I have recently come into possession of a small quantity of
alprazolam, perhaps better known by the brand name Xanax.

I would like to swallow some quantity of this intriguing substance,
and then repair to the local tavern in order to supplement the drug
with alcohol, and then brag sloppily about my edgy lifestyle to any
potential spouse in the vicinity.

The trick is figuring out the proper dosage. The initial recommended
dosage for this drug is 0.25mg, but when using pharmaceauticals
recreationally, I tend to bump up the dosage a bit. The pills in my
possession appear to be quite conducive to this, so much so that I am
considering splitting one lavender, ovoid-shaped, 1mg tablet, and
gulping down the bigger half.

I am accustomed to the rigors of alcohol, so I think I can hold down
four drinks on top of the half-pill. Other downers have given me
little trouble in this regard. If things are different this time,
well, I'm cheerfully resigned to vomiting occaisionally in the pursuit
of knowledge, but any input from the pointy-headed biochem crew or
from the rock-star drunks or from the glitter-faced rave babies would
be most appreciated.
