Just one beer....

Last night I went to the gym with Teresa. We had a great work-out, made all the people around us blush with our conversation ( ha ha!! ) and then I went home...or that is where I was on my way to. I drive through my neighborhood and the "dads" are in one of their garages. Okay, so sometime over the past 2 years I think I have become one of the "dads". I have no clue if they even realize I am a girl.

So, I stop to say "hey" and they tell me to grab a beer. I was like, "Okay, but I can only have one beer because I have got to get home" Anyway, the guys are chatting and talking and I am listening to conversations about "guy" stuff I guess. Whoops, the beer is empty, time to head home..." Jill, just have another beer" ( oh and I didn't add that it is Miller Lite which, well, without being snotty...it isn't my drink of choice, but it was there so that is what I drank). " Okay, I will have just one MORE beer". When I finished this beer the dad's wife had come home. She insisted that I stay and have another beer, "Just one beer Jill". Actually I don't think I finished that beer, but none the less I am sure how you can see how "just one beer" can turn into a drunken Monday night. I left soon after that and went home.

I did have "just one beer".....just three times.

Today I have a pounding headache from the small quantity of Miller Lite that I did consume... that folks would be why I do not usually drink Miller Lite. I think next time I hang out with the dad's I will go to the store and get "just one beer" of a brand that won't leave me with a splitting headache.

Off to take more Excedrin....
