How I nearly killed myself this Christmas

This seems to be a recipe of how not to enjoy Christmas. It was all fun when it started on the 24th of December, well planned and promising start to the Christmas holidays. As always there was plenty of food and drinks, the presents were wrapped and under the Christmas tree. It started with the first leg of the Christmas party at my place with friends and family around. I started with a bit of whisky and nearly 20 pints of beer on the first night, and that marked the beginning of my three days of binge drinking.

I only had a few hours sleep early morning on Christmas day, before beer drinking continued again at one of my relatives place. I can not believe I drank more than 20cans of beer again on this day. It all seemed like it was never going to end.

This led me to my near fatal fall from upstairs in the morning on boxing day. Thank God I did not have any broken bones from that fall. As if I was possessed. As if I had forgotten that I have a family and a special son to look after. As if I had forgotten that there is life after Christmas. I found myself drinking more beer again in the afternoon despite that terrible fall in the morning.

Now I’m back to my senses, still trying to recover from the after effects of binge drinking and over eating this Christmas. Over eating and drinking too much beer is not the way to celebrate Christmas, I nearly killed myself this Christmas.

Now it’s back to work, will give myself a few days to recover and hopefully I have learnt my lesson, on how not to celebrate Christmas. I’m I looking forward to the New Year celebrations? Yeah!! why not? I think I learnt my lesson.

    LOL, that was funny. I think it’s a Zim thing – drinking til you can’t drink no more. I can’t believe you drank that much.

    Thank God I did not drink as much New Years eve, only had just over ten pints I think, coz I wasn’t counting.

    Tondy, you are right it must be a Zim thing. The amount of beer I have seen guys drink at parties is just too much when you think about it on the next day. Plus beer is just cheap here in London.
