I quit drinking...
... for this week at least.
For some reason unbenownst to anyone, my co-worker Linda decided that we should all drink... on a Monday. Now this made no sense to me but seeing as how my other two friends would rag on me, I decided to go. Poison of the day was sprite + belvadere.
Everything was fine and dandy until Linda decided that she wanted to play drinking games. Unfortunately someone was able to produce a deck of cards, and the game was "@sshole".
... everyone got wrecked badly. Especially Linda, although she was a trooper most of the way until that one last drink which flipped the switch into total insobriety.
The extent of the damage was not known to me until the next day, when I had to wake up at SEVEN O'CLOCK. This new phenomenon that I experience was the "hangover." One of my coworkers kept prodding me to drink tons of water. Thanks to her advice, I reverted back to normal after lunch. Suffice to say, it was not one of my best mornings. I am glad that I didn't throw up (can't say the same for one of my co-workers). I was actually a bit more attentive in class come to think of it. Weird ...
Anyways, I don't even really like alcohol all that much. Except for the good stuff like Sangria's. No one will believe me tho, when I say I don't really drink. I CAN drink socially, but it's nothing I really look forward too. I haven't really bought any alcohol except for some Barcardi O, most of the time it's my friend shelling out dough for the stuff (although I did buy a round of shots / beers a few times).
Anyways I quit alcohol until Saturday when the class goes to the casinos. No more drinking games for me (w/o good reason). ¶ 11:08 PM
