Somewhere between the 8th and 9th decile!

Mostly because I live with my parents (and my mom will call an AA meeting on me if i start drinking every night) and because I don't have it in my budget to drink more than I do. I'm already lucky I can mooch alcohol off my boyfriend on the weekends :)

74 drinks per week? That's like getting drunk EVERY night! I hate hangovers and try avoiding them by walking the thin line of being drunk but not too much so that i won't be hungover the next morning... I fail 1 time out of 5.

What's up with people saying they did not get hungover when they were young? I've been feeling the hangovers since the first day I started over-drinking.
