Friendly Fill Ins

2:45p.m. I don't think I can hang my head any lower than it is at the moment. I'm on the phone with Chuck and he's filling in everything I have no memory of from last night. It is amazing how the mind will work to protect you. Selectively altering perception and completely leaving out sections to allow you to continue functioning.

What did I miss? I fell a couple times. I knocked drinks over and a speaker. I went running in the rain. I fell into a bush. I "disappeared" for a while--as Chuck put it. I was trying to come on to some kid who wasn't having it. Aye! I smoked a cigarrette...then left the bud hanging in my mouth for a while. Eeeww. I ran down the driveway dragging Eddie with me (then fell in the aforementioned bush). As they got in the car, I jumped on the hood and had my face on the windshield. I laugh now....but I probably would be one of the first to mention how messy "this person" was had I been witnessing it. If I were a social butterfly, I think this would be the beginnings of my pariah period. But, since I'm not... I figure it's just another night swept clean under the rug. Down the gutter with the rain.
