Ever make yourself a drink and it's stronger than you think?
Edited on Wed Jun-08-05 12:13 AM by SarahBelle
I worked this evening and I haven't had a drink for a couple weeks, so I said, "You know what, I'll have a vodka and tonic." Now, I'm tipsy from just that one. Why do I have to be such a lightweight?

I'm too sleepy. I have to go to bed now. :cry:

3. Not if it is my hands but I use to go to a lot of catered company parties
and the drinks there would be VERY strong. It was not until years later that I found out that those catering companies made their money by the amount of liquor that was consumed by the guests so making those drinks with loads of alcohol was in their own interest.

5. For women
It depends upon where you are in your cycle as to how you metabolize alcohol

Weird huh?

8. Very occasionally
Mainly on a hot summers day, when I haven't been eating (good me) or drinking water (bad me), and I have a gin & tonic (which I usually make getting on for 50-50) it can hit me pretty quickly.

9. I had a pretty strong Jack and Diet Coke once
It was a little heavy on the Jack and a little light on the Diet Coke. I was drunk for the entire night.
