Dear Second Life,
I have what I think might be a funny, true story to share with you, or at least for me it is hilarious,
that taught me a very good lesson in life.
Of course, many of our funny stories weren't funny at all when they were happening to us.
But before I begin, I must make a confession...
I always tell people that I have never drunk (alcohol) in my life.
This is, in a way, somehow true, however, I did once.
The very first time my lips ever touched a bottle was when I was around 15 years old.
I know, I feel so ashamed :(
But now let me explain, this is how my funny story begins...
I was around fifteen as I mentioned before,
and I had been very sick with the flu and in bed not able to do anything for days.
There was a carnival in town that I wanted to go to with my friends so I kept praying
I would feel better by nighttime. As the hours approached near to the afternoon I was still
feeling miserable with chills and fever. One of our neighbors suggested a shot of Tequila
with lemon saying it was the perfect cure for the flu. Desperate for a rapid cure, I accepted
to try it and our neighbor then pulled out from her purse a small, unopened tequila bottle that she
has just boughten.
She then helped me to the kitchen table where I sat on a chair right in front where she had placed the
tequila bottle. As she poured a small amount of Tequila into a cup she guaranteed that in no time I
would be feeling much better and that I should drink it slowly and then she stepped outside
to talk to my grandmother.
I started taking tiny sips at first, barely touching my lips.
At first, the tequila was too strong that it felt hot, burning my throat.
However, I continued taking tiny sips until I finished all the cup's content in hopes
that I would be ready by nighttime to join my friends.
"Mmm, maybe if I drink another shot I'll get better even faster." I thought.
So I took another shot, and then another, and another...
By then the Tequila didn't taste or feel as bad and it was more as if I was drinking
just plain water.
I do not know how many shots of tequila I ended up taking but when I tried getting
up from the chair, I fell back on my butt, dropping all the pots and pans from the counter with me.
My grandma and the neighbor rushed in and when they realized what I had done,
they took me back to bed. The hell I felt once my poor head hit the pillow was unbearable.
Everything in the room was just spinning and spinning around me and I kept screaming for it to stop.
The sad thing though, was I wasn't able to attend the carnival that night
or the next or any other day. Not only was I drunk as hell that day, but the next day I experienced
my first and ONLY hangover in life. And worse thing, it didn't cure my flu at all.
So yes, I did drink once I do admit, but that was enough to last me a whole lifetime,
especially the hangover. So my beautiful people, the lesson learned here is
tequila doesn't cure the flu.
Mmm... now that makes me wonder if that is what left me in the goofiness state I am always in?
Forever Yours,
