The more you drink, the happier you are, at least at the time. I drank 2 16oz Steel Reserves (8.1% alcohol), finishing my last sip about 30 minutes ago (2:25)(I can even subract 20 from 2:45 to correctly get 2:25, though I had to delete a few errors). From a call on my cell phone, when I started drinking, it was 12:35 (Science is not good if it can't be repeated. Never mind I am one person whose receptors are always changing.)
I had some other news but am trying to remember...
Oh yeah, now I remember. I used to think that you feel good when you are going up, but feel bad on alcohol when you are either going down or the rate of climb is slowing. Not 100% sure on this. This may give you a prediction on how happy you'd be if you accomplished your goals, though not necessarily how happy you'd be if you said at that level for a year (got to remember those brain receptor sites. What are they really? Just areas where if a molecule bumps into, it has some leverage?) But my original plan was to drink just one beer, and ride it out. Well, that was the plan, but I had a 6 pack of these, and felt the happiness wearing off too soon. So I grabbed another. Wow! I feel much happier now. For many simple math reason I won't try to explain, I doubt the rate of increase in receptor activity has increased from the second beer. I think just the absolute level of GABA receptor activity has increased (they discovered alcohol acts on the GABA receptor in 2005 or 2006. The solvent effects don't explain it at the right dose by other models).
I forgot where I was going with that thought. But my new question: does this prove I'd be very happy if my absolute success increased a lot, or does it just prove I would be happy if it went up a lot more in a short period of time? Or is it compared to our childhood success. Do we need to know every biochemical pathway to answer that question? Or is it compared to our expectations?
Place your bets:
Will CCS finish the 6 pack gradually over the rest of the day, or call it quits at 2 cans? Fall asleep at some point? Get work done since he has no anxiety about starting the work? Or just go to different forums spilling all? Not sure, but I feel it wearing off slightly...
