when i'm walking along street, many times the locals offer me the local liquir "raki". today i got excited talking to the local men about the political situation in burma,( oh yeah these folks know what's going on the world) of course they gave me lots of wine that they made. i got too wasted and i passout on the street, fortunately shawn found me and rescued me.
at this point, i'm thinking about quiting alcohol. but when the locals offer me drinks, i can't say "no" to them. that's rude. this is the best way to connect with the locals.
maybe i should check out the next AA meeting in turkey...yeah...i should.
