AlpineK Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 Ok well I'm not really drunk, but I did go out and have my first beer in almost exactly one year. I got the go ahead from the doctors today, so I got a friend to take me out to the Wedgewood Ale House for a drink. :moondance: They told me to keep it to one drink a day, but I'm pretty god damn happy. The next thing you know I'll be driving. Quote
TREETOAD Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 How many beer are you allowed to have before you can drive?? Quote
DirtyHarry Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 Kurt, get me some medical marijuana while you still have the connections. Quote
catbirdseat Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 I'll bet that beer tasted pretty damn good. Quote
pope Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 Just think of this as part of your rehab. You're not quite 100% until your liver is back in shape. But seriously, whatever you do take it easy and enjoy the opportunity to wake up to see a new day. Quote
AlpineK Posted June 5, 2007 Author Posted June 5, 2007 So what kind of beer was it? It was an IPA. I'm a big fan of that kind of beer. It was a Wildcat made by the Snoqualmie brewery. Quote
minx Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 hey kurt-- they sell the wildcat IPA in 22oz bottles also. maximize your one beer a day! Quote
mattp Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 They told me to keep it to one drink a day... Doctors are always saying stuff like that. Next they'll tell you that smoking is bad for you or that you should wear a helmet when riding a motorcycle. Quote

minx Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 and btw, good job on being such a well behaved patient! Quote
AlpineK Posted June 5, 2007 Author Posted June 5, 2007 and btw, good job on being such a well behaved patient! I wish I could remember some of the stuff when I was first in the hospital, but by all accounts I was saying some pretty funny stuff. Quote
Weekend_Climberz Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 Sounds like it's almost time for another pub club :tup: Quote

Robby lived next door to us here in Sequim for several years. Never saw him wear a helmet, but saw him drinking a lot of beers. Bottoms up, AlpineK! Quote

They say people with such injuries are quite "uninhibited" at that point in their recoveries. Quote
olyclimber Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 Nice work Kurt. Best of luck in reconditioning your liver to accept the punishment that we all know it deserves. I have pummeled my liver in to submission since my illness, and clearly after getting coddled with dialysis it needed a good beating. Quote
fenderfour Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 At this time, I am not drunk and I'm coming to the realization that today would have been better if I were inebriated. Quote
