I guess you learned your lesson the hard way.

My husband brought home a Mojito alcohol drink last night after work. He'd never had any before, and wasn't used to the high alcohol content. The content is 15% and he's more used to 7%, and he's used to the vodka coolers. Anyways, this afternoon he decides to drink some, and didn't mix it with anything like he usually does. Full strength is a little much to some people. I had some too, but I mixed it with pop and didn't drink as much as he did. He drank about 3/4 of the bottle by himself!!! He was so drunk that he wouldn't stop talking. He kept going on and on about nothing. He pestered everyone, and wouldn't stop. He brought out the guinea pig, and forgot him. He went out for a walk and left him out. I didn't even know he was out. When I let Saber out into the living room, and she went right for him. That's how I found out that he was out. I had to force my husband out of the house so I could get some peace and quiet, it was just too much for me to handle. When he came back, he'd gone to Walmart. He tossed some stuff at me then sat down on the couch. He started heaving. I yelled at him to get to the bathroom, but he just sat there looking stupid. I kept yelling at him until he finally went. He then went to lie down for a couple of hours. You would think that would have helped but it didn't. When he came back out, he was wobbly. He came and sat down on his couch and almost instantly started to heave again. I don't know why he doesn't listen, but when I told him again to get tot he bathroom he just looked at me like I was talking in another language. I kept yelling at him. He didn't even make it to the bathroom, he only made it to the kitchen sink, and barely even managed that. Ugh. I hope he finally realizes that he shouldn't do this anymore, hopefully he's learned his lesson.

I have never understood why people will drink so much that they get plastered and lose it all. I hate to get sick, so why do something that will probably have that same outcome. I hope you get the house all back settled and fresh and get hubby all sobered up.

hi kris! i hope you're feeling better now and your husband has already made it up to you by now. well there may be something behind it. i mean if he doesn't usually do this then he might have brought the mojito for a reason. i think shouting really doesn't register in their minds because their tipsy and most, including your husband, probably won't remember a thing you said. my dad is old and he occasionally drinks with his friends. my sister and i don't mind him drinking but what bothers us is that his drunk friends drives our dad home. i don't want to think about the worst that could happen every time this happens. he's actually changed a bit now because he comes home on that same night. before we had to worry about where he is because he comes home the following day. and whenever we try to shout at him about how we were worried he would just say nonsense things. so we do a follow up after he's sober, then it's slowly registering to his mind that my sister and i are serious about it.

sometimes it takes something like that to teach him I just hope for your sake he remembers. Maybe he will wake up with the worst hangover he's ever had. I'm glad I don't drink.
