Now what?

3 drinks
empty stomach - well ok - some fries in between
a wicked buzz
a lot of cussing and swearing
lots of laughing with good ol' friends in on a celebration
help me walk me up the stairs later in the evening
up to my apartment-for-a-couple-'more-weeks-now
it's the middle of the night - nay early in the morning
And I suddenly find myself awake, wide awake
Buzz gone away
And hungry as hell

three drinks, 2 beers and a long island ice tea. Watching you slur up your words and curse like crazy was precious. My only regret not having a video camera.

Meeta,

Ha. Ha. Actually, a minor correction. It's actually one beer, one kahlua (on the rocks) and one long island ice tea.

I actually owe a few more people binge'ing parties, so I think I am going to have to drink a 'little' bit more in December/early January. And then close down the shop. I am partly dreading how bad it's going to be before then actually! Heh! Heh!

I also enjoy using the word "actually" - so there you go.

Hell Brij, that's the normal Sarat I know. :) Thanks for the phone call.

Aravinda: Thanks for the wishes. You and wife must join us the next time we're at Mitch's Tavern on Hillsborough St. It's been a fav. haunt of mine and several hundred others since I've been at NCState.
(By the way, it's the same place where the bar brawl scene from "Bull Durham" with Costner, Robbins and Sarandon - classic baseball movie - was shot.)

Brij,
Sarat curses like crazy all the time, but this was five steps ahead of normal. I think he was close to getting us thrown out of the bar. That would have been great, would have given me a chance to tick one thing off on my list of things just like DC.
