Drunk

I'm perhaps a bit drunk. Let's hope this is lucid. I need to recount what I can while I still remember.

My BFF invited me over tonight to meet her husband's newly found biological sister for the first time, and there was drinking. For a change I accepted the offered wine. 

As midnight arrived, my BFF went to bed since she had to work in the morning, and that left me with her husband and his sister. When the sister went into the house for a minute, the conversation took an unexpected turn. 

He and I are a lot alike. World view, sense of humour, style of parenting, and, of course, a sometimes convoluted ways of talking.

He started by talking about what I do for my kids, and that he would do the same, but there was a difference in that his kids would not try to get away with what my kids do. And then he started to meander and talk in semi-riddles.

What he was trying to tell me, I'm not completely sure because my ride home arrived in the middle of what he was saying. 

But...

I consistently, intentionally choose things that are bad for me. "Even setting aside the Filipina", there are examples.

"What do you want?" he had said an hour earlier. "You."

I think he had been wanting to say something to me all night.

But... My youngest son picked me up on time. My BFF's husband gave me a hug on my way out, the same way my BFF would have if she were still awake, and now, twenty minutes later, I'm home.

I'm curious to hear what he had to say. It could lead to a breakthrough for me.
