sleep/drink ratio

When you’re a working stiff, and have to drive 20 - 30 minutes to get to the club and you go out on a weeknight, there’s this magic moment when you suddenly realize that

1. You’re too drunk to drive home, but

2. If you wait around to sober up, you’ll be too tired to drive home

Neither of which is reason to go home with the clingy alcoholic who propositioned you 15 minutes ago.

Proper procedure here is sober up, drive 10 minutes, pull over, sleep for 30 minutes, drive another 10 minutes. Or go home with the independent alcoholic who propositioned you 5 minutes ago
