The Fatal Glass of Beer

Thanks to Carol for a comment on Post #3. It puts things in perspective to reflect that the social problems caused by abstention from alcohol are nothing compared to those caused by drinking.

I'm looking forward to a new surge of energy and optimism . . . any day now . . . hello? I'll need it once the academic year begins. Two weeks from today I'll be in front of students again. I remember how much I looked forward to a beer after class. I'll have to devise some other reward. How about not delaying bedtime?
