Dear mself: even if you are drinking on someone else's money - in this case, at a christmas party with an open bar - try to not to outdrink any two other people ut together at said party.
You will break a standar driks calculator and chuck up blackcurrant through your nose at the airport.
*grin*
But boy was it worth it. :D
Yes, back home now, and y tradition odf throwing up my guts at the prague airport when leavinbg was upheld.
I believe the photos abd vido footage form the party will be EPIC.

Jul. 8th, 2007 03:20 pmWhar we have learned from last night is that a) you CAN have a party at the Arabox and B) don;t let the boi hand out the drinks *shakes head* also, CoA finally solved witout a doubt.
One of the more enjoyable eenings I have had in a good while, despite only sleeping maybe three and a half hours. BUt it could have been worse - I am not woeking today!
Heading out to an Aspie meetup soon enough. now mucking about the net for maybe twenty more minutes.
Oh, also much amusement about the fact that the boi was wearing a t-shirt older than I am.
All in all, it is good to be back ont rack with things.

So I went to the store. Bought some stuff. Nothing unusual there. (So okay therwe were these small faux-wood tablette thingies that are gonna rock on my bedroom table but beyond that...) I also went vcia the liqor store. Intended to stock up on creme de banana, ended up buying some rriple sec and FGinlandia in addition.
Decided to buy Finlandia cause no use buying rotgut that i donpt like and feel bad about it going to waste. Good vodka is teh awesome, after all.
And so, incidentlaly, if you ever think I am getting a Problem With Alcohol.... please,t ell me so. Cause i hate to think I would go that route.
Inb other news, am looking forward to some yummy foodstuffs today... pasta salad with roast beef and cream cheese, nd bean-tomato soup with garlic and chili... should be yumy, especially with some shredded cheese and croutons :D

I have mentioned about my family's tendency to be either teetotalers or drunks in earlier posts, yes?
Well, I was woken arounde 4.30 this morning by my aunt, asking me to take her alcohol - something I sure as hell am not going to do since she is on meds and she was supposed top be a teetotaler.
It got me thinking - why am i the only one in the damn family who can still distinguish between drinking rationally and drinking idiotically? Sure I did 18 shots of tequila on my birthday, but I also stayed sober through the whole "pathetic to the extreme" thing I had thanks to a certain pop star getting married.
*sigh*
I... just feel like screaming, I guess.
Guys, do me a favor? If I ever seem tog et idiotic about my use of alcohol, please tell me so. I don't want to go gently into the haze of permanent drunkenness and lack of sense....
I feel pathetic.

The morning after
Dec. 11th, 2004 09:48 amLet's see... no hangover, but that is probbably because I am still drunk. Now I have nasty chores, aka cleaning, to do, since last night it was too dark and I lacjk lamps (got to love being me) so there is still.... stuf on the living room floor.
As it is, I am glad I am stuill standing since a friend of mine who is a self-confessed alcoholic says that he'd be in come after the amount of tequila alone I consumed last night... :D
Gakked from
hippediva I blame thee result on the fact taht I am drunk - I am usually Chaotic Evil on these.
The description is nice, but trhe whole "self-motivation" things is more Neutral Evil.... and they gforget to mention that Chaotic Neutral is often the alingment of lunatics and madmen, to quote the Baldur's gate description.

You scored as Chaotic Neutral. A Chaotic Neutral person is someone who is self-motivated to the extreme. Thier actions may sometimes confuse others, due to their lack of moral affiliation. They have little respect for laws, and avoid both the temptation of evil and a feeling of duty to do good. These people can go along with either side of an argument- as long as they benifit from the result!

ETA3: see Ara go to slweep. See Ara feell ill. See Ara get up. See Ara stumble on the cat. See Ara uke all over ther place.
