Today I learned that the bar can actually leave you...

I actually learned this last week, but I was at a conference without easy access to my laptop to post. And it's my blog anyway, so I can make up the rules, right? Anyhoo, we were at a cocktail reception, which I vowed to only stay at for only an hour. Well, I held to my vow, but only because the bar actually left me. At 7pm on the dot, they wheeled that baby right out of there. Do you know how many times in my life I've actually needed the bar to leave me and it didn't? I think this practice should be fully implemented in other places as well. And while we're at it... can my cell phone also leave me after three or four glasses of wine? Please and thanks. :-)
