6 Fuzzy Navels and 1 Lemon Shot later
I left the bar after all of the DUers in Boston called it a night ~ and I thought I was the light weight :shrug:

BlondieK has turned off her light and is fast asleep.

Looks like it's almost lights out time for tonight but I'm still awake :cry:

3. Boston is the WORST place to make a wrong turn...

5. I never drink and drive no matter where I am.
I started taking cabs my second day in Boston and I'm not sorry. I've seen some beautiful neighborhoods that I would have missed on the T.

19. I didn't say that !
I'm still a light weight when it comes to drinking, I just sip a little for a long time.

So - I didn't drink anyone under the table. I just enjoyed a polite evening out with good friends.

6. I thought I was out of practice
I've gone for many years having only an occasional drink here and there - it's nice to know - that I haven't lost it yet!

Too bad they're lightweights.

Of course, if I were there, they'd all be lightweights.

20. we're all having lots of fun
sheesh ... I'm not drinking anyone under the table :shrug:

But the folks who couldn't be here will be missed. I'm really bad at remembering real names but I'm enjoying putting the user names I know together with the faces I don't know yet.

My friends have known me as Freebird for many years before I started posting on the internet ~ they also know me as Joani Alpern - for those of you at DU that I will be meeting for the first time this weekend.
