Oh happy happy drugs

Last week I was sick. And while sick I went on a date. that was my first brilliant step. I had taken some drugs aka medication (for any confused persons reading), that would make me sleepy. On the date I warned the other couples of my mental state. Which at that time could be labled unstable. I asked them to ignore any odd thing I had said throughout the night. The first part of the date went by without any major hitches. We stood outside for an hour- for a VT memorial, and then decided to get food. I was tired, obviously, so I got a Dr. Pepper (suprised I think not). About ten minutes later we all were shooting off movie quotes. From Tommy Boy to somehow penguins. My mind was doing brilliantly. I was keeping up and throwing more out. At the mention of penguins I got REALLY excited because this movie, Surfs Up- about surfing penguins was coming out. Well one of the girls looks over at me and asks, "have you seen Surf Ninjas?" I got REALLY excited. Like five times more excited than before and blurted out, "YES!!!!!!!!!!!" The whole restaurant jumped and turned and looked at me. We were laughing hysterically. I could not have gotten myself out of that hole. Instead I decided to dig a deeper one. After laughing I turned to the old ladies sitting at the next table, they had jumped the highest, and I just laughingly, but seriously, told them "dont mind me, I'm just on drugs" It took me a second to realize that I just announced to the entire restaurant- because I do not talk softly those times- that I was on drugs.....

To add to the irony of the night, that date was on 4/20..... yes it is a sad truth.
