    ...made me feel like I'm under achieving.

I was writing a tongue-in-cheek response to this, but please, let's be serious. You're the one who is really winning. Insom is still very much young, so no fault on her for figuring out her own cadence. I recall a somewhat recent Hubski post concerning drinking being "good for you", within reason, but Google has failed at providing a link. I did find this, and I almost fainted in appreciation (not really, but seriously, I love you mk) for mk, who can delete this comment as he sees fit.

    I enjoy drinking but I don't enjoy hangovers and my days of binge drinking to excess are well behind me.

Ugh. This is where I am wondering about my Irish genetics. I don't get "hungover". I have a minor lack of endorphins the morning after a serious binge, but never have a headache, never vomit, never really feel the ills. It's not tolerance, either. I can abstain from the drink for days, binge, and if anything, I'll wake up still drunk. Genes are strange like that.

Don't drag me into this; I quit drinking (yesterday around 2:00pm, because I had work to do...I may take it up again this evening).
