When people are drunk why do they go on their computers? It's like the last thing I wanna do when i'm drunk.
It's quite simple. I'll go home some time between 3 and 5am when I go out drinking. There are exceptions, but at that time I choose to go home because I have endured the "fun" for long enough and feel tired of it.
Consider how I feel about being drunk. I love it as a social enhancer, I love it as a thing to do, but I hate the physical feeling of nausea. I hate the headache. I hate the weird taste in my mouth (Disclaimer - not the taste of alcohol, I drink bare cognac so fuck you. The taste that sets, and is there when you wake up the next day). I hate how people behave. I hate the way I feel when the alcohol is on its way out of my body. When I go out it's not my ultimate goal to not know where I am when the night ends, and it's no goal to keep at it for the longest possible. If someone tries to pull some joke on me as if there is anything laughable with going home early I don't allow myself to be phased. I think drinking is fun, but honestly, only because I don't do it so much. Enjoying a good movie with good company and good food is way more enjoyable to me. Anyway, I don't know what that had to do with anything but when I'm done drinking I go home and get on the computer, chill for a few more hours at home before I hit the sack. Play my own music instead of the bullshit I hear everywhere else. Maybe play some addictive flash games or talk to people on MSN. Shit, some times there'll be others I was out with earlier logged in.
So it's not like I go home and sit down with a wizard's hat and play magic the gathering, it's just one of the things i find comfortable and look at as a natural way to soothe myself into sleepiness.
