I enjoy the night life, but I always have to talk myself into getting dressed. Once I shower, I'm good to go. Most people are unaware that it only takes one drink to get me drunk. I just never remember if it's the fourth one or the fifth.
My drinking friends are always a hoot to be with and to be quite frank, we spend more time joking and laughing than paying attention to the venue.
But that's how dancing and karaoke was born. After a drink or two, everyone remembers how to dance and naturally, everyone can sing. The best part is that ability is thrown out of the equation as the night progresses.
There are quite a few talented singers in my group and some pretty good dancers, as well. Although I enjoy the singing and dancing, I must admit I'm much more taken by the beautiful women in our group. But, that's just me.....

Picture Of The Day: A toast to my favorite martini ~ Besito
Printable Things I Never Told You: 1) I went to Match dot com. It wasn't to meet women. I went to search for a mate for one of my socks. 2) I tell people my parents are divorced, but technically we lost mom in a corn maze. 3) When your girlfriend asks you if you think it's possible to love someone forever, apparently "If I find the right person" is the wrong answer. 4) "Latte" is Latin for "You paid too much for that coffee." 5) Don't make fun of old people. Making fun of some one's age is like mocking them for getting hit by a train when you're standing a little further down the same tracks.....and that's five!

The man replied, "I'm on my way to a lecture about alcohol abuse and the effects it has on the human body, as well as smoking and staying out late."
The officer then asked, "Really? Who's giving that lecture at this time of night?" The man replied, "That would be my wife."
The Hits Just Keep On Coming: A couple of California boys went on vacation in Colorado. They flew to Denver and rented a car to sight see. One of the sights was a bridge that was more than 1,000 feet above the river.
Walking out onto the bridge, they noticed it swaying in the wind. One of them said, "I don't think I want to drive the car across this bridge." The other one said, "What are you worried about? It's a rental."
A young man from Mississippi came running into the store and said to his buddy, "Bubba, somebody just stole your pickup truck from the parking lot!"

Two old ladies were visiting an art gallery where they happened upon the unveiling ceremony for a new sculpture. Being older ladies, by the time the ceremony was due, they had managed to get to the front.
After all the speeches, the cover was duly whipped off to reveal a life sized Adonis on a four-foot plinth sporting a 10-inch erection. Both old ladies shot to their feet with a gasp.
The first one threw her hands in the air and had a stroke. The second one was a bit shorter and couldn’t reach.
