I chase my tequila with beer

"Aleesha," I say, after I've had a bit but clearly not enough to drink, "Why is it that even when I'm drunk I still have enough inhibitions not to do anything really stupid?"

"I don't know, darling," Aleesha says. "But I'm the same way."


I need to be less inhibited. That would surely not solve all my problems.


Also, you know it's a Berkeley party where people are dancing to crunk while some other people are talking about the influence of philosophy of physics proofs. No, really.
