drunken quilting?

Had a 'moment' at Wynyard station where I think I lost consciousness for a few seconds, tonight. One minute I was texting a friend I was going to catch up with after dinner, the next, I was being held up by the friend I'd just been to dinner with. Good thing he was there to catch me, or I'd have been sprawled on Wynyard Stn Platform 4 with no idea how I got to be there.

Never had that happen to me before.

Then again, I think I had about 5-6 standard drinks this evening. Um. And may not have been entirely sober by the time I drove home.

All things considered, I should have caught a taxi. (Who would have thought a Long Island Tea had three shots of alcohol in it? I was expecting one!) I won't be doing that again, I can tell you!

On the other hand, I can now safely say that Spice Temple restaurant has delicious food, but I'm not sure I'd pay around 6x as much as I would at the local Chinese restaurant. (Chinese restaurant as in "they have two menus: one for Chinese people and one for the foreigners," and "no, you can't get sweet-and-sour anything," and "yes, that is thousand year egg, and no, it's not one thousand years old, just eat the damn thing already!") The differential in taste and presentation is simply not that great.
