Went out with some co-workers for some beer tonight. I haven't drank in... s***... 3 years or so? Got a wheat beer. Not exactly sure what the hell I got because the entire menu was in Czech (as I'm currently in Prague). I asked one of my Czech co-workers to "buy me a beer that tastes good", and that's what I got.

But anyway, it was quite an extravagant place. High-end bar, I'd say. Company covered the bill. That's the best part.

With all my meds, though, the beer apparently made me amped. Is that weird as hell? I've never felt amped off beer like this... and this would be the first time I've had beer while on meds.

I'm not complaining, but I feel fantastic right now. Usually alcohol and BP meds don't mix, or so they say.

I drink a lot and have been for yeras. The only thing is that if I take my geodon before eating then have a beer...it really effects me so from now on If i am going to drink I make sure I take my geodon way later before I go to sleep.

Good advise. Good example. Think what the kids are going to think about us.
Come to think of it, what's the minimum age to be here. Maybe it's good advise after all.
