alcohol
I have had three drinks tonight–at home–HIGHLY unusual–and I don’t know how people do this every night. I am totally ready for a nap. I could certainly not drive. I also don’t know how I managed not to kill myself years ago when I drank far more than this on a regular basis. White Russian, shot of Irish Mist, one after the other, was about the usual. Nauseating to think of that now. Hang around people who drink a lot, you’ll drink a lot too. Don’t even think you won’t. Unless you stop drinking entirely, then maybe you can do it. Anyway, if you leave the environment of lots of people who drink, that might be enough to make you stop.
By the way, Crystal Light Lemonade with Limoncello and Myer’s Rum is DELICIOUS. And low-calorie! (Relatively.)
Also, I have corrected many, many typos. You would not want to see this post before I had done so, as it probably looked like one of those South Seas clicking languages.

Hmmm, don’t think I’ve ever tried any of the drinks you’ve mentioned (and that’s saying a lot). I do have a bottle of Limocello in the fridge that I got as a present at Christmas, but haven’t cracked it yet. Looks like your in for an interesting night.

I haven’t touched Irish Mist in 20 years but I do have a White Russian maybe once every couple of years or so. I rarely have vodka around and milk out of a bar bin completely grosses me out now, so I only make them at home. Limoncello is really, really good. Better in Italy, naturally. The homemade stuff is the best. Try it plain, over ice, in addition to mixing with lemonade.
