bets on tomorrow?
no, silly. not bets on the horses. well, i suppose we could take bets on who will see a horse. (i always make a very concerted effort to make sure i see, and take a picture of, a horse. i feel like it makes the whole thing more legitimate.)
the bet i'm talking about--will laura cry? odds are on yes. after all, i'm 2/2 on the crying at foxfields, and the reality is just that i get very emotionally volatile when i drink (it's a very attractive characteristic. trust me.) and i am very prone to crying. it's just the way it is. (if you see my crying, just be nice to me. the other thing about me being drunk is that i have a very short memory and if you distract me, chances are good that it'll only be a few minutes before i've forgotten that i was upset and i'll be happy laura again. oh, and ask me if i even remember why i am crying. that will make me laugh. the other night i was crying, but i couldn't remember why, and i didn't want to admit it. that's kinda funny.)
a more interesting bet is--why will laura cry? sometimes it's something you can see coming. sometimes, you're blindsided by it.
and another--will i hit people? this could really go either way. and if i do, is it the fun hitting or the angry hitting. this could also go either way.
to conclude--a poll: which is the better drunk--the mean drunk, or the overly emotionally sensitive drunk? i was a very mean drunk when i was in college. well, kinda mean in a good-spirited way. i wasn't actually mean, but i said mean things. mostly to see what i could get away with, not really b/c i thought the things i said. the boys actually seemed to love it. i kinda miss it, but i suppose it's just as well that i am no longer a mean drunk. unfortunately, it has been replaced with overly emotionally sensitive drunk and i'm not sure that's fun for anyone. particularly not whoever gets left to deal with me. (oh, but lest it sound really bad, those aren't always the drunks you get. it's a total crapshoot. i also do a lot of happy drunk. some loud drunk. a smidge of pensive drunk. the aforementioned are kind of the emotional lowlights of my drunks.)
anyways, let's see what we get tomorrow!!
[ok, having re-read, i sound like a terrible drunk. but i'm really not. i swear! i can be lots of fun. when i'm not hitting you and crying. =) you've just got to work around that.]
