Ok, so I'm damn wasted, and there are many updates that should come before this, but I feel like this needs to be recorded . . . so I'm going to do it now.
So there are basically two states of thought when you're drunk. technically, there are three, but the third: "I'm so fucking pissed I have to boot and all I want to do is get everything out of my body so I can feel good enough to pass out" doesn't count. Well, it counts, but I'm going to disgard it in this analysis because it is a major extreme. In some people's case (i.e. me), not very extreme, but generally speaking, it's an extreme.
So we'll consider the two basic scenarios. You're drunk and you have two objectives and which one you have has everything to do with the circumstances you're dealt. Perhaps this is too much of a generallity and does not account for every possible situation, but it represents the majority. OK, so either you're talking to/dancing with/exchanging multiple glance-connections with one or more individuals of the opposite sex and you're thinking, "man, all I want to do is hook up with this chick/guy." Otherwise you're thinking, "Man, I wish I had a girlfriend/boyfriend so I didn't have to deal with the stress and formalities of standard college-courting ." Of course there is the transition state. The, "I'm perfectly drunk so that I need not assign myself to one status as I'm still scoping my options even though I know I will end up in one of the two catagories shortly," however, this state is so ambiguous and fleeting that it's not worth considering. Either you're not that drunk and the world is at your fingertips (or so you think) or your too drunk and you desire immediate (positive)resolution.
Yeah, beautiful attempt at a coherent argument, asshole. Wow, now I'm insulting myself in my own journal. I've reached a new low. Please pray for me and may God have mercy on my soul.
