19 CLUES TO CALLING IT A NIGHT:
YOU KNOW IT'S TIME TO GO HOME WHEN ...
1. You have absolutely no idea where your shoes are.
2. You've just had to get someone to help you pull your pants up in the ladies room.
3. You suddenly decide you want to kick someone's ass.
4. In your last trip to "pee" you realize you now look more like Tammy Faye Baker than the goddess you were just four hours ago.
5. You drop your 3:00 a.m. burrito on the floor, pick it up and carry on eating.
6. You start crying.
7. There are less than three hours before you're due to start work.
8. You've found a deeper side to the office nerd.
9. The man you're flirting with used to be your 5th grade teacher.
10. The urge to take off articles of clothing, stand on a table and sing becomes strangely overwhelming.
11. You've forgotten where you live.
12. You've started to sound like Jessie Ventura from the cigarettes you've smoked, because (as you've mentioned 10 times by now) you only smoke when you drink.
13. You yell at the bartender, who (you think) cheated you by giving you just tonic, but that's just because you can no longer taste the gin or vodka.
14. You think you're in bed, but your pillow feels strangely like pizza.
15. You start every conversation with a booming, "Don't take this the wrong way but..."
16. You fail to notice that the toilet lid's down when you sit on it.
17. Your sloppy hugs begin to resemble wrestling take-down moves.
18. You're tired so you just sit on the dancefloor (and why not!).
19. You show your friends that girls can pee standing up if they really want to.
Jeff said at 5:11 PM 03-31-2001: That was a pretty keen message you left on my machine the other day (aka: 2 weeks ago). Feeling like doing anything tonight? I want to, as the kids say, "boogie".
Ricklish said at 6:35 PM 03-31-2001: Perhaps. I will give you a ring . . . the audible kind, clearly . . . I do not want my ass kicked by Lil' Merry-Berry
Brandon said at 9:19 PM 03-31-2001: What an excellent, comprehensive list. Mine includes: 14. You start putting out cigarettes on your forearms for drinks; 3. You schedule a date and trade phone-numbers with someone who wants to take you on a pharmaceutical "trip" that includes loratab and intravenously adminstered heroin; 10. After she accidentally drops your head on the toilet, you fart on that gracious person who so kindly agreed to take care of you
Lynnr said at 3:51 PM 04-02-2001: No. 4: That bitch you work with offers to hold your hair (while you puke) and you suddenly find yourself telling her, quite sincerely, that's she's a "really good friend."
Gen said at 4:29 PM 04-02-2001: No. 19: Mariela has time and time again shown the world that girls can pee standing up. No. 12 also applies to Mariela.
No. 8: I found a deeper to my nerdy micro lab partner... had mad sex with him, and am still "involved" with the bloke. No. 13: I used to do that to Nathan (Mar's ex) all the time: I'd cuss him out for being skimpy with the vodka and then he'd taste my drink, make a face, and tell me I'm totally fucking pissed (which I'd of course deny).
