About
Last Night
After the annual office Christmas
party blow-out, John woke up with
a pounding headache, cotton-mouthed,
and utterly unable to recall the events
of the preceding evening.
After a trip
to the bathroom he was able to make
his way downstairs, where his wife
put some coffee in front of him. "Louise,
" he moaned, "Tell me what
went on last night. Was it as bad
as I think? " "Even worse,
" she assured him in her most
scornful tone. "You made a complete
ass of yourself. You succeeded in
antagonizing the entire board of directors,
and insulted the chairman of the company
to his face. " "He 's an
arrogant, self-important prick, piss
on him! " "You did. All
over his suit, " Louise informed
him.
"And he fired you. "
"Well, screw him, " said
John. "I did, said Louise, "You
're back at work on Monday. "
