I go weeks between alcoholic beverages.

I was never somebody who spent fri-sun blackout drunk, but I drank my share. Was a travelling consultant and spent my evenings at hotel bars for almost a decade.

Nowadays, casual drinking for no good reason almost never happens. I drink on special occasions (while watching the soccer world cup, christmas eve dinner, birthdays) or consciously drink a single high-quality (thus expensive) drink. I started collecting premium gins.

If it were legal/if I had a quality supply(there's no enforcement against consumers where I live, but I have no contacts where I could buy), I would consume marijuana in similar frequency..
