The Drunk Dial

Last night I was woken up at 1am by a drunk dial from an old friend. This happened to be a very classic drunk dial. One that involved saying "I got something to tell you but don't get mad" and then saying something that involved an expression of emotion that they would have never said sober and then repeating it over and over through out the conversation. Now that you are all probably thinking about the worst drunk call you ever received or made does it ever occur to you why? Most of us, if not all, spend a night out and always end up calling someone and saying something that makes you cringe in the morning. How many delete their text messages and out going calls in the morning before reading them? Every once in a while you call someone who you talk to on a regular basis but most of the time we call people we normally don't call sober which makes the drunk dial so much better. There is nothing better then dialing that ex boyfriend/girlfriend either screaming or sobbing on the other end. Or even better, dialing your parents when your roommate hooks up with the boy you like. (sounds ridiculous...happens) While the drunk dial can lead to most of not wanting to see daylight for the next 48 hours, once, in a blue moon, we have a little fun with the drunk dial. For example, late night food. Technically that's a drunk dial that we might regret but don't swear yourself to sobriety over. In fact, that late night food made be the best thing that's you have ever had! (You all know what I am talking about) Sometimes we call our crush and don't end up saying the most terribly embarrassing thing in the world but managing to simply come off as flirty ;)! While this is rare, not all drunk dials ruin lives. I have managed to kick the drunk dial habit and no longer partake so there is hope for all of us. However, I must say as the sober person who picks up the phone at 1am, keep them coming because they are quite enjoyable!
