Last Drink

Sundae · 03-01-2013, 10:48 AM

Going to have my last drink tomorrow.

Why last drink?
Well, you know about my liver issues. I've now been referred to a consultant. It is teh serious. No more "mostly" abstinent,

Why tomorrow?
Tcha. I only found out today. If chucking it all in was that easy I wouldn't have a problem.

What decision am I asking for help with?
I'm not really. But it has to be my last drink. Sorry to be dramatic but we are talking about serious health issues here. I don't have cirrhosis... yet. Doc says that is the next step. Previously they've just talked about cutting down. Not any more.

I want something chococlate-y. Cocktail-y. Thick.
Yumyum.
I will let you kow.

If'n I make it through the next two days (!) I'd love to hrear your choice, if you had to make it.

I like margaritas. But that seems like more of a summer drink.

Good luck, Sundae.

For my last drink I'd choose a rum runner or a Bahama mama. Something fruity and rum based.

A triple Jack D, straight, no ice.

or a baileys.

And for your first drink day after tomorrow: a Bhang Lassi

DanaC · 03-01-2013, 12:41 PM

Had Baileys with Mum last night. Yummeh!
And yes, I do love a lassi. Not mango though. Or salted.

DanaC · 03-01-2013, 02:03 PM

Hahahah. K, I only just realised what Bhang lassi was :p Have heard the term bhang before, but hadn't connected the dots :P

Sundae · 03-01-2013, 02:07 PM

Gotcha. You cheeky Toad.

Last drink? A nice single malt like Glenlivet Nadurra or The Macallan 18. Although it sounds like you're describing a Mudslide ...

But more importantly - sorry to hear about your test results, Sundae.

If'n it's not too late, I suggest ...

Don't indulge in the "last drink" attitude. You're making a break, make it clean. Don't be dragged reluctantly into your healthier future, walk boldly into it and embrace it.

If you want to do something dramatic, go (with a friend/witness) to a bar, order a glass of whatever, then look the drink square in the eye and pour it down the sink.

"I will NOT drink you! You have no power over me. IT ENDS HERE! "

Then tap your heels together three times and say "I want to go home with David Tennant".

That ought to do it.

What's this I hear? Zengum wouldn't make a recommendation on what to drink for a dwellar with ETOH issues! He refuses to be an enabler? We may have to reconsider him as Cellar material. He may be too good for people here.
