Drunken groom thinks he’s Godzilla

drunk-groom

Ya, Valentine’s Day is over. I consider this post a very early effort for Chinese Valentine’s Day (Qi Xi, August 26, 2009). Mrs. Stevo is still in England. Lonely and morose, I was flipping through wedding photos. Not the expensive studio shots that cost a month’s salary, the images captured at the reception.

Strong rice alcohol/spirit make some men think they are Godzilla-like Kaiju. This photo is a testament to Mrs. Stevo’s good nature. I should very well be single now. Yes, there are more images like this, I am ashamed to admit. I was told that I offered to buy lunch for everyone in the hotel dining room. I guess I was a generous Godzilla.

red Ravine had a great Valentine’s post, as did Baron Von Rochester, although the opposite end of the spectrum. They (and everyone else) are far more on the ball than I.

A post about Irish Whiskey, the next about a drunken groom. No, I don’t have a problem. Mornings are hard enough without having to deal with a hangover. I’m not the young lad I once was. There are no 12 step programs in my future, Ron.

For you my absent valentine. Wo ai ni. 5201314.

  1. I’ve read that the first step is admitting you have a problem….just sayin’. Like me, you married well!

    Big smile coming from Taiwan tonight. I’m liking these mug shots, Steve. The last one you posted was rather ferocious, while this one has a rather Bean-esque (sorry) element to it. For someone who insists he doesn’t photograph well, I’d say you’re doing a pretty good job.

    “Bean-esque” too funny too early in the morning Carrie, I was leaning towards waiter at a Canadian restaurant look… 🙂

    Of course there’s no 12 step program ahead Stevo, for what it takes to get the Bushmills, it would be easier for you to become an astronaut. I on the other hand… 😉

  4. EG: Some would consider acting like Godzilla “a problem.” Those people have obviously never imbibed bai jiu and experienced its consciousness-altering effects.

    Carrie: Thanks.

    Ron: I was once a Canadian waiter, and not an astronaut, I’m a space cowboy.
