Sunday night I had way too much to drink and posted things that I am ashamed of. Things that are not indicative of myself or how I think at all. I am not making excuses -- I made the decision to drink. I apologize to RP members whom I offended, directly or indirectly.
It will not happen again.

"Do you write someone off after one bad mistake?"
It would depend.....
If said intoxication allowed for the speaking of "mean things" no, that's recoverable... sticks and stones and all that.....
If the level of intoxication and inhibition it brings with it allowed for some inner feelings, memories, thoughts and desires to come forth and we learned the intoxicated person was coveting the neighbor's minor daughter, plotting the death of a former spouse, recalling the terror they felt after sobering up and realizing the damage on the family minivan was from hitting some guy walking home on the side of the freeway last year...then no, that's not recoverable

Nothing like the latter, SGM. I said derogatory things to a person that I should not have said. Things that I would have reported myself if I came across them.
