Have something that LOOKS like a 'drink'? AKA Water w/a slice of lemon in it?
Slow dance w/someone, essentially standing in place and swaying a little bit?
No more no less... the pay-backs are too much.
And, yes! The going too far and wondering IF you can get back? That aspect takes a LOT of conscious thought and planning [as much as it's hated]. The planning part always must be with us.
I truly hate hitting those brick walls with hundreds of pounds of concrete on my legs! I'll stop, rest, regroup & marshall/Command my mind and body and get home ASAP! Then crash. How long I've gone and how hard it was to get back determine the REST time I mite need to be semi-human again... without growling.
Hugs and better things! - j
