The thing about going out

Now having beers with my friend or going out are both out of my realm of possibilities for now. The reality is that I have been postponing my adventures, my fun, and putting home and personal goals first. I have been able to save some money, and for that, I am glad that I haven’t gone out. The thing about going out is, it had become a routine, and I was, quite frankly, sick of saying that I will not overspend and regardless of whatever I said, I’d end up spending more than I had planned. Another more substantial reason here would be that I am under a prescribed treatment with antibiotics, and drinking is out of the question. That could have been my argument, but I know only too well that mixing alcohol and antibiotics isn't life-threatening, and only with a few types of antibiotics is indicative to do so. So, even though I can sit down and sip a drink or two without as much as a worry in my mind, I won't be doing so. Why undergo a treatment that should have been taken a long time ago if I am incapable of remaining booze-free? While taking care of our health, we should take all of the precautions involved just to prove to ourselves that health is indeed so precious to us. By the way, partying without consuming alcoholic beverages is possible, if it would include some exciting new activity. But to go to the same old joint and connect with my former animal self, it would not serve its purpose. Fortunately, by the end of the week, and two weeks since I started the treatment, it will be over. Two weeks completely sober is not as difficult as it seems, since I first began drinking sporadically and unsatisfactorily in my late teens. In other words, the hard-core drinkers can’t conceive of a day or two without alcohol. Exercising moderation is fundamental for building character.
