Hunter got here last Monday and to celebrate that (or maybe that was just their excuse so they could drink, but hey, whatever, I still can’t think straight, that’s not a first, shut up voice in my head!) the dev team went to Grappa’s in Greenbelt.
They did not order any other drink aside from beer and while waiting for that, Luis asked me if I already know what I can drink. Of course I did not say I know I’ll be safe with Iced Tea so in all my lameness I just sat there, smiled and said, “I still don’t know.” And when asked if I really don’t drink, I stupidly sat there, smiled and said, “I don’t drink … much.”
Then they went on to reminiscing how I got drunk after a few sip of the Long Island at the after-party of the Morph Event last, last Saturday. But you know, it wasn’t just a few sip! It was a lot of sip, probably ten (?), hey that’s a lot and it’s more than 3! And for your information everyone, I was able to drink almost 1/4 of the glass of that Long Island! Almost 1/4! OK, that’s lame, but that’s almost 1/4! And I got an allergy for more than a week. Whatever.
So last night, because apparently, my officemates are closely watching how much I’ve already drank, I was able to finish a glass of beer. A. Glass. Of. Beer. And hey, that’s an accomplishment! I can now say that I’m an adult. I was really slightly happy with that until my boss said that Mochas are kiddie coffee … Whenever I drink one, I couldn’t sleep til 6 in the morning. Way to go boss.
Anyway, I was flushed after that and I woke up very early the next day which is hellish and a had horrible feeling due to this darn allergy… Nice way to start a busy day, I must say.
