My thumb really hurts!

So i took a stupid pill last night and thought it would be a good idea to go to the Lion's Lair with some rollergirls - seeing as how well drinks were $1! Bad Bad Bad idea. i have been off the wagon (or is it on the wagon - Seinfeld confused me http://www.tvtome.com/tvtome/servlet/GuidePageServlet/showid-112/epid-2269/) for a while, and after last night i realize i can't swim with the big fishes anymore. i got completely trashed after 4 drinks.

4 DRINKS, PEOPLE!!!!!

Apparently i did a dance to ABBA (on a small wooden box they called a "stage") and got a free shot, which somehow resembled an entire cocktail.

Wi-Hoo!

Needless to say, i was getting dropped off by Jayne Manslaughter when lo and behold! I slammed my thumb in her 1988 Volvo door! I didn't even realize it until i tried to walk away, and i couldn't. i re-opened the door, said ouch, and walked into my building with a bleeding thumb.

Ahh...
You can't have a good night of drinking without a little blood present, ya know?

28 people. i'm going to be 28 this year.
Fantastic.

Isn't your birthday over half a year away? I say wait until a month before to start worrying!

This should be a valuable lesson to everybody. ANYBODY who gets drunk and dances to ABBA, then rides in a volvo will have a bloody thumb.

I'm going to take this opportunity to start a petition. Cas, you'll have to sign it when your thumb stops bleeding. The petition states that ABBA and Volvo's should be banned because they lead to uncontrollable bleeding from the thumb. This is so completely obvious to me, it's a wonder something hasn't been enacted in the past. We must protect the children!

I find it odd that both ABBA and Volvos are Swedish. I think there is a Swedish conspiracy to eliminate the Cas. Beware, Ms. D, the Swedes are quite diabolical, maybe even as diabolical as such seemingly harmless things as donuts and Zingers.

Um, about that comment. Although that was officially my first roller challenge, i find that it was proposed in anger. i feel some healing has to begin. if you need some spiritual guidance, feel free to email me. Counseling sessions are free.
Sorry folks.
p.s.
Save it for the bout, baby.

OK, I am posting a comment and not on your work email. Yes you were right, forget Seinfield. You fell off the wagon. This quaint saying comes from England when the palace was located on the Thames (watch Ann of a Thousand Days). When you were going to be executed you were allowed a final drink. Once you were placed "on the wagon" you could no longer have a drink. Falling off wagons is usually considered dangerous, but in the historical perspective it is the better alternative.
