Tipsy... So yesterday was the first day that I've ever felt any stranger due to drinking. Don't get me wrong, it's not like I've NEVER drank liquor before, just that the only times I've ever drank in the past was simply not enough to affect me at all. The first time I think was back on New Years of 2000. In celebration of the new millenium, my dad gave me a giant beer mug filled to the brim and asked me if I was sure that I could finish it all. Over my mother's protests, I nonchalantly answered yes and ended up doing just that. While my mother carefully watched me to spot the FIRST sign of drunkenness, suffice to say that she was to be disappointed in that regard. The next time I think was at home...more than a few years ago. My dad was just taking a shot of whiskey with dinner and offered me a shot. I took it, tossed it down and then proceeded to reassure my mom that I wasn't the least bit drunk for the rest of dinner. On my way upstairs afterwards, I stumbled slightly and my mom took that as a sign that I was totally drunk and reeling...dumb woman, seriously. Suffice to say that I was perfectly okay. My cousin Gloria's birthday party had a lot of liquor floating around everywhere. While drinking casually from a bottle of beer, I noticed that my older cousin looked sorta...flushed. So I asked him how many he had, his answer was to waggle the almost empty bottle of beer in his hand. Was kind of a surprise to me to find out that his tolerance for liquor was THAT low. Anyways, that night, I had...I think about two and a half bottles of beer? Obviously, didn't even feel the slightest bit tipsy. Fast forward to last night ^.^ David comes, bearing a whole bunch of medium sized bottles. We started around midnight...I can still pretty much remember exactly what I drank...First for me was a glass of schnappes, followed by a mug of vodka and OJ, that didn't taste too good though, David tasted a little and said I put in a LITTLE too much vodka ^.^;; Lesse...after that was a straight shot of Crown Royale, followed closely by another of the same...then I tried adding some OJ to my next shot and that didn't taste too bad...but then, right when I was starting to enjoy the taste of it, we ran out of Crown Royale :( I didn't want any more of that nasty vodka...and the other drinks were too...pink and girl ^.^ So at that point, I turned to the Malibu rum and the giant can of Del Monte pineapple juice ^.^ and ooooohhh man, did that ever taste good XD Declaring it my new favorite thing, I drank maybe...3-4 mugs of that before I ended up sleeping. It's sorta strange though...I remember going on IRC but while reading it over later, I don't recall being THAT incoherent and weird...and the emails, oh god, the emails...Now, the next morning, while I remembered that I wrote and sent two of them and who I sent them too, for the life of me, I could not remember, at ALL, what I had written in them. When I read them...I just sat there wondering if I had really written them and if it was too late to take it back. All in all, it was a pretty eventful night. As regards to the liquor...will I get hooked? I can't really say. Everything seemed so freaking funny last night you know? The stupidest things seemed so funny and if liquor can do that...wouldn't it be worth it? I can assure you that I'd probably be much better company when midly tipsy than when I'm not... But somehow...I dunno, I guess only time will tell... |
