I don't drink a lot these days either, because I live alone, and come from a family where drinking alone was always the first step on the road to alcoholism.
I agree that water has a taste. You should taste the water from where I grew up! Mmmm, metallic. But I like the taste.
It's not worth it to open a bottle of wine just to have a glass or two,
See, that's where beer is so handy. Individual serving sizes!

Heh. Fair point. And I do occasionally have a beer; it's just that it generally doesn't occur to me, since The Boy doesn't drink with me.
How do you stand the stuff?
NUMMY!

All I will say on this subject just now is that, while I really need to quit smoking cigarettes for so many, many reasons, I absolutely refuse to lead a vice-free life.
The wine shop that opened across the street from D's daycare (oh Brooklyn I love you so much) has single-serving box wine. I haven't had the opportunity to try it yet, but the owner assures me that it's "better than you'd expect...definitely drinkable." Next time I go for a picnic in the park I'ma pick up a few.

It seems like English, and yet?
Although, admittedly, now that I can get wine at TJ's (which wasn't possible in MD) and I'm spending a lot less per bottle, I feel a lot less guilty about it.

Math. I drink at least 80 oz. of fluid a day, else I shrivel up. Everything else drinkable has calories (or is just nast, as in the case of tea). Said calories would be more tastily used somewhere else. Also - water is fairly neutral to me - like megan said, the SF water is tasty, but it's still neutral.

Quit smoking, start kicking people in the shins at bus stations?

Tea is not nast! It's not like it's coffee or something!
