Wow. That's dedication.

All right, you caught me: yes, I have had at least two glasses of sangria. And yes, it was at work. Yes, I am going to be staying put for a little while. Oh, okay, okay, yes, I also told this joke to 'most all my coworkers. I wasn't even drunk yet. THEY weren't even drunk yet. *sigh*
