A friend of mine invited a few people over for yappy hour last night. I was only going to stay “for a couple.” I looked at the clock and it was like 7:30 and I still had Chex mix to make last night.
Next thing I know it’s 10:30! I had no idea it had gotten so late, that I had so many glasses of wine and too little to eat.
I drove home. What an asshole move. My friend only lives a few miles away, but I probably could have been pulled over, or worse, gotten into an accident.
Tony was obviously pissed with good reason. Not that I stayed out, but that I didn’t call him to come pick me up. If I was pulled over for DUI it would have been thousands of dollars and a license suspension – all for happy hour?
Tony, I apologize for my behavior. It was dumb and irresponsible.
Me thinks I should quit drinking.
I’m sure this was a difficult post to write. I too commend you for your honesty. We are human and we make mistakes. Glad you were ok.
I think we have all been in your situation. Not that it is right, but we learn from our mistakes. You are forgiven:)
It’s awful when we do something that disappoints our husbands. It’s the worst feeling!
(You should probably delete this post – I’m sure your boss would advise you that..)
As everyone said, the important thing is that you learned from it. And by writing about it and putting it out there, you also reminded all of us to plan ahead! It’s an important reminder, especially this time of the year.
We’ve all been there. Just listen to Tony and don’t do it again, we love you! 🙂
I drove home from a party once 13 years ago. Same situation, drank too much, ate too little, and it was just a few miles. Nothing happened (thank God!), but it still scared the sh*t out of me and I never did it again. Glad you’re OK!!!
