Drug Induced

Well, we were able to make rape funny.

I went with the whole falling in love with her thing. Sang a song too.

"When my ring hits your eye - and you fall down and cry - That's Amore!"

As for her, she gave herself, with make up, two black eyes and a bloody nose.
Ha Ha. I guess I beat her too. Wow.

She ended up with amnesia, and her husband, the pastor found her, but everyone he tried to get to help always confused her bloody nose with the fact that maybe he beat her. It was very Three's Company, and actually very funny.

For my part, a new guy came to town looking for his drug dealing son. He came to my restaurant, and after hearing that I bought drugs from his son, gave me a pill. Later, I was walking around thinking I was a chicken, and doing cartwheels in the back, as he found out from his son's wife that his son was, in fact, now dead. Then she told him that I did it. I didn't, but she is vindictive. Things don't look good for me now.

Found out after the show, that we had a reviewer (great, only two more shows left), but he loved the show. One person from our theatre said that he was laughing so hard, he never had time to write, and that he stood up and gave us a standing ovation, and that he said this show should be on TV!

Ok, that's good.

So, after words in the bar next door, I start to have my usual... Belvedere Gimlet Martinis. At which point, my friend leans over to me and says, "Hey, you want a Zanax(sp)?"

I laughed and said, "Sure, but it won't make me cluck like a chicken will it?"

It didn't. But...

Oh my God!

As the night went on, I found myself in an alternate reality. Things and people were around me, but I wasn't really sure that they were there.

I can't quite recall leaving the bar.

Now here is the really scary part. I went to a party after the bar.

I don't remember walking to my car, or driving, or walking to the party, or what happened at the party, but then I do remember wanting to leave.

However, not knowing where my car was, I decided to just go walking and find it. Turns out it was on the main street by the party house, but when I arrived at it, thankfull I had found it, I realized I didn't have my car keys. I peeked into the ignition, but no keys.

Then the next thing I remember is being back at the party, and people saying didn't you leave, and then I must have told someone I lost my keys, though I don't remember that or who, but I do remember the host coming to me and saying sleep on my couch.

Well, I couldn't do that. I have a cat that needs to eat. So, at 4 in the morning, I called my wife, who lives about 30 miles away, and asked her to come get me.

She said ok, and said it would be about 45 minutes, so I left the party, don't remember that, but I know I ended up back at my car. At which point, I layed down on the sidewalk in a nook between two buildings and fell asleep, waiting for her.

When she arrived, I somehow talked her into letting me drive the Geo with her key, so it wouldn't get a ticket, or worse, towed. When I got home, I went right to sleep.

This morning I awoke at 11:30 with no recollection of any of that, until I noticed my couch pillows on the bed next to me. Then it all came back. Where was my wife?

Oh, right, at school teaching.

Wait, where is my wedding ring? It wasn't on my finger! What the hell happened to me?!

Zanax(sp). That, and about 4 Belvedere Gimlet martini's.

Still have no idea what happened at the party. Found the wedding ring in the Geo. Still don't have my keys.

God, aren't Friday nights fun!
