Drinking, bubble tea, chocolate, and going out as distractions

just had a conversation about getting drunk..
thank God I know someone with 11 years' experience at it ;)
I definitely appreciate the tips on it..
(even though I'm not following Tip A.. I'm alone; depressing!)
for you trainspotters, it's not kegs of beer..
it's that vodka I bought two weeks ago exactly :P

someone else recommended drinking as distraction..
that, or consuming lots of bubble tea / chocolate..
going out to distract myself from my own head?
not sure it's going to work as well as it might..
too much stuff I'm not going to get into here..
suffice to say that I like my true friends ;)
