I never do someting I don't really want to, when I am drunk. Even in times when I don't remember excerpts from the events that took place, I know if I had a choice, I made one.
Of course, this excludes: Falling down, causing other things to fall down, vomiting, sometimes even wetting one's self - These are things no one wants to do, yet have no control over.
But we, as people, do have control over drunken love.
For example: I tend find the the ugliest people attractive, when I'm drunk.
I like talkers. I like people with ideas. I like to listen to people talk to me about their ideas. Most of what they have to say is remarkable - Because I am drunk.
They usually impress me with their wit, intellect or ability to make me laugh. I mistake this as cuteness, or charm, all the while ignoring the fact that they really aren't half as witty, intelligent or funny as I imagine. I easily forget that none of what I feel is real. Because I am drunk.
I've gotten into the safe habbit of asking myself, "Self... Let's be serious for a minute. Would you even look twice at this person if you were sober?"
I try to do a quick internal assessment of bad qualities vs. changeable/settleable ones, even if it is for one night. Then I realize, I can't reason like this. Because I am drunk.
Which leads to the default conclusion, "No, I would not."
Abort, abort. It ain't worth it.
I say, "Well, it was nice to meet you. I gotta go."
And try another one. Because I am drunk.
