Have you ever been drunk?

To day I got a (another) proof of how out of this world my father is. Or at least of how little he knows me. Or maybe what he wants to know about his daughters. I was having lunch with my parents and the discussion somehow led in on alcohol and all of a sudden he asks me; “Gudrun, have you ever been drunk? “
I almost choked and did not know how to react. Especially as I realise that there is no humour or irony in his question. My mother burst out laughing, but I really did not know what to say. Especially as he somehow seemed to misunderstand our reactions and started explaining; “I mean have you ever drunk that much that you felt dizzy? Not, that I think you have, but…..”
Come on!!!
The only thing I could say was that if he hadn’t figured that out by now, he needn’t know now either and that the question might have been motivated when I was 15, but now…..

Have a nice weekend!
I will go and get drunk! :-)

Some of my friends thought my father deserves a medal for this question! It gave them the laugh of the year!
