Does it sometimes happen to you?
I mean, you're too busy to have lunch, and then you painfully work the day through thinking about dinner, but when you get back home this bottle of (insert drink of choice) winks at you and you simply don't eat at all, because all you want is an other glass and an other cigar. And somehow you don't feel hungry any more any way.
Sure happens to me.

Re: Ascetic boozing.
I never want a cigar. They stink. I am no Gigi. But another glass is always welcome.
Oh, and food? Sometimes, it would be wonderful if I was not me, but only knew me, and that one who is not me would cook for me.

Re: Ascetic boozing.
This frequently happens to me. Often when on a bender I can go for days without food; relying on Guinness, plenty of limes in the gin and tonics, the odd Screwdriver, Bullshots and Bloody Marys; and lots of cigarettes.

Re: Ascetic boozing.
Happens to me, like palinka, if I'm on a bit of a jag.
Usually though, my life is largely composed of stuffing my face punctuated by occasional cigarettes, though less occasional when I'm drinking. I tend not to get hungry if I have something to do

Re: Ascetic boozing.
I envy you all. I pair food and booze like a muthafugga. One leads to the other and back again. No order, just eats and drinks.
My surefire hangover cure of a greasy breakfast gets the job done every time. What rounds out a meal like nothing else? Well, you get the idea.

Re: Ascetic boozing.
The worst thing is, spending hours cooking, and having no appetite when it is done.

Re: Ascetic boozing.
I am guilty of skipping dinner for booze instead. But if skipping dinner for booze is wrong, I dont want to be right.

Re: Ascetic boozing.
Too poor to smoke. Too poor to stock up (well, at least the first is true). But when I have scotch or something it may happen, and I enjoy it. But thing is, that when I'm in this kind of mood I also would like to bite into something good for my stomach. A bowl of stew or something.
...Or wait a minute. I DO recall this happening on occasion, but I feel it's not something that happens no more. for some reason.

Re: Ascetic boozing.
Yes, but as a student it's more of an "okay, I went to one class, and that was hard work since I was hungover already, so I'm entitled to start drinking at 11am and not worry about the rest of the day."
Of course, this can lead to blind drunk late night cooking, which in turn leads to smoke alarms going off.
