Because I needed time to myself to rest and do some work, I told my OA friends that I could either go to the committee co-chair’s party or the camping trip. I opted for the party because it would be a new experience for me. Well… I got what I asked for.

Upon arrival, I had some punch. That was a big mistake because that was the obvious thing that people would spike with alcohol at parties. I proceeded to have a jello shot because the host said that it has no alcohol. That was also a mistake. Fortunately, there was no effect because I remained sober enough to learn my lesson and to escort my friend (who had a bit more than I did) home.

Time to bump all my OA friends’ trust bars down a bit…
