Why get 4.2% when you can get 7.5%

Alcohol that is! To celebrate Cinco De Mayo, we walked to a couple of neighborhood bars for some drinks. Since we were walking I thought, why not start at home? I only had 1 beer but the way my week has been and how tired I have been it was enough to get me started. We went to a restaurant first that served drinks that I feel were way too expensive, but what the hell it's not like I do it everyday! Those drinks were strong...almost felt like I got my ass kicked. Then we left to go to the brewing company next door since the drinks were cheaper and we could afford the appetizers. I saw the menu that described the beers and noticed they gave the alcohol percentages. To me it made NO SENSE to pay for a beer that only had 4.2% alcohol when I could get a beer that had 7.5% alcohol! The smart girl in me did the math...and he conclusion was to buy the 7.5% beer! Jimminy Christmas, I have no clue why but it did me in. I must be super tired this week.
On a different drinking note, I have a lovely concept: if your drink is too strong then cut it down with more alcohol that is sweeter and better tasting. Don't use juice or anything non-alcoholic...that's just silly. As my good friend of mine once said, "This drink is terrible! It has way too much mix!"

Happy Cinco De Mayo!
