Yeah, neither of us wanted to catch it. Plus I've always been rules-oriented, so it was no big deal for me to impose restrictions on myself and keep to them.

We had a nice time at the dinner. It made me realize how much I missed socializing in restaurants and bars. I still haven't been to a bar. Actually the restaurant was also the first time I've had a beer in ages. We never drink at home, so I almost forgot what beer tasted like.

TIL a new word:

Glad it was a good time!

Oh gods I’m so bad at using slang and forgetting that it’s probably not international!

Probably not a bad thing to not drink at home. My MIL has a home bar and it’s funny af watching her try to balance her balance amongst the booze shelves.

Ha, it's good, though. I like to learn new slang.

Yeah, neither of us comes from big drinking families. My parents only drank on holidays or on rare occasions if we went out to a restaurant. I experimented some in high school and college, but was never a fan of getting wasted. I prefer a mild buzz.

Same. I’ll go over six drinks in a night for a special occasion but otherwise it’s just drinking one because I like the taste. Can’t do beer though. Spirits or terrible sweet white wine plz.
