September Where I Come From Challenge

This meme is called 2017 September's Where I Come From Challenge

This challenge is based on Kenny Chesney's song "Back Where I Come From".  Suzanne over at PS-Annie! and McClendon villa has included home-and hometown-related questions to round out our 30 days of posts.

Come on and join in.  It will be a blast.

Today’s question is:

8. How old were you when you took your first drink of alcohol, if you ever have? What were the circumstances surrounding that moment?

I took my first drink at about 7 or 8 years of age.  My parents both drank and did not care if I did.    At first, I did not like the taste.  

When I was about 16, I started drinking the occasional beer.

The first time I was ever carded was on my 18th birthday.

18 was the legal age for beer back then.  I was carded in my father’s best friend’s store.  

On my 19th birthday, two friends came up to my house in Spartanburg, South Carolina.  They fixed me their version of a screwdriver.  It was mostly vodka with a little orange juice and a splash of cherry juice.  The second drink was vodka with a splash of orange juice.  The third drink was just vodka.

The next morning, I threw up everything my body could find.  Then, I got the dry heaves.  After that, I threw up two things that looked like something a young man might need later in life.   I threw up some more.

I cannot look at vodka anymore without wanting to puke.
