Survived first party ever... sober
So it was my best friends birthday party, I knew there would be a lot of drinking going on, I had to test myself. There was a storm coming in so I had an escape route if needed... Anyway, watched a few people pass out, smelled the fumes in the air, had my smokes and Mtn Dew, all was good... It was pretty easy. Add the fact that I promised my 11 yr old daughter I wouldn't drink. She didn't believe me, after we got home she said she was proud of me and gave me a big hug.
