Wino Wednesday: Swallowing Leads to Trouble
By Susan Mercedes. Filed in Friends, Wino Wednesday |
This Wino Wednesday post was inspired by a wine tasting event. It happened some time ago. But it happened nonetheless. And there was lots of wine. Lots can be defined by a zillion ounces.
I attended one of those wine tasting events with a group of friends. We were all coupled up. Meaning, we all came with were with our significant others.
Back to the tasting. I always choose to swallow. It makes the most sense. Who wants to waste all that liquid goodness? And if you’re thinking that I’m referring to anything but the spit or swallow method in wine tasting, you’re wrong. Sick and wrong.
Swallowing that much wine leads to drunk. We were a big group of swallowers. And we became a big group of drunks.
Which naturally leads to continuing the party at one of the couple’s house. It was a great house. With plenty more wine. And a hot tub.
If you put together a bunch of swallowing drunks in a house with a hot tub, what do you get? A bunch of naked people in the hot tub. I’m sure you saw that coming. This was not a planned event for the evening, therefore none of us had swimsuits. Seriously, who brings a fucking swimsuit to a wine tasting event? Back to our brilliant plan. We all strip down. Yep, get naked. And jump in.
So we squished around in the hot tub for a bit. We continued drinking. Finally we decided we had enough wet fun. Luckily there were plenty of towels.
We got out. We dried off. We sat on the couches wrapped in towels by the fire. And what did I do?
I fucking fall asleep. Remember, falling asleep is something I do. I fell asleep sitting up on the couch wrapped in my towel.
Time passes. And I wake up.
Everyone is still in the room. It looks normal as I scope out the crowd. Until I realize that I’m the only one completely butt ass naked.
Suddenly the hot tub idea seems like a dumb one.
Please tell me that this has happened to you!

That is awesome!! Seriously one of the top 5 drunken sotries ever! Never happened to me but remember I get injured not naked.

Suz: Oh my god, the time you jumped (I thought) or fell (you said) off the platform into a crowd of people was hysterical. But what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, or on my blog. Deal? Didn’t your ankle swell up once you got some nonalcoholic liquid in you? Clearly that was after we left Vegas.

If I had a hero, you would be mine. FANTASTIC!!! Was the towel still around you or were you really just sleeping naked?

Becky: Towel was probably just around my waist. And trust me, this was not a good thing. It was long before my new and improved boobs.

I fell asleep in a towel last week…albeit in my own bed…and no one was home but me and the dogs…but I was naked…and in a towel.
That doesn’t help, does it?

Jessica: Doesn’t help. Thanks for trying. Maybe you could throw a dinner party, drink to much, get naked, pass out on the couch before your guests leave. THAT would make me feel a little less alone.
