I have decided everything is funnier when drunk. I haven’t gotten drunk since I was 25 that was until recently. 10 years later I go out one night with Chl, Ginger and M&M and I have a few drinks (8, I think). This starts the drunkenness.
We were going to go to a piano bar and we were there too early so we hung out at a bar next door and had a couple drinks while we waited. The bartender was heavy handed, not that I am complaining, and the drinks were doubles. So our two drinks are more like 4. We go next door and proceed to have 4 more regular drinks. This is when I start drunken texting. I precede to text my brothers and my husband and Chl who is sitting next to me.
I get home that night (M&M’s husband picks us up, gotta love Raider for that), and my husband has to get me ready for bed, because I am a gummy bear. I start laughing I have no idea why, and cannot stop. He is laughing at me. I ask Hot Carl all serious like, “Why are you laughing at me?” He just says, “You are cute and giggling and it makes me laugh.” This starts the giggling all over. I ended up falling asleep (passing out) giggling.
Fast-forward 3 months and it’s my birthday. Hot Carl, me, my brother Sea Bass and his wife T-bag (I know, I didn’t choose her name) go out to celebrate. We go to Sea Bass’ watering hole. A nice friendly little bar where everyone knows him. I order an UV Bomber. This is Cherry UV Vodka and Lemonade (which taste like Kool-aid), and Sea Bass warns me they go down smooth and are dangerous. I tell Big Brother I am a grown woman and can handle my liquor. Hot Carl, Sea Bass and T-bag all order beer.
Two UV Bombers later I walk to the restroom, and according to Sea Bass and HC I fling the door open and just look in for about 30 seconds before walking in and looking in the mirror. I then remember the open door and shut it. They tell me this when I come back and sit down. I didn’t believe them until T-bag backed them up. I think this explains why the 5 guys at the table next to us are staring at me.
Two more UV Bombers later, the waitress tells us that the bartender has been pouring doubles all night because Sea Bass told him it was my birthday and only charging us singles. I have now had 8 drinks again.
We go home and poor Hot Carl gets gummy bear ready for bed again. I am now laughing like an idiot and he asks, “What is so funny?” I reply, “Just thought of this awesome joke.” All I remember is falling asleep (passing out). HC tells me in the morning that I was just babbling incomprehensibly about drinking and jokes.
So I have no idea what the joke was, but apparently liquor made it funny.
We have a wine trip coming up in a couple months, so let’s see what happens.
