Lets Count The Drinks


What we have here is Lindsay Lohan drinking. The only question appears to be how much exactly did Lindsay Lohan drink? Here is my thing with Lindsay Lohan. I think she shouldn't be drinking at this time. However, and this is a very big however. Lindsay's problems have always been with drugs, not drinking. At this point in her recovery, I don't think she should be drinking, but I also don't think it is realistic for her to go the next 60 years of her life without drinking.

I have used the Drew Barrymore example before. Drew went to rehab to get herself clean, but she wasn't an alcoholic, or a drug addict, the problem was she was 13 and needed to stop at that time. Drew drinks now and uses some pot, but I don't think anyone considers her to have a substance abuse problem.

Many of us partied our little brain cells away when we were Lindsay's age and if we had access to her money, we might have even used something a little stronger than booze. Were we addicts or were we young?

Lindsay just needs to refrain from drinking right now because I am afraid it will lead her back into drugs, and since she has no money to pay for them, will end up being some dealer's play thing or charging some of these wealthy guys she is sleeping with on the first date.

Anyway, back to the math. Page Six says that Lindsay took a swig from a Grey Goose vodka bottle at the Box Friday night. She was with Samantha Ronson by the way. According to the NY Daily News, Lindsay had at least two vodka cocktails at a different NY club on Friday night. So, if we count the swig as one drink, and then her cocktails as two, lets see. Carry the one. She had three. OK, thanks. Hardly a disaster since they were spread over the course of the night, but not the perception she wants to leave with producers who are looking to cast a new film.

Lindsay. Drink water out and vodka at home.
