The first time I got drunk was on Grain Alcohol. It was stupid

My brother got busted with a bottle of it two weeks before Prom, and my Mom confiscated it, wrote paint thinner on the bottle and put it in the storage room.

Being a curious kid, I smuggled the bottle to my best friend's house and we mixed it with fruit punch. He got drunk, but I didn't. I must not have had enough.

Two days later, I was determined to get drunk but all we had was instant mix iced tea.

So, he made me an iced tea with some grain in it, and I could barely taste it, but I also wasn't getting buzzed. So, he kept increasing the ratio of tea to alcohol.

I swear to God that I screw up my nose to this day if I smell that tea

I ended up dry-heaving out the rear door onto the patio. It was awful! I still don't have much of an affinity for the hard stuff.

Hey Tara! Make sure you tell you're Dad that I picked out his gift, I need lots of cool points!

 

[U2democrat]

is german beer good? because i'll be drinking it this summer when i go.

Oh my gosh! he hit your car? What an arse. My stepmom ran over my bike when I was a kid because she didnt feel like moving it before she pulled out of the garage
she made me jump out of a moving car once too because she didnt feel like stopping for me to get out......
parents are weird

I had it parked in my grandma's drive and his car (a red one) was there. He left before I did. Well when I got home I noticed a HUGE dent in my bumper with red paint....since I didn't kill anyone on the way home it hadda to have been him. Which sucks cause I know he wont pay to fix it and it's paid....ripped the paint off in some places.



If I didn't live on the first floor of the apartement builiding I'd throw myself out the window.

Dads

Your post just made me think of Zach Braff's dad on Garden State...I just finished watching it, it's a great movie!


Me--I miss my dad, he died when I was 10. So everyone, please enjoy your fathers while they're still around acting silly or misbehaving. It's hard to tell them how you feel after they're gone.


Thinking about dads also makes me think about that scene in Grease when Frenchie tells Sandy..."The only man a girl can count on is her daddy." So true.

 

[U2democrat]

angel

i just tried a sip of some bad german wine.

it burns!!!

Well if that's true then I'm really in trouble.

you've always got bono to count on

 

[starsgoblue]

I just went to the liquor store to get an 8 pack of Guinness and the guy working there goes, "You're not drinking this!". When I told him that I indeed was, he laughed and says, "Now that's a manly beer, 'atta girl"

 

[U2democrat]

i think he was hitting on you............was he hot?

Not to sound corny or like a loser, but seriously if it weren't for him I might be one of those mean male hating women. He gives me hope. I've never had a "good" man in my life...and I see Bono and think, "Well there just might be one out there like that for me."

 

[starsgoblue]

Really? You think?

He did tell me to think of him when I was having a Guinness tonight...
