It’s been a while since we celebrated this much under-appreciated day of the week which I’ve dubbed Tippling Tuesday.

So this week, in recognition of how long it’s been since we’ve all hoisted a glass together, I thought I’d ask:

What’s the most stupid thing you’ve done while drinking?*

Mine has got to be the time when, a few months into dating VH (who lived 2500 miles away at the time), I called his house and started talking dirty on the phone, rather explicitly. About 5 minutes into it I noticed that he was being very, very quiet. Then he cleared his voice and said, “Kate, I think you meant to reach my roommate — the one you’re dating. Let me go get him because I know he’s going to want to hear all that.” I never was able to look his roommate straight in the eye afterwards.

* Note that proposing marriage, accepting marriage proposals or conceiving children doesn’t count… unless you were already married to someone else at the time.
