I opened my dorm room door to a frantic guy who said, "There's a naked body on 4th floor and I'm not even kidding."
I opened my dorm room door to a frantic guy who said, "There's a naked body on 4th floor and I'm not even kidding."
The cop and I had a delightful conversation about sweaters and the weather and to this day he does not know that I was drunk and not even 17 yet.
If there was ever a good time to stop drinking, it was this morning when I woke up next to a woman in a giraffe costume.
I don't know if it was the alcohol, the darkness or the rush to put my clothing back on that made me fall onto the cactus.
Yesterday I had to explain to my roommates, who don't drink, why Jeff's car was in the backyard.
Thirty seconds before vomiting, the room spinning, vision cloudy, I recited the alphabet backwards and thought, "Well, I'm not drunk yet."
Puking up that champagne was really my head ridding my life of 2007.
I hate to play cards when I'm drunk, because I always lose.
The next week, I "forgot" to shower and ate enough to make me ill, hoping he would stop finding me attractive.
My teetotaling harks back to the ripe age of 13 when, in a fit of uncontrollable giggling, I was ordered to a guest bedroom so they could continue the Passover seder.
As I fell through the ice on Lake Michigan staring at the morning sun, I realized my night of revelry had made me feel invincible (and I wasn't).
After three nights of passing out drunk and bleeding, I decided it might be time to talk to someone.
It's not the hangovers I fear the most, but the fact that I've lost a few hours of my life that I can never get back.
Two blocks of silence to the store we bought another EPT and a bottle of Rumplemintz, the big bottle.
I didn't feel as humiliated when he told me that at least six other people puked their guts out at the last house party, but I still made sure to stay sober this time.
We went out to drink, he got drunk and got caught by a teacher.
I looked up from the floor, towards the bartender, and then, for no apparent reason - I drank fourteen vodka martinis.
