The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Befuddled With Liquor

befuddled with liquor
hearing noises in the distance
unclear fuzzy thinking
faculties blown
lah-lah-land feeling
outer space beyond comprehension
inhibitions gone
someone maneuvers your body
you do not care 
fences gone
whatever happens happens
a dangerous place

A good warning, it’s been a long time since I’ve been this drunk. Fortunately I was not dressed provocatively at the time. ;0) The women I was hanging out with didn’t take advantage of my diminished state.

You were one of the lucky ones, Richard, and I am glad for you. Many were not as lucky.

That final line’s precarious! So true and haunting.

I am warning people who will never read this, as they are too young to get on this site. Ha!

Oh my, I believe I have been to that place, and never wish to return. Excellent feel to everything, which made me slightly woozy. Wonderfully so. Great write. Ann

I knew some could relate probably. I was surprised how many are so honest about it. One tiny sip and I am under a table asleep.
