The majority rules

Thank you to all who participated in the "What would you do... drunk guy" survey. Most of you agreed with my actions of calling the police. I felt a little bad doing so. But, seriously. That guy should NOT have been driving.

Maybe next time I will just try the tackle technique...

So wrong

H and I went to a Halloween party this past Saturday. She dressed as a baby on an old woman's back. (Hilarious.) I, compliments of a co-worker who randomly had a costume in her car the night before, dressed as a St. Pauli's girl. (Slightly risqué, but it was free so I figured it would be ok for just one night...)

Anyway, while at this party, I was introduced to a woman who was deck out in Renaissance apparel. About halfway into our conversation it dawned on me that she had a bump under her garment and appeared to be quite pregnant. Now, with a Mike's Hard Lemonade in her hand, I assessed the situation and thought, "hmmm... well maybe she's dressed up as a pregnant Renaissance woman." Not so much. About two minutes later she was talking about giving birth soon to her second child. All the while, drinking hard liquor.

I felt so awkward. I excused myself from the conversation claiming I had to use the restroom.

Now, I've always been a supporter of pregnant woman being able to have a glass or two of wine while pregnant. After actually seeing a six-month's along woman downing Mike's, though, I may definitely think twice about supporting it in the future. It was just so wrong on so many levels.
