Again, I feel like shit. I want to rectify the situation. Oracles of etiquette, veteran bar workers, smart planeteers: How have you handled this situation?

Waitresses usually have to pay the tab from their earnings.

Go back and pay it, just tell them who your waitress was and that your sorry you got so drunk. They don't care....between last night and now, the debt probably hasn't effected her anyways.
