Because, you know, we need one for people like me who rarely do get drunk. Tonight, I'm bound by a promise I made to a friend in a far-away country... well, OK, Estonia, to cultivate my relationship with my brother by drinking half a bottle of rum with him. Which isn't much, but hey, it's the thought that counts. Now I'm finishing up the rum (and just a little bit of cognac), and considering going to a bar for some networking, but... well, due to my introverted nature, I'm not sure I can work up the will to barge in to some table and actually talk with people. Getting even more drunk would obviously not be the right thing to do.
So, um, I hope people are having fun tonight. I'm feeling somewhat comfortable, although I really don't like the first feelings of drunkness (slight vertigo, sleepiness, thirst, numbness in the extremities) it does get better as the... er... condition develops.
