Yes so what?!?! naw but really what do you think.

I drink about 20 screwdrivers in a week around 3 bottles of vodka weekly I would say. I don't dig beers but normally I go for around 5 a week and 2 rose wines also weekly. That's normal right? :greenguy:

3 bottles of vodka in a week. You might drink a wee bit much.....

Like thatgirlwholaughs implied: Doesn't mean you aren't cool.

Well with the screwdrivers at least you're getting calcium and vitamin C from the orange juice!

^^ Very true! But yeah, I'd say you drink too much, but who am I to judge?

I'd say you drink too much, but a) it's up to you, and B) I don't drink at all, so anything seems a lot to me!

It's not really that crazy. I mean, if you think about it, 20 drinks a week is like what, 3 a day? Thats not bad. If they are full 1/5 bottles, then maybe it is adding up but the 3 drinks a day will empty out a bottle and a half of that. Figure a few random drinks on top of those say like two glasses of Vodka on ice every day and you empty the other bottle and a half.

I mean, it isn't the best but you figure if your just drinking hard on a weekend and having 10 beers or something like out three days a week thats like topping off a 30 pack or so.

I mean, it isn't good to have that much but I think it just seems likea bunch. The real question would be are you getting drunk every night off these and drinking until your gone, or are you just having a couple glasses and grabbing a buzz?

The real question is- do YOU think you drink too much? I hate to say it but if you are posting this thread and asking us, I think deep down inside you may already know the answer

Jesus Crist almighty, 3 bottles of Vodka a week!! You'd want to be as big as a house to soke up that amount of drink.

Give it a rest for a week, if you start chewing your arm off you've got a problem. The rest would do your liver good anyway.

when do you drink these bottles of vodka? a.m. or p.m.? Are you by yourself?
its not so much the quantity but the atmosphere that can be scary. For all we know you work in a bar and like to hang out after work, in which case, it doesnt sound so bad.
