Last night started simple enough, I was just going over to my buddy Tata's house to get out of the house for a little while.
Two of my kids wanted to go.. (my 2 and 4 year old) really they wanted to go to the store and buy some candy so off we went.
Tata was not home but his Mom said he was down the street at the Sari Sari Store, so we walked down there and he was not there.. but!
A few of my other buddys were there drinking beer.
Let the kids pick out some candy and they were happy enough for awhile, and since I don't drink beer, I asked Dino, Franky, and Bebong if they wanted to drink some Rhum.
And of course they did.. :D
Wasn't long my little one Steve wanted to go home so I invited everyone to go back to our place to have one bottle.
Well..
As you know, just one always turns into "one more" and then later another that we call "last one" then sometimes after is called the "last last one" :lol:
We lost two Tanduay soldiers along the way so now it was just me and Dino Standing and for some reason we thought we needed more Rhum and help finishing the next bottle.
(you should never leave one not empty is the rule)
As we are walking through the village, not sure of the time, but late.. and every dang dog in the village along the way just has to bark, and meanwhile we are going door to door like trick or treaters trying to wake up friends to join us. :seasix:
Keep in mind not everyone here has doors or windows so Dodong's wife was kinda startled when she saw my face inside the window asking for him..
But she just laughed and told me I was drunk.. and so was Dodong... :Jeff '79:
Mostly their wife's just said they were asleep so on to the next house, then the next, and then the next, and meanwhile getting more and more dogs to bark. :datawiz:
By the time we got to Pinoy's house he already knew we were coming from all of the racket and had his flash light on ready to do some drinking business.. :lol:
Now I will be honest... we didn't knock on every door in the village, and we only found one recruit.. but I can assure you that between us and the dogs no one possibly slept through this without being awakened :rofl:
