something stupid this way comes
So we were at a friend's wedding.
Fine, it was technically the night before the wedding, and we were at a hotel. Details.
I don't know what your friends are like, but mine are generally drunkards. I imagine most people have very dignified ways of going about socializing. I imagine most people sitting up very straight while drinking tea, the corners of their mouths curling demurely around their cups as they exchange warmhearted pleasantries with dear pals, laughter as gentle as the tinkling of a spoon in a saucer. Then it's to bed by 8:30 p.m. sharp because goodness, one needs one's rest. Doesn't one?
