Let me start out by saying I am not a drinker. I rarely drink, maybe once every 2 years I'll have a little something, Usually a Rum and Coke. When I DO drink, I even more rarely drink more than 3 drinks. Keeping this in mind, I take you to my 10th wedding anniversary.......
Mark and I were living in Florida at the time. We got married on his birthday so we have 2 things to celebrate that day. The day started out like any other, Mark went to work, I had the day off and did the usual house stuff. His twin brother and his cousin decided they were going to take Mark and I out to celebrate birthdays and our anniversary, so we asked my MIL to babysit out little heathens..errr angels. All together there were six of us, Mark and I, his twin brother Mike and his girlfriend (Annette), and their cousin Wayne and his wife (Dawn).
We arrived at the local watering hole at approximately 8:30 pm. It was a beautiful night, no rain and not to humid or warm. Our first round of drinks were bought for us and we all sat down and chatted until a pool table was open and then the guys slipped off to play leaving us girls at the table. They kept the pool table pretty busy playing doubles with each other and various other patrons for about an hour and a half. During this time, I finished my first drink and was well into my second when I was brought a 3rd. I was then informed that our little group of party goers intended to see me inebriated. Well OK, I thought, I'm already on my way there and I am not driving, why not? So down goes drink #3, unknown to me, each had been prepared with double shots and the alcohol hit suddenly and quickly. After a few more minutes of girl chatter, I excused myself and made my way wobbly to the ladies room, only to have to stand in line for what seemed forever with a bladder on the verge of bursting. I think I may have actually did a "potty dance" during that time, but cannot recall for sure.
Finally, my time arrived and I quickly entered the room of the golden throne, locked the door and did my thing. During this time I could hear much muted yelling but did not think anything of it, after all, I was in a bar. I did remember to wash my hands but discovered there were no paper towels and left the bathroom. Annette and Dawn were no longer at our table so I figured they must be with the guys and shuffled my drunken self off in the general direction of the pool tables. There was Mark, right in front of me, bending over to take a shot. I snuck up behind him and gave him a nice pinch on the ass with my still wet hands. He jumped a foot in the air and turned around and stared at me. To my horror and his amusement it was NOT my hubby but a total stranger with the same build as my husband and wearing the same color t-shirt! I wanted the floor to open up and swallow me right then and there LOL. I hear laughter from a nearby table and turn to see the man's companion laughing her head off . I stammered my apologies to her and she said to me "That's OK honey, it's probably the biggest thrill he has had in years!"
I rushed away as quickly as I possible could in my state and found everyone outside looking for me because I had taken so long to get back from the ladies room. I will never forget that night and pray to God I never repeat it!
