i didn't even know it was last night until this morning

Oh, there have been so many.

Like the time I was at a business offsite and was awarded this award and don't even remember walking up to get it. Apparently one of my coworkers thought I'd need help walking up there. In the same night, people were clapping (I was in a blackout and was only told this) and when they stopped I did not! Cringe here.

Or the time I got so angry and went for wine and called someone so much I filled up his entire in-box with messages like eff you, eff you. Granted, it was well-deserved but still.

All of these things just pain me so much and I guess it's good to relive them on occasion so I don't go to the store this morning for wine. :upset:

Up to no good

Before I was married with children, and used to go out "now and then" I had a great fondness for stealing things when drunk. Not valuable, expensive, or even useful things - just "stuff." For the feeling, I suppose, that I was "getting away with something" - and I was. Here are a few examples of my ill-gotten gains:" a roll of toilet paper, a gravy boat, a wheel of cheese (off a buffet) and last but not least, a huge floral arrangement. (This nicked off a table in the banquet hall during dancing... I danced off the floor with it SIGHT UNSEEN -- because, as everyone knows, when you are drunk you are COMPLETELY INVISIBLE. (Marvellous, isn't it?)

To echo others: Some months ago, I was wondering around the house with a splitting headache. My daughter, early twenties, asked me if I'd been drinking. I hadn't. "Well," she said, "maybe you should drink something."

"Why would I do that?"

"Because you drink a lot. If you drink a lot and then stop, you're going to get a headache."

_That_ was horrible. She wasn't angry or condescending or disappointed, just very matter-of-fact. I couldn't argue with her; she was right.

Garden umbrellas? You rock! (Thank gawd we don't have to do that anymore - so strenuous and tends to soil one's party frocks - ha!)

Way too many shameful, embarrassing things to even remember! So many mornings of scrambling for my phone to see who I called, sent a text to....apparently I've had hour long conversations that I have no recollection of the next day. Lord only knows what I said! Once I had quite a long conversation with my BOSS on Facebook, apparently I was telling her how one of my co-workers like to have sex with her head in the toilet
Soooo many mornings with the "sinking" feeling in my gut of "Oh God, what did I do/say?" I'm really hoping for no more of those mornings!

I'll start.

A few months ago -- and after way too much to drink -- I sent an instant message to my then-girlfriend. It was, uhm, fairly suggestive. Not obscene or grotesque, nothing involving animals or vegetables, but the intention was clear. Well worded and paced, it was meant to be...scintillating. It certianly was

Unfortunately, I was a bit blurry. Fumbled the address book.

I woke up the next morning and saw the message still sitting there on my blazing laptop (I'd passed out before putting it to sleep).

I'd sent the message to...my boss.

I'm still cringing.

Actually it is hysterical.:H I just logged in and read that about Mario getting drunk in Portugal and waking up in Spain and laughed til the tears ran down my face. Mr. Stirly is still trying to figure out what set me off!!!
I once stole one of those yellow blinkey lights they put on the road to warn drivers of dangers like construction work, potholes etc. It was at the one end of a bridge over this little river that ran through the city. Lord knows what “inspired” me to take it but I stuffed it under my jacket and scurried back to my apartment which was a couple of blocks away. I thought it looked really neat :happyme, grinning like a Cheshire cat) in my living room until I realized through my stupor that the constant blink, blink, blink could be seen through the curtains and anyone looking at the windows would see the thing blinking on and off.:shocked: I fumbled around “swimmingly” frantic, trying to find the switch to turn it off. They don’t have switches!!!:no: So I stuffed it under my jacket again and stumbled back to the bridge and pitched it in the water!! (Too wasted to think of stuffing the damn thing in a closet instead of trying to drown it……
Had a busy day today and it's still not over. See you all tomorrow. Be strong....
