EAT! DRINK! BE MARY!: TMI Questions from Sean

I am not a huge drinker. I am a social drinker more than anything, but my friends tend to consume two or three drinks for each of mine. I especially don't drink around people who I'm not out to or feel comfortable around because I tend to lose my inhibitions and am a lot gayer. However, when I saw this post from Sean at Just A Jeep Guy, I couldn't resist adding my two cents. I love these TMI questions when it's something I can relate to. So here goes:

1. Cocktails at brunch: Bloody Mary or Mimosa? Bloody Mary during cold weather, and Mimosas if it is hot outside. Both are pretty fantastic drinks if made right, but too cheap of a champagne can ruin a Mimosa and its easy to make a bad Bloody Mary if you don't know what you're doing.

 2. Do you have a favorite food/drink pairing? A good Pinot Grigio with Veal Scallopini (or Scaloppini al Vino) or linguini with clams in a white wine sauce. Of course, you can never go wrong with beer and pizza. Also a favorite is Lazy Magnolia's (a Mississippi brewery) Southern Pecan Nut Brown Ale with pecan crusted chicken is a great pairing.

 3. Beer? Wine? or Cocktails? Why? Beer or Mike's Hard Lemonade on a hot day hanging out with friends. White wine when it's a more formal event. Cocktails, particularly a margarita or cape cod when out at a bar, unless I don't want to spend much money, then it's then it's Bud Light.

 4. Red wine or white wine? White wine. I can't stand red wine.

 5. Tell me about the hard stuff. Nothing beats Tito's Handmade Vodka. It's a wonderful smooth tasting vodka, and it always gives me lovely dreams.

 6. Cigars? No, I've tried to smoke them, but I hate them for two reasons: 1) they smell like burning dog shit, and 2) I can't get the taste out of my mouth the next day.

 7. When was the last time you were hungover? Worst hangover? It's been several months since I've had a hangover, but the worst lasted about 3 days. I do my best not to drink enough to have a hangover. It was due to mixing alcohols. I keep with one type of alcohol a night, so that I want get sick. I can't mix liquor and beer or change the beer I am drinking or drink more than one type of liquor.

 8. Best hangover cure. Before I go to bed, I take three-four ibuprofen (depending on how much I had to drink) and a full glass of water. I usually don't have a hangover if I do this.

 9. Craziest/baddest thing you did when you had too much? Did you remember it or did your friends inform you? Make it a fun one! Ok, this might break some illusions some of you have about me, but several years ago, I got really drunk in New Orleans and gave a go-go dancer a blowjob while he was dancing on the bar. I remember it quite well. I am cursed/blessed with remembering everything when I've been drinking. It was slutty and a hell of a lot of fun at the time. And yes, I'd do it again if given the chance, lol.

BONUS Are you a cheap date? How many drinks does it take you get you into bed? Yep, I'm probably a cheap date, especially if tequila is involved. Tequila makes me horny, and I am not one to drink a whole lot, so yeah, I'm a cheap date. If on a date I am unlikely to drink more than two or three drinks. If out with friends, I rarely drink more than the equivalent to a six pack of beer.

 So there you have it. My TMI questions about booze.

  2. Thanks for sharing. I appreciate your honesty. It seems to me that you've been opening up more, especially in this post and the next one. Not too many people, anon or not will share that they attempted suicide - no matter the reason or cause. I understand.
