Here it is, the Story of One...
"Rendezvous
What I remember is dinner and a few drinks. Dancing with someone I thought was a friend and then with someone I'd not met before. And waking up what seemed like 2 seconds later in a strange bed. I was lucky. A friend had taken me home, cleaned me up and looked after me. I was completely blacked out for 12-14 hours, though apparently I was 'dancing' and such for a while. I have absolutely no memory of this. I had conversations with people - I don't remember. I was dragged around, dropped and worse on the dancefloor before my friends found me barely conscious and carried/dragged me to the van. I threw up all over myself, my friends' van and house. I was undressed to my underwear, cleaned up and had my hair washed- I don't remember. I fell over and smacked my head. I don't remember. I rarely drink, but have a high tolerance, I don't throw up, pass out or get hung-over. In fact, I very rarely go anywhere except work and home. But I thought Rendezvous was a fun communitey event. Afterward, I started piecing together what happened. I'm not the only one. What I was told is that this happens there and everybody knows it. I was NOT BY FAR the only one. But I'm telling my story to do what I can to be the be the last one that ever has to go through this.
If this happens to you, get a urine test w/i 24 hours- took me too long to figure it out to do this, so I'll never be able to prove what was in that drink. File a police report- like I did. And if a friend didn't take you home, check for signs of rape and go to a doctor immediately. I was lucky too have woken up at all- almost died the rockstar death of choking on my own vomit- pretty. And if you see a friend acting TOTALLY out of character- get her home....and get her to pee in a cup for a drug test."
