The Morning After....

I can’t help but wonder if any woman has experienced bruised breasts the morning after waking up naked next to your man.

Okay, I had been drinking with friends for at least 5 hours before he picked me up. So he said he didn’t care much for loud places and would come take me home only if I wasn’t drunk. I lost count on how many drinks I consumed but when he called me up the last time I was sober. He picked me up in a cab and we went home to drink 3 bottles of red wine. Next thing I knew we hugged like koala bears and then he wanted to lie down. So I lay next to him. All that small talks led to complete nakedness. There’s something he said that’s stuck in my mind: “your breasts are very supple.”

I woke up the next morning and found several bruised spots all around my chest. And I don’t recall any violent actions in bed. We were heavily under the influence. As a result we were just two happy drunks naked in bed. It will be interesting to chronicle the changes of my bruises in the chest area. And it seems like I won’t be able to wear low cut outfits until the bruises are gone. Sorry boys!

Speaking of bruises, this is not the first time I got bruised. On December 31st 2003 it was a rainy New Year’s Eve. Four of us started drinking at Ben’s condo at 7 and continued to Butterfly on Embarcadero. Mike got really drunk and he and his 220 lbs. body fell on me. Mike fell like a timber and his elbow accidently hit me in the eye. The next morning I woke up with a severe black eye which was so swollen that I could barely see. The bruise lasted for two weeks and I had to wear sunglasses day and night to cover my black eye.
