Seconded , we were over at our cousins' two nights ago (whom we know quite well) but then they had their other cousins over, whom I met once at a wedding 8 years ago. I asked during the dinner where so-and-so, one of those cousins' we don't know very well, was and I was informed he's in rehab . That wasn't awkward at all ...

I just have nothing in common with my relations, except that we had the same grand mother thats about it. I spent most if not all the time either watching tv with the missus' or chatting with my brothers who were also equally bored.

I like how a good chunk of this thread has turned into the "Aramant's Drunk OMG Whee!" thread. Anyway, to keep true to form...

Went to the step-mom's family dinner thing yesterday. I drank a bottle of wine unto myself. Then we started playing Scattergories. It's this word game. The details aren't important. What IS important is that I was shouting at people the whole time. Merry drunkmas!

After I got home, a friend who's given up drinking (at the age of 20! What the crap!) came over, and goaded me into drinking black Russians very quickly. To make a long story icky, I yakked. I haven't been sick from drinking for a loooooooong time, and then I break that streak on x-mas day. I'm awesome.

Cousins and stuff today. This'll probably be the one day I won't be drinking, even though it's the day I'll need it most. Funny how that works out.

Aramant: 21
Family: 0
Aramant's bathroom: -1

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*coughImmelodramaticcough*

Now the Holiday I REALLY despise, New Years, is coming up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah... I used to love Christmas. But I'm atheist, my parents are atheist, so we don't "celebrate" Christmas for its religiousness. But this year, I got a job, and I had to work on Christmas Eve. I didn't get to do anything we used to do for Christmas, so it didn't feel like Christmas. We get mobbed for Christmas, seeing as I work for Godiva, and it drove me nuts. So I hated it this year.

I did get to party the eve of Christmas Eve, though. Boy, howdy, did I get drunk. Co-workers are fun people, except you can't show your face around work the next day and expect to be treated with a modicum of respect. But at least I didn't throw up in front of them this time. 'course, I went home the afternoon of Christmas Eve, and my mom mentioned my dad had bought some Godiva white chocolate liquer. I decided to try some, liked it, poured myself half a glass. My mom started yelling at me, "Oh god, you can't drink that much, you'll be out all night! Your father and I don't even drink that much." To which I replied, "Lightweights." So now she thinks I'm a big drinker; kept calling me a boozer. I think for next year, I'll make sure I'm drunk the entire time.

But yeah, bah humbug, Christmas blows, etc.

New score update:

Aramant: Gin.
Aramant's Family: Oh no.
Everything Else: Broken.

@ Chimaera182, lightweights indeed. My mother tweaked on my brother for drinking 2 Labbat Blues within 4 hours and driving afterwords. 2 beers in 4 hours!

@ Aramant, still drunk?

Not still. It's been a case of drinking, sleeping, sobering up, drinking the next morning, continuing all day, getting myself into compromising and awkward "situations", sleeping, sobering up, drinking the next morning, etc.

Tonight I'm going to a 10 year elementary school reunion. Drinking. Girls. Me. Public.

Problems.

Heh, there would be a huge difference if I went to a reunion for my elementary school than my high school. I was king in my elementary school. Then I moved, and I was the guy everyone wanted to fight. *shakes my head* I'm thinking going to my high school reunion would be asking for the police in riot gear.

Awkward situations when drunk are hilarious! I love that stuff. Makes for wonderful stories for later drunken situations.

I just did the whole "christmas" deal with my cousins from NC and my father and his new wife. My brother was hungover, and I was drunk. It was fairly entertaining even though it took 9 hours.

[Chimaera182]

The people I hang out with (co-workers, all girls) seem really into drunk-dialing. They leave insane, drunken voicemails, and it's somewhat humorous to listen to. 'course, Thursday night (I think it was Thursday), I was with a co-worker and a co-worker's daughter, and we were going home, and the co-worker drunk-dialed another co-worker we get drunk with to leave her a voicemail. Unfortunately, that co-worker woke up and answered, so that was funny for me. "Oh, I'm sorry, you weren't supposed to wake up; it's a drunk-dial."

My brother took my phone on Christmas Eve two years ago and did that. He called everyone from his college in Ohio and invited them to the beach to make sand castles and play volleyball at 1:30 am, well I suppose that ceases to be Christmas eve and ends up Christmas day. Some people were NOT amused. I was. Freaking hilarious stuff hearing drunk, half-asleep college kids deal with that.
