Last to go is bowel control. If I shit my pants (more likely bed), it was bad.

It's lame but slurring speech is always the first "impairment". If I really, really drink out I might piss myself of piss somewhere I shouldn't.

I usually don't notice until I've lost all my senses; sense of time, common sense, sense of appropriate behavior, spidey-sense...
Sometimes I can't speak correctly but I don't know when to shut up. Sometimes I can't tell if the TV is on or off.
Sometimes I don't know how long I have been sitting on the floor in front of an open refrigerator.
This morning I didn't know if it was me or the dog that chewed up the pillow.
Who the hell am i kidding i got no sense.

Does it mean you actually have a new dog?
Does the dog know that the couch is mine?

I just lose inhibition more and more to the point where I start acting irrationally.
First thing that happens is I get really really happy, then really really chatty and finally I turn into a tornado, that's as best as I can explain what happens.
The days of drunk texting/mailing are behind me thankfully.

Keep on drinking, we like that.

Coordination first, I never seem to lose the gift of gab. I really should.

The first sense lost is common sense. After that I usually dont remember.

I've seen myself drunk, due to modern technology. Unfortunately I dont slur. Just spout stupid gibberish.

The accent changes, words seem to be out of place, the head is back and laughter is LOUD! From there its just normal drunken stuff.

Oh, I continue to make sense in person and online, but let me go downstairs for more bourbon, and once in a while, (last weekend, for example), I will fall downstairs, bruising myself in the process, but never becoming unable to fetch the elixir. I believe that I need a bourbon servant--one who will fetch me my neccesary. Of course, there are the times that I cease to make sense. These are the times when you should call 911 for the ambulance. So far, the only emergency vehicles to visit my residence have been the fire brigade--oooh, they were gorgeous! They gave me oxygen. And sprayed my kitchen with stuff that was a bitch to clean up.

I fail at losing my conciousness when I ought to, that'd saved me from tons of trouble, pains and broken bones
