> I keep drinking ... two weeks without, and then I went out last night and got more-or-less hammered. Well, I didn't black out, but the night is definitely fuzzy.

What made last night different than the 13 nights that came before?

> Thank god I didn't do anything else.

I suppose.

> I am getting out of New York -- it is just not healthy for me here.

The geographic cure doesn't work, ya know. No matter where you go, it so happens that you come along.

> I know I've asked this before, but can a few months of heavy drinking -- say once or twice per week -- cause permanent brain damage, dementia, or other long-lasting side-effects?

No. Unless you try to drive, or something, and have a wreck.

> I'm worried now because I feel like crap today, and have felt a bit "off" lately in general.

You're supposed to feel like crap after a binge. <wink>

> It's probably just a hangover, but I hope I didn't do any permanent damage this time...
