You first drink or experience with Booze...


Deja Vous

Recommended Posts

Yikes, this is a painful recollection. At age 16 I was staying for a few days with my sister, who is 10 years older than me. She went out for an evening with the girls, and I stayed at her house watching TV. And sampling the Early Times Bourbon I found in her cabinet. I drank about 2/3 of a fifth bottle before blacking out. My sister found me on the floor when she got home, undressed me and put me in the shower. Before long, as expected, I started throwing up BIG TIME (including the curried chicken she fixed me for dinner). I was very sick for about 48 hours, during which I was afraid I WASN'T going to die. I got gloriously drunk a number of times later in life, but never like this- and I NEVER tasted bourbon again. To this day four decades later, the smell of bourbon makes me queasy.

First Drink was after a New Years eve party, I might have been 14 or 15, and finished Dad's Seagrams 7. Not much in it.First drunk was in college. Went to some party. They were from up on Lake Erie and wine or grape juice or something and then mixed everything up in a washtub. Not much bite, but when it kicked in, it was like getting hit by a hammer. Don't even know how I got outta the house as crowded as it was. Somehow, I staggered back to the dorm which was only a couple of blocks away. Lived in the end room of the dorm and bounced off both walls gettin there. Iwas sore all over the nextday.

Looking back on it today (what I can remember) I wouldn't call it a party.

 

I was never really a mean drunk - quite the opposite actually. I wanted to :wub: on all the pretty ladies. :blush:

 

I can count on one hand the number of times I got really mad after I had been drinking, but I never took it out on anyone else.

 

After one night of drinking and cards at an SCA event, a night during which my cup never seemed to empty itself, the only thing I could find out was "No one should be that damned polite when they are that damned drunk." How drunk? Well, I woke up about 3:30 in the morning, in a little copse of trees about 300 yards from the gaming table. Had my hat on a log to use as a pillow and my cloak was wrapped around me. Went back to the table, everyone was gone. Took my cup and my still lit lantern and went back to my tent. Couldn't bring myself to put my armor on the next day, and begged out of heralds duty.

First time I ever got drunk I was 15, we snatched a bottle of gin from a buddy's house and went over another friend's house cause his parents were out. There was 5 of us, 4 guys and a girl. Man did we get smashed. I don't know exactly what happened but somethin about a pool table and..............uh.......never mind.:blush:

 

I can't drink gin to this day! Makes me sick just smellin that stuff!:angry:

I drink and laugh in private with close friends. WIth four teenage kids I try not to glamorize it much, and role model responsibility whenever possible. By some rights I should be dead a few times over. I suppose I was lucky. Some friends weren't.

I had my first beer as a six year old. I bugged my father until he gave me a large drink. Still don't like beer.

 

My dad was a LEO and he knew every liquor store operator in town. It was a time long ago and much gentler than today. He would send me to pick up whatever he wanted, and I was never questioned even at age thirteen.

 

I became very popular among upper classmen in high school. Ironicaly, they changed the legal drinking age to eighteen my senior year. I never got a DUI although I no doubt deserved many. One night as I sat at the most prominent intersection in town, the local police sergeant walked up and tapped on the driver's window of my car. It was cold and I rolled the window down a little. He explained that the trafic light only had three colors and I should choose the correct one and move along. He then escorted me home and made sure I got inside the house.

 

As I said it was a different time and things were much more friendly and laid back.

 

 

Lol.. I think that is so true. No one thought much of driving and drinking. I can remember a friend of mines little sister ( 6 foot tall and 200 lbs, lol) Drank a case of GBX grain belt and was pulled over.. lol. She was 17, they took her home.. But times change I guess.. we did live in the best of times.

My experience would be watching a bunch of drunks with my brother, they ran over a motorcycle that belong to another friend in reverse, just as he was boosting to me how it never hit the ground.. lol

 

.. first drink I was a lot older, and found out I could not drink much... the famous table dance ... so, since then I have declined much drinking cuz I made a friend pretty mad that night.. lol So when was yours?

 

 

 

"Famous Table Dance, Indeed !!

I knew dat was you...

I know dat cross-draw wiggle !:lol:

 

 

Me and my date came home drunk as 2 skunks. Mama's BIGEST NO-NO !!

Dad held her back and said he wood handle dis.

 

So he got out a bottle of whiskey, 3 ceegars and broke open da seal, and poured 3 shot glasses full.

 

Gave one to me and da other one to my date. Said we aint leavein' dis table till da bottle is bone dry.

 

Ifin' ya puke, we'll just start over !

 

After a few shots, my date ran fer da outhouse (yep, we had one on da res). When she got back, Dad had poured her nother one.

 

I matched him shot fer shot, thinkin I was 10 feet tall and bulliet proof. Wasn't till I had to stand and stretch.......BOOMMM !!! Out like a light !! Dad took my date home !:huh:

Drunk....Not the first time, but drunk none the less.

 

Playin' football in the middle of main street, New London, Missouri........

 

 

As I got drunker, on a bet, I took off runnin' down the street in the buff (naked as the day I was born kinda buff)in the middle of a snow storm, right up the stairs of the court house, then proceeded to the sheriff's department where I was politely told to "put yer DAMN clothes back on, boy!"

 

Needless to say, it was talked about for some time. :blush:

 

That's just one of the milder things I've done. but I've settled down now to sippin' tequila from time to time, or a beer now and then. I have finally started to try and act my age. :lol:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

~EE (I'm only tree years old! ^_^ ) Taft~

Some of the stuff I have seen over booze makes me laugh, and scares the heck out of me.. when people are funny I am okay with it.. if someone gets mean, I am the first one out the door.. lol.. Or should I say THRU the door, window, what ever it takes....

Go ahead, try to explain activity in the SCA.

 

The Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) is a 21st century egalitarian view of the Victorian concept of Mallory's version of the Arthurian legends. A mix of good history, legend, Tolkien, and just plain fantasy and folklore. (that isn't the official version, just my own working explanation) Think a medieval version of SASS. (got your hard core history buffs, your fantasy (B Western) types, and in betweens)

 

You can find armored fighting, archery, cooking, costuming, brewing, armouring, embroidery, wood working, smithing of every kind, dancing, singing, music on all sorts of ancient instruments (about a third of which sound like tuned farts), likely a bunch of other things I have forgotten, and heraldry - both the book kind dealing with armourial bearings (coats of arms), and field heraldry - public speaking at courts, and being the PA system, making general announcements, calling fighters to be ready for the lists at tournaments, and going through the litanies to start the single combats.

 

How's that, Noz?

We swiped some beer from a buddies dads stock, I was about 10 at the time. We took the beer and sat out behind the our garage and started drinking. I looked up and saw my old man standing there. He said "OK you're a big man now, you want to drink?" Drink this down, he handed be a bottle of Jameson, that was 40 years ago and to this day I STILL drink Jameson. The ol man knew his booze

My first experience with the adult beverages was on a 4-H ski trip to Mount Kato in MN I was about 16 and one of the boys brought blackberry brandy. I only took a couple of sips that time. but that same boy was part of a double date with a friend of mine and introduced us to everclear.

 

When I was 17 I was dating a different boy who took me to the Christmas formal. We went to a friends house and drank pink champange, and vodka drinks. Well one of the other girls decided she had had enough so I finished her drink. We got to the dance and walked in to where the band was playing and that was the first time I realized that loud music and too much alcohol do not mix with me. My boyfriend took me out to the lobby where I ended up leaving my DNA on the chairs. Ended up in the bathroom of the place driving the porcelin bus while my best friend took care of me. The chaperone came in and asked my friend who I was, she said she did not know me but thought I needed help. Well had soiled the dress I was wearing which my mom had made for me so when I got home I hung it up nicely so I could wash it out later. I did that a few days after the incident only to have my mother show it to people the next day and tell me it looked like I had gotten the dress a little dirty. Scary thing is I still have that dress.
