The Mayhem Ensues
The Mayhem Ensues
Well, the office party is just starting. Setting out appies and putting out the booze. I am tempted; I will not lie.
However, I have my sparkling juice to drink (pomegranate), and am constantly reminding myself that I do not want a drink.
I am going to get ready, do my hair, put on my face, get my dress on, and that will keep me busy for the next, oh 20 mins or so.
Mayhem at my office party always happens. Lots of heavy drinkers here. I will NOT be taking part this year.
If I find myself in a situation where the temptation is getting to real, I will come on SR, or I will leave, or both. Wish me luck!

You have a great plan. And, you'll be in a prime position to amuse yourself with people watching. Have fun at the party. Stay safe.

My office party was last week, I felt so proud and happy, later in the evening, when I was home and surfing around SR, stone cold sober and no hangover or embarrassment to contend with the next day!
I have to admit I reached around and patted myself on the back
You've got this, Vona

Good idea on leaving early before the mayhem ensues

Great plan and you will be sober to take pictures of your colleagues making asses of themselves. If you are uncomfortable definitely leave (make sure you do like ZeldaFan and grab some cupcakes on the way out).
Gotta grab some goodies before you leave to make it worth your time, haha Office parties at my company always end in some kind of drama so even if I wasn't sober I would still leave early. The less I know the better when the you know what hits the fan.
I wanted to share with you all that I woke up this morning with NO hangover. Why, you ask? Because I did not drink at the office party last night! It was about 5:30 when things were really going, and I wanted to leave, and almost did. I did a little self talk, decided to stay, poured myself another sparkling juice and danced a couple songs. I actually had fun after that. Home by 9:00.
I actually had fun at a party without alcohol. Imagine that? Not gonna lie, there were some tough spots, and I left before the mayhem ensued.
xoxo to all of you.
