Today,

As I drink what’s left of my Jack Daniels, I realize that it doesn’t taste like what it used to. When I first started drinking, a few years ago, Jack Daniels would burn when I drank it, and taste good. Now it doesn’t burn or taste as good. In fact, it doesn’t really have a taste, but rather an alcoholic aftertaste that makes me wretch.

I don’t drink a Jack & Coke because I can’t handle the burn, but because I dislike the taste.

I must be getting older again. Time to move on to the next drink.
