SPC post-mortem

I did have a lot of fun. Mostly because of the actions of the drunken santas. Two of my co-workers especially had me laughing. One of them (JJ) was also celebrating her birthday. Not a good thing to do on a pub crawl. Everyone was buying her drinks not to mention the free drinks the santas received at various bars. Before we got to pub number four (Wolski's), JJ could hardly walk. Looked like she was walking through a land mine field because of the way she was carefully placing one foot in front of another. After arriving at Wolski's, I heard that JJ lost her cookies in the back of the bus. Poor thing. Soon after that, JJ and her husband caught a cab and headed home.

One incident that makes me chuckle every time I think about it is when JJ went to take a picture of herself and another co-worker, Tim. She walked up and put her arm around Tim to pose for the picture. The only problem was that she had a full beer in the hand of the arm that went around Tim's neck. JJ was already drunk by this time and didn't pay attention to the beer. Specifically the direction the mouth of the beer was pointing. She ended up dumping almost an entire beer down Tim's sholder before I could snatch it out of her hand. Tim (who was also drunk) didn't even notice. When I pointed out that his santa suit was now officially christened, he just shrugged his sholders. Didn't seem to care about the beer dripping down his front and pooled at his feet. LOL!

We lost a few other santas throughout the night. Happens every year. Many newbies don't realize that you have to pace yourself and to remember that riding a school bus can be hard on a stomach that is full of alcohol. Especially the BACK of the bus.

I'm still recapping events from that night because many santas have memory gaps. Those same santas have said they will never drink again after suffering from a nasty hangover on Sunday. I'm sure that will change by the time next year rolls around. :)
