Yay me, boo her
Night on town with friends, dinner, too many drinks, same old same old. Persuaded to go to local bar renowned for being too busy, too smokey, too loud etc.

Mate introduces me to a friend of his we bump in to at the bar. She is with her 'nice personality' friend. She has a pint of stella in her hand, me a bottle of Veba (for those of you who don't know it is sugary, ruby red stuff, crap but hey this was late, don't judge me and I won't judge you!). My opening gambit is "Why are you drinking a bloke's drink?" She replies "Why are you drinking a girl's?" I then proceeded to lambaste her for her choice of previous boyfriend (who it turned out I knew)...following this I picked her up (yes, you read that right) carried her to the dance floor and danced at her for a bit. I am neither graceful nor talented in this regard. I also forgot her name and had to put her number in my phone under * so that I would be able to identify it later.

That was six years, one wedding, two kids and three houses ago. She still hasn't forgiven me for forgetting her name.
