well it was a friend's birthday yesterday and i actually had no intentions of boozing or anything like it ....... lemme give a li'l bit of a background on this - i may not be quite the teetotaller but then i limit myself to a strictly occasional glass of wine and an equally occasional cranberry breezer ( for those who've watched 'The Departed', ha ha very funny ! ).
So there i was sitting pretty with a virgin colada in my hand (mocktail for the uninitiated) when i figured - hell! why not ? and so, at last count i had downed (and boy! i mean DOWNED - it took me three gulps to finish the martini, the other martini drinker took about an hour !)) 2 martinis, 1 daiquiri, 1 mojito as well as sips from other unattended glasses around the table .
And since i did forget that alcohol takes a while to kick in and make its presence felt, it was about an hour later that things, umm...... well...... began to get a li'l blurred and hazy.
So i staggered home at some 3 am in the morning with the beginnings of a SOLID hangover apart from the fact that i'd been running low grade temperature for the past couple of days....... well all i can say is that it wasn't pretty !
So back i go to my ocassional wine and breezer (still cranberry for all you Departed fans!) and i'm one experience richer (in this case, it was puking out chocolate cake that turned me off the whole lets-get-wasted funda and no, it wasn't in public or by the roadside, it was in my very own restroom it's just that it wasn't fun so there !)
