well,it was an EVENTFUL party!!It all started out good.We went to a roof-top bar and restaurant on St. petersburg beach..via the party bus..which was like a limo--plush,Baby. we watched the sun-set,had frozen daquiris, margaritas and pina coladas.And TONS of sea-food appetizers and escargot.It was so nice .there was a "Jimmy Buffet " style band..and I even got them to play "Jingle Bells"...(it WAS our Christmas party from LAST year!) The other customers looked at us real funny when we were all wishing each other a "Merry Christmas"! Then we were all tipsy-got back in the bus to go to "The Green Iguana"..THATS when the %#$!^& HIT THE FAN!!!!All I know is that Joe-- a bartender who dates Tigger - a waitress --spilled the beans to Cyndi-a bartender--that her BOYFRIEND Brian-(whom she is NOW broken up with) and who is way younger than her and a bar-back ..well Tigger and Brian had sex when Cyndi and Brian were dating-BUT Brian told Tigger that they were broken up at the time of the "affair".THIS ALL CAME OUT WHILE WE WERE ON THE BUS!!Talk about some tempers flaring..hateful remarks and tears flowing. What a soap-opera..so anyway we get to the OTHER bar--FINALLY-it was a 20 mile trip from HELL!All I wanted to do was just GET OFF THAT BUS!So then some went off in seperate groups--depending on "whose side they were on"..I stayed at the bar and ordered MORE appetizers..along with a few other SANE people.Then the bartender (Joe) who spilled the beans to Cyndi got irate..started calling Tigger( who i felt the MOST sorry for) a slut and OTHER words I wont repeat..The bouncer threw him out..i go outside and Joe IS CRYING--now this guy is 6'8" tall..blubbering like a baby..begs me to go get Tigger for him "because he loves her and he is SOOOOO sorry" WHATEVER--These jokers ruined our nite--TOO much drama. Anyhow..it is now about 11:30..it is time to go back to OUR bar where we all met.So we get on the bus. Then Teresa -a bartender-gets REALLY sick starts puking on bus..but in the bath-room.BUT we cuold all hear it even thru the music and the sporadic comments coming from Cyndi( Brian-you are a 2 -timing bastard) and Joe(tigger --you are a slut..I am leaving you)--mean while Tigger and Brian do some shots and say to" hell with it all"!! so anyhow we get back to Obriens (our pub)..poor teresa (the puking one) can hardly get off the bus. We lie her down and i try to get her some sprite, a cold cloth..I was hovering over her..trying to make her feel better..then I go BACK inside and calla cab for myself..I was pretty buzzed at this point.I go back out side to see how teresa is doing and my boss Bernie is sitting with her.I said "teresa..I got a cab..take it with me" then Bernie says TO ME..Get the &^%^^%$ OUT OF HERE!!!!WHY?? I still dont know. So I ran offand started to cry in a corner..then My cab came--THANK GOD..and I went home..but I was still pissed at bernie..SO smart, drunken me calls Bernie up at the pub and asks him WHY he spoke to me like that?He said.."Mo. you never know when to quit"..SO i SAID" OH yes I do --I QUIT"!!!! and he hung up on me!!Of course,he knows I wont--nor will I be fired...AHHH the power of liquor. N0w it is 9 am..my eyes are swollen cuz I cried( PMS was setting in too)AND I just realized I left ALL MY KEYS at the bar..I had a hidden key to get in house last nite.UGHH, so I have to go there now to get them and see BERNIE..Naa, ill wait till later when he is gone. Oh and to top it all off--I SMOKED! But I dont want to even look at a cig now..just was a stupid thing to do. I am starting my healthy habits again. I NEVER want to drink again!!!LOL!!!OK NOW how was your nite--TOP THAT!!!! xoxoxoxo mel

** Lol, I don't think we can Mel. If that isn't a testamony for sobriety and smobriety, I don't know what is!! Those ol' demons rum and nico make quite a pair and play really rough! ;)

Yay for you for calling a cab but sorry you have to go in to get your keys.

Feel better soon hon and hope you can get to the gym for a good workout. :)

Glad you survived it all! :)

awww mel what a night!!! HUGS girl!! I hope everything with everyone gets smoothed over!!!!!!

this doesn't come near to topping that story...my only drama of the weekend was hanging out with a guy friend from college, who up until friday night, we always said how great it was hanging out b/c there was no "tension" between us..it was like brother and sister hanging out...well friday he tries to kiss me, I'm like..umm no...it's not like that...he's a good friend so I hope this doesn't make things weird for him to hangout. Ah well...the joys of growing up....LOL
