Intention and action

Two elements of criminal offense are 1) the bad act coupled with 2) the guilty state of mind. Both must be present and of a person's own volition. There is also the crime of omission which is not acting when a person has a duty to act. That conversation for another time.
I do wish to raise a hypothetical for my learned collegues and lay folks out there: If I'm drinking a quart of Jack Daniels with the intention of kicking somebody's ass. Is that considered a criminal offense?
