Last time I was shit-faced drunk was at my husband's annual company gala in January, boy was that a hoot...

If I am THAT drunk, which is a rare occasion these days, my memory gets very spotty and I am usually falling down or tripping when I try to walk... but everything seems just a bit silly to me, and I don't care if anyone notices how drunk I am (usually they are quite drunk, too). I kind of forget where I am, what I'm doing, and maybe even who I am, to some extent.

It's not pretty.
Anyway, like everyone else, I prefer to get mildly intoxicated over a bottle of wine with my husband or a few beers at a party... nothing serious. There was a year or two of my life when my habit was to get shit-faced drunk at any occasion with alcohol (a real charmer), but I've tried to make those events fewer and farther between. The main problem was that I just stopped drinking water and ended up taking in only alcohol... so my goal lately has been to try and drink as much water as alcohol, and it usually leaves me feeling fine the next morning.
