So, update: My bff was basically drugged last night... not really, but she definitely thought she was drinking water when this guy was really giving her tequila. She had no idea what was going on, so I guess I forgive her, though it's still a really fucked up situation, cause now I'm worried about what might have happened to her if she had kept drinking it... She feels really violated now, though, and she never wants to go back to that bar again. We were supposed to go out Friday again, but both of us are a little weary of it now... She's wicked sick today, which serves her right in a sense for taking drinks from others (I guess I should have been watching, since I was obviously more lucid than her last night, but I was on the phone with my mom for 15 minutes having a water break and trying to calm her nerves). I'm not. In fact, as soon as I had something to eat and some spearmint tea, I felt great! I think my boyfriend, like, absorbed my hangover, lol. He was sick on the couch with a headache and nausea from 3am on (about the time I went to bed to attempt to sleep), and he lives three states away! Anywho, I'm going over to bff's house to get my stuff that I was supposed to have to spend the night there last night. And my pizza. They better not have eaten my pizza... God, I want some pizza...
Sorry your birthday went to hell. You have the same birthday as my anniversary! I remember when I turned 21. I went and bought beer at a liquor store and didn't get carded. In a college town, no less. Where I was going to college. I remember I was pissed thinking, "I could have tried this before." NOW I get carded in bars. Why, I don't know. I can pass for 30 I suppose, but I wouldn't think 21. I also learned that if you go into bars yelling, "It's my 21st birthday!" you get lots of free drinks. I'm sure that would not work for me anymore.
Hahaha, yeah live it up while you can! Because us paranoid drunks will be heading for the hills as soon as you hit that big 4-0.
And shellebelle, I didn't get carded all night except for once when my friend told the bartender it was my 21st. She got all suspicious and went "let me see," and I finally had a chance to proudly flaunt my new ID.
It's funny though. My desire to hang out with pretty young girls is weaning. Weird. I never thought this would happen. And I'm HAPPY about it what's more. Go figure.
