Blast from the Past: Drinking Problem?
"Blast from the Past" is where I share photos from my past that hopefully explain some of my odd behaviors. Or at least illustrate how far I've come in my 30 years.
Damn my hair is long...
This is me around 10 years old on the co-ed rec soccer team in NJ where I grew up. See the boy in the picture? He's drinking out of a sports water bottle. What am I drinking out of? A Rubber-maid cocktail shaker with a beer coozy. Thanks, parents. No, that's not an Aubin Margarita in there, though the nasty "Citrus Gatorade" flavor (which they've since taken off the market) is about the same color.
All parental fails aside, this was actually a really great vessel for sports. The top came off so I could put plenty of ice cubes in, the spout was wide enough to get big gulps without dribbling all over the place, and it had a cover that was easy to open and close. It probably helped that I didn't recognize this as an cocktail shaker until about 7 years later.

That is *so awesome*. Also, it explains *so much*.

That's fantastic. Makes me want to post the picture of me at 3 months in the beer cooler, literally "on ice."
