I rarely lose whole memories while drinking. Whether that means I don't drink quite enough to get there, or if it's a gift, I don't know. But I like the ability.

I was walking my (even-more) drunk friend back to her house where we had started the evening. She was not walking very well. I had an arm around her. It was a clumsy affair. Right after we crossed a street I could kind of see her start to go down. If you've ever had a slow fall where you have the time to think "Oh, shit, I'm falling" but just don't manage to catch yourself or do anything to prevent it - it was like that except I saw it start with her, and then she went down, and I went down with her. She does not remember this but she only has bumps and bruises. I'm pretty sure she managed to fall on her side or butt; she twisted in front of me. This was about 10:30; we'd started early. And the shots. shudders

It wasn't too bad, being drunk helps with that. It hurt but I walked quite a bit after any.way.

When we fell some people on the balcony of the bar across the street made fun of us, so I flicked them off and told them to eat it. They didn't say anything back. D:
