The World Goes Round

My favorite type of drunkenness is the stage between tipsy and drunk. I enjoy this particular stage the most because when you lay down, or close your eyes, it feels like your spinning.

Most people don't like that feeling at all, but I do. I actually find it to be very relaxing. It almost feels like your being rocked to sleep. That evening when I do finally go to sleep, I am out for ten hours or more. I wake up feeling refreshed, and typically not hungover.

The reason why I don't wake up hungover is because I always drink water while drinking to offset the hangover. Not drinking water would be a rookie mistake.

Back to the subject at hand...

At the spinning stage I also tend to have more fun. Apples to Apples gets more interesting, conversations with people who I can't normally stand become tolerable, at this stage I just don't give a fuck. I am more chill than a five year old on Adderall.

The balancing act of reaching this stage is more difficult... drink too much and you throw up, not enough and you lose interest in drinking all together. All the pieces of the puzzle have to come together if I am to get to this stage (mood, environment, beverages, people, games, conversations, etc). Without it, it's just not even worth killing brain cells.
