Lightweight…
Today after work, I went on a powerwalk of sorts with a friend from work. She’s tall, so her vigorous walk is practically a jog for me and we did a solid 45 minutes or so… and then decided we needed food in a bad way.
We went to a Cajun restaurant near the office and I learned that Thursday night is half-price martini night. Well, not being one to pass up a $5 martini bargain, and feeling the need to have a drink, and knowing that I had at least two hours until I needed to drive, I figured one wouldn’t hurt me. So I ordered the pear martini - Grey Goose pear, Midori and pineapple juice. I get that the sweetness can be deceiving, but this thing was strong. Even with a shrimp po’ boy sandwich and coleslaw and a glass of water in my tummy, I was having issues setting my water glass back on the ring of condensation on the table.
I’m concerned that I’ve become a ridiculous lightweight - or that it was laced with something else since I’m still sort of feeling it now (I don’t honestly think that’s the case, but wow do I feel weird).
The entire train ride home, I was sort of in a haze. That’s not normal. I drove home without incident (that was 2 hours after imbibing the SINGLE martini) but still feel a little out of it.
I’ve been sitting here for an hour trying to figure out how to install this fun Flickr widget and I can’t seem to make the words come together in my head so that I can successfully configure and install the mofo.
I’m not even tipsy, but something is wonky. Maybe I’m just overly tired and stressed? Maybe the fact that tomorrow is Friday is making me a bit giddy and punchdrunk?
The best thing to do right now is crawl into bed and enjoy some delicious sleep.
