In response to "I didn't know about the not drinking thing. That's doubly impressive. Maybe I should cut it out too. -- nm" by Qale

The drinking piece was less of a "general recommended health" thing and more of a me thing, so I'm not necessarily recommending that one.

I just got to a point where 95% of the time when I drank, I just had one or two and was cool, and that of that remaining 5%, there were plenty of times when I was just fine, but what used to be the "oh, look at TFox, what a drunken idiot, ha ha" when you're single is a totally different beast when there is a family depending on you and you might run into a parent from daycare or whatever, and even if the bad night is only once or twice a year, I'm just not willing to risk the potential consequences of it anymore. And it seemed like the only surefire way to avoid it was to stop before I start. It's a lot harder to convince yourself that the fourth drink is that much worse than the third, or the fifth than the fourth, and so on. Hence, done.
