Giving Up Drink
Posted on Sunday, October 29, 2006I phoned Wrinkly Paddy, and I said, Pat, I’m thinking of quitting the liquor.
After a long, long pause he said, Why?
Well, I said, I think I’ve been going very heavy on the booze lately. Waking up every morning recently feeling like shit, can’t get out of bed, late for fucking work.
But Bock - Paddy says
And I find lately that I’m extremely aggressive towards people in the pub. You know, sarcastic, loud, unpleasant, overbearing.
But Bock -
Shouting at people.
Bock!
Lately, I find I’ve become very selfish and inconsiderate.
Bock, will you let me talk?
Arrogant, almost.
Bock, shut the fuck up!!
Oh, sorry, Paddy. You were trying to say something.
Bock, it isn’t the liquor.
Isn’t it Pat?
No, Bock, it isn’t. You were always like that.
. . . . . . .
God, isn’t it great to talk things over with your friends?
Stumble it!
