A week of firsts

Saturday night: Got whipped in table tennis really badly(21-4). Never happened before. Played against this dude who was new to the country at a post Halloween costume party. I guess the paddles were really crappy and I was drunk but still. Earlier he beat my friend at pool with an amazing comeback. Anyway after our table tennis contest he poured me a drink of straight vodka like he was drinking. I had to drink more because I was determind not to lose against him again! Well, later after I got home and was sleeping, I awoke with a distinct urge to vomit. Filled up my sink nicely but I guess I did lose that last contest as well.
Lesson: Never try to drink a Slovak under the table.
This was some amazing house where the party was, by the way. The dude designed it himself and it has multiple levels with half floors, a swimming pool+jacuzzi+sauna and a section with massively grown exotic plants. The house is like an adult sized jungle-jim(gym?).

Another first was trying a tennis racquet strung with natural for the first time. Well, it's exciting for me. There were some other firsts but we won't go into them here.

EDIT: One thing I forgot to mention was that I also had my first experience ever in dreaming about food. I was eating some great shrimp+lobster with rice and fries. Then I awoke with a great hunger and I thought I would be dissapointed that I wouldn't get to eat what I dreamt about. But I wasn't. Ta
