Yikes, it's after noon. Before I pour my first Manhattan I need to
get this out of the way, for reasons that will not be apparent.
Several - way several - years ago, after a fun evening of drinking my ass off with the boys, I evidently uttered some inanity in the course of some attempted "pillow talk." My bride (who does not drink) responded, "That's just the booze talking." No, I swore, hurt by the accusation. When a man is a little tipsy, I told her, all his inhibitions go away and that's when you get the real truth. Now, over the years I've told her several other things. Like, when that red light goes on, it means you're low on oil. Or, if you put iron skillets into the sink to soak, you ruin them. That, she can't remember, but the other thing? Oh Jaysus, have I paid for that. So let me tell you girls something that you can put into the bank. Drunk men say whatever the fuck comes into their minds, whether it makes sense ot not. Solder it. And forgive them. |
Right on brother. I basically skipped the booze part and say whatever the hell I want, when I want, to whom I want. It's a lot easier.

i.e I love youl, I don't love you, I'm leaving, I didn't sleep with that girl.
My ex-girlfriend is convinced we broke up because I moved away from California. She forgets I broke up with her two months before leaving, when I still had my job and an apartment.
