keeping up appearances


fortunately not my rearview mirror

Tonight I attended an SML cocktail function.

I stuck to lime and soda and I was exceedingly shocked that I copped precisely no flack from my peers for not drinking alcohol.

This is in stark contrast to 2013 when such occasions were full of “just a little drink”, “go on, just one!” and “you’re really boring” &etc.

And the event was actually nowhere near as ghastly as these things usually tend to be, though I did arrive home quite knackered after standing around for hours and very much after my bed time (then ate way too much chocolate).
