Friday night John and Chris came over to play cards, and i can't remember when i've had more fun or been more intoxicated.Stephen thought it would be great to make have a Tex-Mex Fiesta (last time we all played cards, it was homemade pizza and red wine). we got home and he whipped up Nachos, Chicken and Cheese Quesadillas and the most amazing Guacamole i've ever had. the food was absolutely beyond wonderful (girls, you have got to run out and get yourself a man like mine). then came the sangria. it was like a drag queen in a pitcher: fruity, sweet, tart and strong enough to knock you on your ass. two glasses and we were all off our faces. it was so good, John started doing his Ellen Greene(Audrey from Little Shop of Horrors) impression, and i lost it. i really thought i was going to start shooting guacamole out of my nose. it was so beautiful outside that we stayed on the patio, laughing and singing and attempting to play cards till after two. i vaguely remember the party breaking up and going to bed.
when i woke up on saturday, i thought i was in Tijuana. my mouth was dry and it was so bright outside that i almost fell out of bed just to crawl underneath. it wasn't nearly as bad as the last time i got...tipsy...but it was pretty bad. i couldn't talk, thinking was not an option, and there was no way in hell i was taking of my sunglasses. 6 hours, a vanilla latte and 3 tylenol later and i was back to normal. i'd say i'm never drinking again, but we all know that's a bold face lie.
i can't wait till next time we play cards. i'm thinking homemade Dim Sum and Mai Tais.
