What I Learned From Blacking Out At Our Annual Holiday Party

  • RULE #1: When, at 12:30 am, after a night of drinking beer, then wine, then gin & tonics, it is NOT a good idea to switch to rum & cokes. 12:30 should be your turn around time.

  • Should you fail to adhere to this RULE #1, be prepared to clean up rum & coke colored vomit in the morning.

  • Should you delegate cleaning up said vomit to your wife, be prepared to offer her jewelry to compensate her.

  • Waking up and not remembering how you got there is as fun as it sounds.

  • Don't have a bagel and orange juice after you just threw up. Not a good idea.

  • Leave the chip bowl on the coffee table overnight, so that it will be right near the sofa the next morning, just in case. Be prepared to buy Nilda a new chip bowl.

  • Its better to throw up ginger ale or Sprite than to throw up nothing at all.

  • It might make sense to think that you've got a virus, but its more likely that you're just really hungover, or have alcohol poisoning.
  • Lord of the Rings is an amazing trilogy.

  • Have the saltines & chicken soup. Nilda is right.

  • Yes, you are actually dying.

  • Julie is my sister and I love her.

  • I am advised that I still can't take down cousin Bill.

Hm! If Nilda's getting jewelry you probably owe me something better than a magazine subscription in retroactive compensation for the last time your puke was scrubbed up.....Your SIL

Awwww, B Dub. We're really gonna have to work on your tolerance, aren't we?

Also, don't you know not to antagonize a Shakespeare scholar, lest he go medieval on yo' azz?
