Alcohol in the bloodstream

When I was a kid I overheard a discussion about how Blood Alcohol Content meters worked. Something about alcohol staying in the bloodstream after it was drunk.

For the longest time I believed that alcohol just accumulated in the body, never going away.

I didn't drink until I was past twenty because of this.
