Happy New Year!
Well Happy new year to everyone. We had a new year's eve party it was quite fun::) Nice family affair where people could bring their kids and they had non alcoholic sparkling grape juice while we had a nice size mini bar going on downstairs. still trying to get rid of alcohol from Carl and Elaine's wedding. Yes we STILL have some of that. Well all of us are fairly social drinkers and know our limits so pretty confident it would be a lot of buzzed people playing board games. Well we invited this one really shy girl from tae kwon do. God love her, she is in her late 20's early 30's and still lives with her mother. She is awkward and shy but really nice. Anyway she comes in with a bottle of wine and I figured she might have one or two drinks and then be bored out of her mind. Did I mention she doesn't drive so her mother ( a sweet religious gray haired lady) dropped her off and was picking her up at 12:10 ( you getting the party animal vibe yet?) So anyway she asks me to mix her a drink so I give her a frozen midori sour. She says she likes it and then wants to try something else so i mix some ameretto with gin and sweet and sour. i think it's called a bend me over, well anyway she liked it but I had cut waaaayyyy back on the gin cause I didn't think she would like the taste. Well the night progressed and people were a little tipsey and cranium was played. about 11:30 we broke out mad gab and then the fun started. The lady was sitting over by our christmas tree and looks really really bad so I ask " are you OK?" she grins says "yes" I hold up 3 fingers and say "how many fingers have I got up?" she says "3" I say "You're good" and we go back to playing. About 5 min later I hear "ruuuuuup" and look over to see vomit all over this chick she didn't even move . Everyone stared for a few sec and then Greg yells "anyone going to help her?" I think we were all in shock. So all of a sudden we all jump up I run into the kitchen to grab towels. Luckily some professional drunks were there and helped get her into our bathroom unfortunately not quick enough to keep her from puking all over my bathroom. There are rumors she shit herself also but Greg says she didn't. I wouldn 't know as I started gagging. We get the big strong guys to help her as she has passed out. I hand off towels trying not to breath through my nose cause if I smell there will be two puking women. Well her sweatshirt is ruined so I run up to try and find her something clean now nothing of mine is going to fit so I got a sweatshirt of Greg's then Mr. G ( our tae kwon do teacher) yells up the stairs "hey laraine you better bring a thong down too!" They all start laughing and I about piss myself. In the mean time my son ( you know the 5 year old who has been drinking 'his wine' all night) yells "OH MY GOODNESS someone threw up downstairs. So then I try to keep about 6 kids upstairs who want to see the strangeness of a drunk woman puking all over the house. so we get her somewhat cleaned up and then Neal and jeremey take her outside to get fresh air. they call her mom to get her early and she starts crying because her mom is going to be mad and can we tell her mother that she got sick off the food or something. Apparently she got drunk for the first time in May and her mother bought a breathalizer to test her when she got home. So not only do i have to clean up puke but now all of a sudden I feel like I'm in high school again trying to cover up the me, Brent, John, Jason C, Paul, Joy , Kris, Carl , Seth, and jason O weren't drinking but just ate too much and stayed up too late. I felt like I was serving minors or something!!! There shouldn't be guilt I mean she's a grown woman! Then she starts telling me that she was in there mixing her own drinks and poured double the amt of alcohol in there she saw me putting in and that she's diabetic and on anti depressants....HELLO she shouldn't be drinking! so anyway her mom shows up and is mad I don't know if she's mad at her or us but we tell her that the sausage balls might have been bad, but momma wasn't having any of that she said "you wouldn't tell me if she was drinking" . So after feeling properly chastised the party kinda went flat. We watched the ball drop and then everyone kinda started getting things together and leaving by 2:00 everyone but Johnna was gone. We watched Eddy Izzard and then went to sleep. Lots of fun! :)
