New Years Eve

I drove to Des Moines to spend NYE with my sister, Kristin, and some of here friends. The night started great and took a quick turn for the worse. I am not sure where this turn came from. Please help me identify the critical point in the evening where things went sour.
1. Ate Big Tomato Pizza
2 Had one Miller High Life Light
3 Went to pre-party at friend of friends house
4 Realized that pre-party was a Obama supporter caucus party, decided that it might not be a good idea to talk about Ron Paul
5 Stopped drinking alcohol under the assumption that I would drive the team around the rest of the night
6 Arrived at the final destination for the evening, El Bait Shop. Realized that I was sans identification.
7 Spent NYE with two security guards in the lobby of El Bait Shop. Discovered insight on security guards political affiliation, beliefs system, and why they hated their job.
8 Stood outside for a cab in -10 degree weather for 1 1/2 hours
9. Had a friendly game of lets race up the stairs with fellow cab patron to keep warm. Pretty and nice as she was, she was a sore looser.
10 Was punched in the ear by sore looser
11 Stayed at a Hampton Inn, awoke late, missed breakfast
