<p>What I learned this weekend:</p><ul><li>Turkey can be chewed with your front teeth.</li><li>Steak cannot.</li><li>Drinking five Cosmos in quick succession after eating two small pieces of turkey (see above) and some smashed potatoes is not the smartest thing to do.</li><li>Having your boss get drunker than you at the Holiday Party is a good thing.</li><li>Because if that happens you can get some pretty good ammo for the following year ;o)</li><li>Having your <span title="Boyfriend" class="serendipity_glossaryMarkup">BF</span> get as drunk as your boss is a good thing (but only if the two of them are good friends to begin with).</li><li>Letting your BF give your boss a wooden snowman table decoration to ‘play with’ during this drunkfest probably isn’t the smartest thing. (don’t. ask.)</li><li>A high beer-to-man ratio (BTM Ratio) is good if you want to dance ;o)</li><li>Leaving your heated mattress pad and your electric blanket on while you are in a drunken stupor can lead to *ahem* bad things.</li><li>Mind over matter is real. If you lay in bed, grit your teeth, breathe through your nose slowly and think happy non-food related thoughts you can be brought back from the brink of pukage. My thought? "I will NOT ruin Cosmos for myself by puking. Will. Not." (I haven’t been able to drink Corona since 1999)</li><li>Asking R for a Cosmo and to ‘supersize me’ the very next night at his office Holiday Party isn’t so very smart.</li><li>Beef Tenderloin CAN be chewed with your front teeth ;o)</li><li>Sunlight CAN harm you. Especially after five cosmos on an empty stomach, forgetting to take an advil before bed as well as forgetting to drink any water at all.</li><li>Roger is wonderful. He brought me the advil I forgot as well as two glasses of water before he left for work (yeah, he had to go to work after all the merry-making of the night before. He is He-Man).</li><li>I’m not as young as I used to be.</li></ul>
