I guess I didn’t really state it explicitly, but yes, I did enjoy the party. The dynamics were wholly different in that the event wasn’t really about couples at all like a ball or a school dance would be about.
Anyway, I think I over-indulged that night. During the dinner, the servers kept pouring the wine. Afterwards, I used up my 3 drink tickets. As well, some people leaving the party early gave me their remaining tickets. In the end…I was pretty out of it, although, not at puke levels like that time this past March. I took a cab home (it was on the company’s account) which cost about $58.
Up till today, it seemed like the celebrating hadn’t ended yet. At about half past 4, everyone gathered upstairs where we had wine and cheese. I kept on saying to everyone: “this is just awesome, man.” Seriously, not many places are like this, right? I had two glasses of red wine, and unfortunately, I kind of got blindsided by them. I think my stomach would have been able to handle it better if I had more starchy stuff in my stomach (I didn’t). I wasn’t drunk…but my typing suffered. Luckily I didn’t update any work tickets afterwards, you know? That could have been embarassing. I ended up walking for 45 minutes just to burn off the buzz.
All is well now. I will readily admit that now things are starting to feel a bit more like Christmas.
