https://youtu.be/hmnnywt-0NYYou’re buzzed, that’s for sure. Draining the remaining bubbly from the glass in your hands, you let out an exultant sigh as you feel the booze tickle you from your tongue to your tummy leaving you with a pleasant, if not somewhat dry feeling on your tongue. Not bad, you remark to no one in particular, not bad at all!
A faint sea breeze tickles your bare shoulders as you watch partygoers flit between white, billowing tents along the coastal cliffside like ants at a picnic. Your trusty <span class="mu-b">FEMININE INTUITION</span> tells you that you know some of them–that you’ve met some of them before, maybe, but as you pleasantly sway on your high heeled shoes, you find your hazy head coming up blank.
<span class="mu-i">Great.</span>
Gently tugging the hem of your <span class="mu-g">SLINKY BLACK DRESS</span> lower, you give the faceless masses a look of contempt–probably all of <span class="mu-r">HER</span> friends and family. As you twirl the empty champagne glass in your hand, an unpleasant thought occurs to you–you’re gonna have to <span class="mu-s">MINGLE</span> with them, aren’t you?
You subconsciously take another sip from your glass before remembering it’s empty. Dang it! Regarding the cup with a rueful sigh, you resolve to try and make the most of the situation–not like it’s <span class="mu-i">your</span> special day, after all. <span class="mu-i">‘Stiff upper lint’</span>, or whatever dad would say…
You’ve been here before, though, haven’t you? That’s how you know where you went next…
