bethb's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- q and a with beth b. whooo hooo, we have not only a question for me, but a new(?) reader! Welcome to Lara. Now for the question (not from Lara, but from London) dear miss manners, What is the etiquette when seeing someone that you've only met drunk and perhaps told your whole life story to? thank you from London. Ok, so the predicament here is you're not *sure* if you told this chap (and we have to use 'chap' since we're dealing with a limey, no?) (ps. for those of you offended by the term 'limey', well then...sod off!)your life story and if so how do you deal? The resident Boy in the Room says simply 'stay drunk'. I however, while not sure of how well you know this bloke, say you could try the self depricating 'i dunno how much i told you...' approach, or just flat out quiz him on stuff you might have told him. If the problem seems to be the omnipresent alcohol and wondering if you'd still like him stone-cold sober,i suggest trying something g-rated (shopping at picadilly or whatever? riding the tube? i've never been to london so i'm afraid i can't suggest something fun and non-aniebriated to try. moreover, barb, is this the guy from your class with the critiques? whoooo hooooo. i envy you. xoxo beth b. ps. maybe i shouldn't do this whole advice thing. 9:40 a.m. - 2001-03-29 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
