Saturday

Date night. That means we sit home and watch an old movie. Wait a minute! I just realized every night is date night!

Here’s a little note from Richard O. He did something smart the other night:

As you know, people have been known to have unexpected brushes with the authorities from time to time, often on the way home after a “social session” with family or friends.

Well, this year, it happened to me. I was out for the evening to a party and had more than several margaritas coupled with a bottle of rather nice red wine.

It was held at a great Mexican restaurant. Although relaxed, I still had the common sense to know I was slightly over the limit.

That’s when I did something I’ve never done before…I took a taxi home.

On the way home there was a police roadblock, but since it was a taxi, they waved it past, and I arrived home safely without incident. These roadblocks can be anywhere, and I realized how lucky I was to have chosen to take a taxi.

The real surprise to me was that I had never driven a taxi before. I don’t know where I got it, and now that it’s in my garage, I don’t know what to do with it!

    Reminds me of last New Year’s Eve. Went out for the evening, may have had a _little_ too much to drink, but I’ve been there before, and know how to handle it.
    So, headed home, and was doing fine until I turned a corner and some drunk stepped on my hand.
