It was a Simhat Torah at the Moroccan synagogue in the Upper East Side during the evening part of the celebration.
I had about a flask full of scotch, half a bottle of arak, and about 5 large cups of wine (it was actually a really good wine from what I remember, but the guy at the synagogue poured it into one of those huge red party cups when I just asked for water!), but I was still pretty sober.
So I see this extraordinarily beautiful woman, and I try to flirt with her, but this guy comes up to me and tells me, in Hebrew, that it's his wife. I apologize of course, and I tell him I wouldn't have said anything to her if I would have known.
About 5 minutes later, this guy grabs my shoulder, so I grab his shirt and asked if he wanted something (I think I even said it as if I was talking to a woman). Then he tells me to come with him, and he takes me to the front of the synagogue where there a bunch of guys holding bottles and bottles of arak. He takes two bottles and hands one over to me (it was about 3/4 full). Then he clinks his bottle with mine, and we say lehaim.
(oh yeah, I was really hungover and dehydrated for a few days after that)
