When I was a kid I wanted to be a famous inventor. I had this idea that people could stop wearing glasses by getting a prescription car windshields. There are SO MANY drawbacks, but as a kid you don't think of those things.

I once drove drunk. This was long enough ago the statute of limitations has expired. I shouldn’t have done it, I was really lucky that I didn’t hurt someone or get arrested. For the next 15ish years that I still drank, my limit was 1 drink if I was driving.
This was before Uber & Lyft were a thing, but I still could’ve made arrangements with the bar manager “look dude your bartenders kept serving me when I was visibly drunk, so let me leave my car here overnight without towing it so I can take a cab home, and I won’t say shit to anyone.”
The fight that helped put my one relationship in limbo.
