How times change

Once upon a time, I really liked alcohol. I liked to go out to bars on a near-nightly basis and I had a lot of fun. I don't think that I had a problem with alcohol, but there were several mornings when I woke up and couldn't recall where my car was (I somehow found a ride home). Since I started taking my meds a couple of years ago, I can't drink much at all anymore. I was able to tolerate the headaches that came with drinking for a while, but now they are nearly intolerable. After only one drink, my head will be pounding. It's gotten to the point where if I see people on TV taking shots (which I used to do a lot), I almost start to gag. This is all probably a good thing, but I do miss some of my favorite drinks from time to time.

I only mention this because the gagging thing just happened while I was watching TV :)
