Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
My parents usually decided to just shrug and have my mom drive, rather than try to explain the difference between "had a drink" and "drunk" to elementary school kids.
Do you think they could go explain it to my mom?
Signed, I top 200 lbs, I'm forty years old, yes I can have a glass of wine with dinner.
That's a damn lie, by the way, I'm still 39.
But I am really looking forward to sentences staring with, "Mother, I'm FORTY YEARS OLD...".
I was thrilled when I turned 30, because I figured any lectures my mother chose to deliver were because of her issues, because I was 30, dammit, and that meant I was a grown-up (for purposes of not having to listen to maternal lectures).
OK, I think I am taking notes on What Megan Learned on Jury Duty and I have to ask for clarification on

It's horribly tricky. I hate the drop from .10 to .08 because I think it specifically targets casual drinkers and that the greater dangers have been from people WAAAY over the legal limit. It's splitting hairs. I know it's wrong to drive impaired but I've driven so sleepy I've almost fallen asleep at the wheel and I don't think I would have been arrested if I had been stopped.
Hee. Given our limit's 0.05, I find this mildly entertaining.

See, this is why I'm glad there are three bars within walking distance of my apartment.
On the list of things not helping me sleep: earthquake, 4.4.
ita, it woke me up out of a sound sleep, and now I'm quietly feaking out and bemoaning the fact that my paltry five hours of sleep may now be more like three. Damn is the commute going to suck this morning.
