I’m not an alcoholic, but I play one on Facebook. I don’t really drink all that much, but you’d never know it from my Facebook posts, which have people thinking that I have a wine glass Velcroed to my right hand (which would be awesome, but I digress). I know that by admitting this I’m crushing […]
