Phil, I'm glad you mentioned that whole strawberry red, headachey and heart-beating-ness (I'm just making up these words left and right) because that's exactly what happens to me. I always wondered if it was a sign of being allergic to alcohol, which my mom is. And the immune thing is true; I drank consistently (okay that sounds really bad but I mean in a social way on the weekends) for a summer and the Asian flush took longer to take effect. Then I stopped and now I'm at an all-time low in being able to drink. BOO. Efren, now you get to go back to school and come back with even more useful information for us and illegally refill my prescriptions!

Joz can attest to that, too. I guess I should be glad that I've left those days of drinking and carousing behind. Though I guess going back to school means I get to do that all over again. Uhh, yay?
