Note To Self

July 20, 2007 at 7:19 am | In fun & frolicking, life lessons | 22 Comments

Every time I hang out with the Mad Irishman I spend too much money and get too drunk. I might still be drunk right now. At least tipsy.

Can I go back to bed?

No. I have to go shmooze with business types at a Chamber mixer.

And I forgot to wear underwear. At least I brushed my teeth.

Awesome.

UPDATE: While I wouldn’t say I was at my stellar best at the mixer, I managed to a) not fall asleep, b) form at least 10 coherent sentences, c) smile through the hangover haze completely fooling all of them into thinking I did not suffer at the hands of debauchery last night.

“I wanna live/with a cinnamon girl/I could be happy/the rest of my life/With a cinnamon girl” -Cinnamon Girl, Neil Young

Hehe! Sounds like a good time was had!! Same thing happens to me when I hang out with a certain friend. Huh, funny! I’m hanging out with them today and playing hooky from work. Tee hee!

For some reason… the nickname “Mad Irishman” and getting drunk seem to… I dont know… mesh?

I don’t think I have ever forgotten to wear underwear, does this happen often to you?

HA! Nothing wrong with forgetting to wear underwear!

“I forgot to wear underwear”

a sentence just not used enough these days !!

Well “Mad Irishman” should be your first clue! And I can say that since I am half!

And I forgot to wear underwear

LOL – yeah, right… you “forgot”

Blech, I hated having to function at work hungover. I didn’t do it often, but it sucked when I did.

I’d say that anyone would do stellar at mixers when they’re not wearing underwear. It’s my own personal way to do business.

So, you’re good with me. But it might have been the awesome glasses you wear. Hard to tell.

I love Cinnamon Girl- Type O Negative has a good version of it, too. My 3 year old daughter went “commando” to her doctor appointment the other day and her pediatrician had a good laugh while I was embarrassed and making up excuses for not checking. ;)

I agree with most of the comments here. I’d be THRILLED if Mrs. Lefty wasn’t wearing underwear–whether she forgot or otherwise.

sounds like quite a night, and that you handled yourself very well… cheers!

Woah. I haven’t heard that song (in particular, Neil Young’s version) in years, but I just added it to my mp3 player YESTERDAY. And here you are quoting it. Weird.

Let me see, pretty girl with big brown eyes … could it be someone recently referred to *you* as a Cinnamon Girl? Hmmmm?

Hahahaha forgetting to wear underwear is a true sign of tipsyness!

It seems as though you managed to socialize quite well, no underwear and all!

Mad Irishmen are good for that.

I’m sooooooooo impressed it’s not even funny.

If you forgot your underwear, you were CERTAINLY still drunk.

Heh! You said debauchery. :-D I like that!!

WTH, you know? Gotta let yourself be ugly and all hang out once in a damm while. Have some fun, and let chips fall where they may.

*smooches *

I did the same thing this weekend. I woke up the next morning with the assurance that I’d be taking a nap in a few hours. The beer-induced smooches were well worth it though!

you forgot underwear?

Friday morning I helped my very hungover coworkers (they partied at TAO all night) pack up our stuff from the trade show. One of them suddenly burst out with, “I was so drunk last night, I woke up in my clothes.” Being that a.) usually that line goes “I woke up naked” and b.) we were in Vegas, I laughed hysterically and told her she had to be the saddest drunk ever.

I bet she didn’t forget her underwear either.

[...] at 7am to be fully functional. Oh, I can wake up but I’m never quite right. Like that time I forgot to wear underwear to work and I had a networking meeting – which I attended (underwearless) (I’m sorry Mom) and possibly still a little inebriated. I [...]
