I am not an alcoholic.

Hello everyone who might be reading this;
we don’t know each other – not yet, even if with this blog I want to change that.

This is something that gets said quite often when I first meet someone new: I am not an alcoholic.

Yes, I like beer and white wine. Yes, I like to get tipsy.
Yes, I do drink on a daily basis, a glass of wine or a couple glasses of beer during dinner: it helps me unwind after a long workday, especially when Mr. N comes in play, and it helps me sleep better too, or at least it feels like that.

No, I don’t like nor do I drink spirits or hard liquor, how do you say it in English, I don’t know because even when abroad I don’t purchase nor drink superalcolici.

No, I don’t drink beer because I am feeling extremely sad or happy: I just have that single beer everyday at dinner because I’m used to that. And I spend quite a lot too, always treating me to quality stuff, so I can’t afford to just go and get wasted the single I’m feeling down: I have to “ration” it.

What have we learned today?
I like my red ale, I like my Guinness, I like my craft brewery light and fruity or black as the soul of Satan, I like my Poretti and Moretti regionale.

What about the weekend? you may ask.
Well… A bit of alcoholism may come in play. But only on a Saturday. That’s healty. I swear.
