I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
One reason why I don't drink is because I wish to know when I am having a good time.
I envy people who drink - at least they know what to blame everything on.
Why do alcoholics begin down the same hazardous road day after day? They are in search of that elusive window of well-being that opens when you drink your way out of a hangover and aren't yet drunk all over again. The alcoholic's day consists of trying to keep that window open.
The average, healthy, well-adjusted adult gets up at seven-thirty in the morning feeling just plain terrible.
I don't even drink! I can't stand the taste of alcohol. Every New Year's Eve I try one drink and every time it makes me feel sick. So I don't touch booze - I'm always the designated driver.
The one thing I don't consume during 'Today' - which surprises many people - is coffee. I find that a lot of water helps wake me up, without the buzz. I love coffee, but usually reserve a double espresso as an afternoon pick-me-up before settling in to do the weekend 'Nightly News.'
I feel pretty good when I get out of bed in the morning. I don't feel all beat up, which is nice.
It's okay saying sorry, but when you are drunk you say what you really feel.
Waking up sober is a good day. I love being able to wake up and do positive things, to go to the gym.
I don't drink. I don't like it. It makes me feel good.
