i have one involving absinth in Prague, or Praha i guess i should say. i was staying with a friend but he had a business meeting, so i went to a bar with some Irish kids i had met the night b4, my friend had no idea when his 'meeting' would be over and i had no idea where his place was, so we agreed to meet at midnight in the old town square, then if he wasn't there i would come back every hour and eventually we would meet up. so i drank absinth for about four hours, stumble out of the bar at midnight to the square, wait 10 min, he doesn't show, no problem, back to the bar and Irish accented fun. 1am, not there, 2am, not there. and now the bar is closed. i sit on the bench and the only thing keeping me awake is the constant stream of seedy looking fellows asking me either if i would like to buy or sell hash. i start to become annoyed with the drug dealers and become belligerent, start telling them to fuck off and what not, i notice i am getting looks from Chech police. someone taps me on the shoulder, i turn and take a swing, miss, fall flat on my face, ripping my pants at both knee and bloodying myself, i get up and puke in a trash can, then finally i look and see it was the good Irish who had tapped me. they took me back to their room, clean me up and let me spend the night.
it turns out my friend got wasted and just forgot to come and get me. it could have been so much worse if that had been a cop i swung at.
