Is this thing on?
So here I am at home, drinking a glass of The Footbolt 2004 from d’Arenberg and enjoying the fact that there is a magic coincidence of both getting broadband at home and this site online in the same week. The former is attributable to a recent change of address, and the latter to a lack of initiative. But both are now safely behind me, and here I am.
First off, it’s really great to be here. I should probably start with a bit about me. As I said, I’ve recently moved, and with that a great number of things in my life have changed suddenly. I’m seeing that as a good thing, after three years of not a whole lot changing. Also, I enjoy a good drink now and again, with “now” being the operative word for the purposes of this site. While I’m not promising that I’ll be completely plastered every time I post, I aim to only write when I have a glass or bottle at hand.
And I would like to start by just stating for the record that there isn’t any point to this site. To paraphrase the Rakes (who translated and covered Serge Gainsbourg), I’m just a man with a blog. Nothing I write will change your life, but to be honest if you’re headed to a site called drunk.com to have your life changed, you have problems. I suggest contacting one of the well-meaning people who want this site to be dedicated to helping those with alcohol-related issues.
That’s it for tonight. Comments are welcome, but this site is really about me. If you have something you want people to see, get your own site.

Honestly, I’m trashed, and the only person still concious. I’m bored, drunk, and wide awake. By no means is your writing a path to enlightenment, but it’s funny… who wants to think TOO deeply when they drink? From one alcoholic to another, I can relate to the random drunken thoughts. I really like how you keep the site anonymous. Definitely a better approach.

word up! I take it this is the one month anniversary or something since this blog.

Has it been a month already? Not that there’s a whole lot happening with the site or anything, but this is probably more than I’ve ever put in a diary. And it’s just nice having this knowing that if there is anything I desperately need to post, I’m sorted.

haha yeah for sure….I usually check up on the site when I’m here at work. Usually the only thing I blog about is about whats going on with the band
(see website http://www.myspace.com/noarrowmusic)
and usually thats not a hell of alot but I manage to fill up almost a good two pages worth of text….on the thought of that: I can’t remember if I was ever drunk while blogging!
