They don’t call it “Liquid Courage??? for nothing.
Every sip we take is basically another pull of the Harry Potter truth serum, and we get a little cocky. A lot cocky. To the point, where we convince ourselves that it is a great idea to text that forbidden person (i.e. professing our love for them, telling them, “I miss you???, or sending a couple non-too-discreet hate texts their way.)
It’s embarrassing, it’s a mistake… But it’s mainly just hilarious. If we don’t laugh about it, we’ll cry about it. I choose to laugh.
So, here’s a list of thoughts that go through our heads, while we drunk text. (No. 21 is my every time…unfortunately.)
- I should really tell them how I feel.
- I mean, honesty really is the best policy.
- Imma take a shot before I hit send.
- I am not going to regret this in the morning.
- I sound so calm in this text.
- I’m not crazy – I’m in tune to my emotions.
- I need to spell this correctly so that they don’t know I’m drunk.
- Okayyy…I made a typo. They don’t know I’m drinking.
- Everyone makes typos. I could be driving.
- (*Giggle) This is kind of funny.
- I haven’t heard from them in awhile.
- I wonder where they are at right now. Maybe they want to come hang out?!
- Bootayyy
- (*To our girlfriend) You don’t know. This is a good idea.
- If they don’t respond positively, I won’t care.
- I am confident.
- Mmm…that text was SO scandalous.
- I’m proud of myself.
- He’s going to be thrilled when he reads that text.
- I NEED TO MOVE TO ALASKA.
- I’ll delete these texts, so I don’t have to see them in the morning.
