With inhome isolation or distancing what's the socially accepted time to crack a cold one?

If golfing it's the tee time which tells me when. I played last weekend but admittedly thinking of staying away this weekend despite the guys still going at it. Why take the chance? Oh I know why so I can have my morning coffee with sambuca/baileys prior to tee. Then have a few beers and a couple nips of McGillicudy's that's why.
Crazy thing is I rarely drink at home so this is a "good thing" for that portion of my life. When people come over, boys for poker are really the only times I drink at home. I'm loaded with inventory because of that so no worries there but for now if I'm not golfing or watching the NCAA dance I'm cutting way down. Call me a bar fly of sorts. I had 2 Mich Ultra's the other night when my son came over and we grilled some nice steaks. Other than that zero for this week.

Now for the answer, whatever time you feel you would like to have one or a few is the right time. If you don't have weber's, teleconferences and such then wake up and throw a nip or 2 in your coffee to see how you feel. Then take it from there.

Two Ultras isn't drinking. You've failed your son.

Like I said not doing much for now. But I promise those 2 Ultra's had little do with any failure in this department! LOL

Or maybe a couple pulls off a warm bottle of Rebel Yell from your trunk?

9:24 tee time today. Good chance there's a screwdriver in my hand as we ride to the first tee. I read some stuff suggesting lots of Vitamin C and E are good for keeping off the Corona.

I told my wife that the 200 bottles of booze and the 8 cases of beer we have in the house was made for a time like this.

Side note, she’s a teetotaler.

I'd go with G&Ts right now. It was the Brits favored medicine against malaria during their imperialistic days. Quinine. You'll need to pump down about three an hour for prophylactic effect, which I'm sure you can handle, although it might get increasingly tougher to score well on the back nine.

its only been a week but it literally feels like a freaking month.

maybe because im drunk 24/7

Since summer I've been a shut in due to repeated vitreous hemorrhages. I have to sleep upright, and have both eyes covered for all but a few minutes at a time in order for the blood to clear.

I get everyone freaking out, but it could be worse.

Thanks for that. I'm going crazy because I've been housebound for a week due to combined ankle/knee injuries where I can't even drive. Now I don't feel so bad for me. It indeed could be worse. Take care and hope your condition improves post haste!

Get healthy tom and take care of yourself.

Never leave The 'Yell out Deep, never. Warms the cockles of any heart. (and burns it a little too)

 

[XLCenterFan]

I haven't started day drinking yet. My drinking now starts around 5 (earlier than usual) when I watch the local news, followed by the national news. I had a stockpile of Heady Topper and Focal. Will be gone soon though.

 

[TheRealKBuks]

My Great Aunt use to always to say only alcoholics drink before noon, and then everyday during the summer she'd make herself a gin and tonic as soon as the clock turned from 11:59 to 12:00

Partner was drinking Much Ultras today. I had the Sam Adams NEIPA. This was about 11am.

not mandating individual carts?

 

[Rocktheworld]

This has been fun but in all honesty you guys understand what alcohol does to your immune system right

 

[uconngb]

wife & i hit our first resort last year in jamaica. first morning, woke up around 10, had some coffee opened the blinds and the pool bar was packed! even better, the jerk chicken guy had his grill running.

I’m sure the chicken guy was fine.....why you have to call him a jerk??

 

[Chin Diesel]

not mandating individual carts?

Actually, supposedly yes.

They pulled all the takes out of bunkers and took away all the water coolers on the course. Gave complimentary bottles of waters instead. Bathroom shacks had doors open on the course.
Anywho, there was a group of older dudes- about 15-20 70 year olds having an outing. They were all in their own carts.
Guy I was with was a co-worker and we would have already infected each other.
So, we were a twosome and when a foursome let us play through they mentioned the one person per cart. We said we must be too young for the course to worry about us. Good laughs all around since we already figured out between their groups and us we had served in all four branches and had every war since Korea covered.

Yo dude what state you golfing in? Handicap maybe?

just a friendly UConn board and you’re one of the more interesting posters

Down south in western Florida. Handicap? Right now it's trying to get any iron shot to on its intended line. Very frustrating.

Everyone does agree separate rules for the weekend, correct? Especially when everything's locked down. I think a 2-drink breakfast is fair right now.
