drinking, carousing and carrying on

So I am slightly inebriated. Yes, I have partaken of the wine. And the vodka. Large quantities of the vodka… and sushi. Ahhhh… sushi. What a wonderful, fabulous, nummy (Shut up, it’s my word. Deal.) meal.

Day 1 went pretty well. There were a few glitches, but alas, not too bad.

We went to dinner (at 8PM, following cocktail hour where I got a job offer… πŸ™‚ ) with a friend of the coworker. Sushi and vodka… yes, there was overwhelming joy. Much celebration. Dancing in the streets.

Then there was pool playing and we were soundly beat. Annihilated even. Sad, sad, sad.

Now we are back at the hotel, checking the presentations for tomorrow. Which, in all actuality, is probably not so good, as I am looking at this computer screen with one eye shut… and the coworker is mumbling behind me, incoherently, about a presentation.

But you must be impressed that I can still spell. While wasted.

I should get paid for that.

  1. I love Sushi….I hate Vodka, blah…

    I like Jim Beam better than Vodka. Vodka is for Russian pussies, Jim Beam is for “real men/women.”

    Want my opinion on liquor? Good! If you can’t feel it burn your intestines than its not worth drinkin.

    Durgh duh!

  2. Jim Beam also makes a great solution for inducing projectile vomit.
