I'm just going to be echoing the sentiments of the others here, but it bears repeating: there may not be anything you can do to fix the behavior you're feeling guilty about right now, but it's important that you take something away from it. Drinking responsibly is pretty damned important -- besides acting like a boor and ruining everyone else's good time, an irresponsible drunk can physically harm themselves or others. We make lots of jokes about over-drinking, making fools of ourselves, and being drunkards, but it's really just that -- joking.

It's possible to drink and do silly things, just as it's possible to be sober and do silly things. If you're finding that you're doing the kinds of silly things when drunk that you wouldn't do sober, I would think that's a big red flag that it's time to consider a change in your drinking habits.
