I love it when you drink enough to:
a) avoid a hangover, (but) b) wake up in a bit of an upstartish mood.
Last night I split from my girlfriend for good. We've had a week off from each other, both attended a party, she got really very drunk and inevitably quite emotional. I had insisted on discussing things when everybody was sober, but was cornered into a decision, in which I said that yes, it was definitely over. It didn't help me one bit that the hosts were her old flatmates; and so I was told it was best for me to leave. Girls trying to be polite in kicking me out.
It's tragic how bitter things have to end; but in a way I'm a very allornothing kind of person, and at least with a bitter ending you know there's really no way of going back again. Bitterness assures you keep moving, forward and onwards towards the truth.
As regards me upstartish mood, a friend of mine who defended me last night by saying that I was just being honest got a glass of water thrown over him. He wasn't bothered, and to be fair it happened when I wasn't there; since I live with the guy AND the girl who threw the water, it probably isn't any of my business. Even so, I must, when everybody is on their comedown later today, talk to her about it. I'm genuinely intrigued by people who lack personalities who, when drunk, feel overly confident and overstep the boundaries they form in soberness.
