something to do as anything else. And I rarely get drunk.
I won't argue that I might drink a little more than I maybe should, but it's not a primary focus, and I skip it if there's anything else to do. Hell a new ER is enough to keep me away.

I usually get dragged down to the night clubs with the barman and ladies from my bar. Plus I have all of their mobile phone numbers. AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

And apparently a sleeping problem. Lied down a couple of hours ago, and I'm still wide awake.
Oh well, got to get the coffee brewing, it's going to be a long day.

I don't see how getting half your beers for free is a drinking problem. It seems like all the drinking you've done at that pub so far has been an investment. Now you are getting a return on that investment. Could be beter than stocks too. I say good job! Cheers, mate, Have another pint O Guiness.
