　　In addition to literature, Patrick's love for liquor was without limitation.His wife, who married him for his literary taste, tried to keep his consumption of all sorts of liquids within a limited scale, as she thought it would hurt his liver.One night, after having liters of beer with his friend, Patrick wasn't able to put the lid back on the bottle.He dared not go home straight away, because his wife was likely to notice he was very drunk.So he loafed around and bought another bottle of wine, and put the bottle in his back pocket"Safe landing,”he said to his friends"Likewise,” they replied.When it was very late, and it was likely that his wife had gone to sleep, he went home.He tried not to make any noise, but his limbs were weak.He slipped in the living room and fell on his back, and didn't realize that the bottle in his pocket was broken, and his bottom was hurt, until he felt some liquid that looked like blood.So he managed to apply some first aid while looking back in the mirror, and went to bed.When he woke up the next morning, like lightning, what had happened the night before linked together in his mind.He tried to think out an excuse for being out late, but his wife dashed in holding a loaf, “You've been out drinking again!”“Oh, I worked late and just had a beer...”“No, you were very drunk!”“But how did you know?”“Well, I saw the band aid stuck on the mirror, and made the link between you and that".

　　除文学外，帕特里克还对酒有无限的热爱。他的妻子嫁给他是因为他的文学品味，她试图把他对所有液体的消费控制在一个有限的范围，因为她认为这些东西会损害他的肝脏。晚上，帕特里克和他的朋友几升啤酒下肚，居然醉得连瓶盖都盖不上。他不敢马上回家，因为他妻子可能会发现他醉得厉害。所以他在街上闲逛起来，还买了瓶酒放在裤子后面的口袋里。“祝你们成功着陆。”他对他的朋友们说。“你也一样。”他们回答。等到很晚，他想他妻子可能已经睡着了，他才回家。他尽量不弄出声音，可他四肢发软，在起居室里仰天摔了一跤。直到看见地上有一些像血一样的液体，他才意识到他口袋里的酒瓶破了，屁股受了伤。他对着镜子想办法给自己采取了一些急救措施，然后上了床。第二天早上醒来，头天晚上发生的事情像闪电一样在他脑子里连接起来。他想找一个借口解释为什么回来得很晚，可他妻子手里拿着面包冲了进来。“你又出去喝酒了!”“噢，我昨晚加班，只喝了一杯啤酒……”“不对，你喝得烂醉!”“可你怎么知道的?”“哼，我一看见镜子上贴的创可贴，就把你跟那种事联系上了。”
