[Previous entry: "I'm lovin' it"] [Main Index] [Next entry: "Berlin update"] 15/07/2004 Spurt: "Singleton Rule # 563" The evidence has started to pile in – which leads me to this: “Forgive me friends, for I have sinned. I appear to have broken singleton rule # 563. For this I am deeply sorry.” First came an e-mail – it was there waiting for me when I woke up and struggled to my computer this morning, hoping to find a comforting message or two. Instead the e-mail from a mate informed me of a movie-plan we’d made. Apparently I’d suggested that we meet tonight at 10:30pm. That’s this evening, a weekday! A weekday on the busiest most exhausting day at work of the week! Why on earth did I suggest meeting late on a Thursday? For some reason when we spoke last night I’d asked to see him Friday, but since he was busy then, I’d offered Thursday evening instead. But then, realising that I already have dinner plans in Wapping tonight, I’d said I could only meet at 10:30. I haven’t quite figured out why he agreed (I think he was sober), but he did. Finding out this morning, in the mid-headache-filled waking up stage, that I have to be in Brixton at 10:30 tonight was not really what I would call ideal – but I comforted myself with a big glass of water and ploughed on. The paracetamol seemed to take care of things fairly quickly and I once the morning was over (and I’d got back into productive-P mode) I thought I was safe and dry. But no! I’ve just received a text message from Barbara-darling, and apparently I proposed to her. I don’t even remember talking to her, let alone proposing. Thank god she knows I’m gay. Can’t imagine how awful it could have been if she didn’t know and thought I fancied her! I checked, and at least I didn’t try to make any plans to meet with her – but she just laughed when I asked her what we had talked about. Shucks. A slight source of comfort is that as I got ready for work, I found my wallet in the front room – and not in the bed room (where I presumably made the calls from!)…. So that’s one potential disaster that didn’t happen. Or perhaps that’s a shame; I might have all sorts of goodies being delivered if I’d had my Amex with me!) I remember being very hungry during the night, and wishing McDonald’s delivered. I have this awful feeling that I might, just possibly, have called up the operator and tried to convince her that it’d be a really cool thing if she organised such a delivery service. Given that I can’t remember any 118 numbers at the best of times, and that I detest MaccyD’s, it was probably just a weird dream I had, rather than something I actually did – but the possibility that it just *might* have happened, even if it’s REALLY REALLY unlikely, does make me cringe. Shame on me P! In a rather enlightened moment I must have called and left a long message on Mr Q’s answer phone, asking him to e-mail me certain pieces of information I was afraid of forgetting. And true to form, he e-mailed them to me. I was delighted at that stroke of genius. I am Mr No-short-term-memory; given that I didn’t remember making the call, I would indeed not have remembered that when I was still sober I had organised certain things for later in the week. Sadly, given on the one hand, the completeness of Mr Q’s e-mail, and on the other hand, the absence of any notes on tonight’s movie plans, I can only conclude that I made the call to my “PA” first. – Which leaves me without any documentation about the most embarrassing calls. What I find most alarming about having broken singleton rule # 563 “never drink-and-dial”, is that between now and getting my itemised phone bill I have absolutely no way of knowing *how many* other calls I made last night – how many people am I accidentally going to stand up? This is not good. Can I make a humble appeal to all my friends to inform me of any plans I suggested or made late last night? (Mind you, my dearest friends), if I just made a fool of myself, rather than a plan, I’m not entirely certain I need to be reminded of the fact! I’m being honest and open – be gentle, OK? ;-) Right, now that I’ve appropriately pleaded, it’s time to get back to writing my lines:
I must never ever drink and dial

Well at least you didn't do something even more risky and hurt yourself physically. Take care, and thanks for sharing...this is a good lesson for all. And don't worry. Relax and go with the flow!

You make me laugh and laugh and laugh sometimes, P. If it's any consolation, the message you left was long and you mumbled in your usual style but you did not sound drunk. And you said nothing surprising to me - except the request to suddenly become your PA... so I wouldn't worry too much about what you might have got up to. (This from the king of worry.) All I would ask is that you remove any record you have of my landline number - so that you never risk actually waking me up next time you drink and dial. Oh yes, I am quite sure it will happen again!
