Hungover Friday morning, recounting last night at the bar. The waiter was completely on it — soon as I put my glass down, he'd refill it like there's no tomorrow. Two glasses in: 'This guy gets it!' Three glasses in: 'This might be a problem.' The little angel on my shoulder whispered stop. The devil won. I overshared. Like, my whole life story. Now I'm just dying of cringe. Promise I won't hit the bar anymore — ok, at least this month. Please pass the water. Thank you.
