hangover

So the party happened. I didn't attend, of course.
Next day, people are not a little bit smiley to each other, it is exactly the same coldness as before the party. I am impressed, to say the least.
So, the "postman" is still not around by 10am. Someone starts doing Johan's job of transporting the boxes of mail, distributing the newspapers, etc.
Me, the curious, I ask:
- Is Johan sick?
- Nei, he got a bit too much to drink yesterday.
-Ah! And I went on, doing my own business.
Around noon, Johan arrives, smiles to one, greets no one, and goes by, doing the rest of his tasks, just like nothing!
And no-one asks him a word! I am impressed!
