Everyone goes to dammitland on occasion. But as long as you come back and vow never to go there again - you're cool.

So I got drunk at a party with coworkers and but it was not a work party. Talked shit about one of the girls. Mass shit and tried to hit on someone who has a kid you think someone would bring it up to HR...since it wasn't an actual work party or am I just gonna get a lot of shit? And people are gonna think of me as the drunk bitch?

OP, did you have a friend in attendance who could give you a realistic measure of your behavior. Blabbing about your ex seems a much bigger deal to you than to your colleagues.

Life is a never ending series of tests in which the stakes simply get higher and higher and you cannot fuck up or let your guard down even once or you are doomed.
Lighten up PPs. Marion Barry smoked crack on TV and still sits on the DC Council. OP's regrettable night will only change the views of people who view the world like my paragraph above. And those people are destined to slip up one day too.

I got knee walking drunk, saw the judge that ruled against me at every turn, went up to him and said "I can't believe how wrong you were today. You had no legal basis for doing what you did." nice. The only thing that saved me was that I was relatively young (27) and he was a very good-natured old man. Never did that again though.
Too bad he didn't have your license suspended for a year.

(I'm only sort of kidding.)
When I worked at a large law firm, they had "booze cruises" on a regular basis for the summer associates. We were expected to go on these things and were encouraged to drink a lot. They really wanted to see how you handled your liquor. One guy got so stinkin' drunk, as we pulled into the dock at the end of the night, there he was making out with the managing partners wife. Now THAT is what you don't want to do. The rest of this stuff? Who cares.
Now THAT is a good story!
I'm in the camp of 'who cares'. And, yeah, why would you go to Vegas if you're not going to have any fun?

Me thinks you are more likely to be outcast as THAT employee if you are a woman.

learn to hold your liquor.
if you know you tend to get stupid after a few drinks you should have cut off after your limit.
you have to know yourself and what you are capable of. just because everyone acting bat shit, dont think that gives you the opening to let loose just the same. enjoy your drinks but still try to stand above the rest and not get stupid with it.
its too late in your case but hopefully its lesson learned for you
