I don't know if you noticed, but I wrote that all out only a few hours after this ended. I think I drink rather well considering I'm not hungover, I wasn't the one out of control, and I didn't end up hurling all over anything/body. I've actually been doing housework- as I planned- this morning. So I don't consider this a problem. My friend on the other hand gave us the scare, and that was my reasoning behind writing this all down.
I walked over there a bit ago and woke him up. He did not have any recollection of the weirdness he experienced and didn't know why he did such things. Alcohol is a hell of a drug for sure. Mind you, this is a guy who is, right now, laying on his couch, shivering with a bad, bad hangover. And I'm typing on the internet, cleaning my house, and doing other normal saturday morning stuff.
So if you think I have some problem, or can't control my habits, I'd disagree. I wrote the story to convey my night partially as a way to sum it up for myself and partially as a warning to others. Not to be chastised for my actions which resulted in absolutely nothing detrimental to me besides a bad cut which wasn't of my doing.
Yet obviously I won't be repeating this sort of escapade for a while.
And yes, my friend did actually tell me once that he was diagnosed, by a medical professional, as bi-polar. However this 'episode' I described, after talking to him this morning, was just a lot of drunkeness. I assumed that, because of his craziness, that his previous medical condition might have had something to do with it but I was wrong. He was just that drunk. It took me a bit to understand this because, as I said, I had about the same amount, if not more, to drink and I sobered up and went on with my business.
