so true, i try to relive them with epic gaming sessions and drinking bouts with the lads, but they are becoming increasingly scarce. drinking bouts being replaced with 'dinner parties' or wedding receptions!

My current Drunk/stoned spree is 16 days in a row now. The challenge was to make it till the 22nd of July (when I leave for europe) but I dont know if my body can handle all that drinking. Hence why every few days I just get stoned instead of being drunk. (can someone tell me how I maintain a full time job? I have no ****ing clue)
