Drywall taping repair / How I became single

OK, so I'm in the middle of taping the drywall in my basement. Walls are
done with 1st coat and ceiling was next. I was out last night with a group
of friends (the fellas) at a long planned Christmas break get-together.
There were friends, good friends, that I haven't seen in over a year.
I got in late last night and this morning, when I asked my wife what she
did last evening, said, "I started taping the ceiling..." I turned white.
Now, hard as rock, is tape with bubbles under it, tape that goes from
having a half inch of mud under it to sections that have no mud under them
at all.
ARRGHGGHGHGHHHHH!
sigh
What is the easiest/best way to recover from a very bad initial taping job?
Married for now,
a
water. a spray bottle should soften it enough to peel it right off. a
sponge to remove most of the residue and smooth what's left.
