Fabulous Friday

thepnutgalleryThey always dangle that damn carrot in front of us at work on Fridays - "Finish all your work, and we can get out early!". I swear to god this actually causes my co-workers to slow down, chat more at each other's desks, and take longer lunches. Not all of them, of course, but a lot of them. Managed to get out a half-hour early anyway - started laundry, chatted with some boys on A4A, ran (literally) to Henry's for non-HFCS stuffing. In line there, the little old Asian lady didn't have enough for her food, so I gave her my last dollar. 'Tis the season, or something.
Got home, finished laundry, ate more birthday cake. I made the thing vegan for the principle - I've decided I don't support non-vegan industries. I guess I leveled up? The other upside of this is that I get to partake. :-D Roommate Anthony got home strangely early, and then Ken came home. He had mentioned that he wouldn't want to go to the gym, which was part of the reason I ran to Henry's and back, so we snuggled instead. Went over to El Zarape for dinner, but I wasn't really hungry. Also stopped in at Bourbon, but didn't see Kenny or Elizabeth, both of whom were supposed to meet us there. Went back home for a moment, then headed out to pick up Leo! His flight was delayed, and then his luggage was delayed. Fortunately, we knew about the flight, so only had to make about 6 laps of the pick-up area. It was kind of funny to watch it progress - when we got there, the traffic was fairly normal. By the time we were leaving it was so unspeakably backed up - if we hadn't gotten him on the 6th time, the 7th would have been at least another hour before we could even get over there.
Went straight from there to Leo's sister's X-Mas party, where I met a lovely girl named Titi, and a lovely, much younger girl by the name of Celeste. It was good times, and we left there much later than expected. Headed over to Rich's, where we met up with Dallas and Kimberly S. was spinning - I <3 her a lot. She played a mix of "Hung Up" that rocked my socks. Except for one small snafu when the music stopped at the very beginning, she kept it pumped all night long. I didn't have enough water, so I kind of battled a headache all night. Also didn't help that I started with margaritas at Leo's sister's, moved to Jack for my first drink at Rich's, and vodka for my second. Ken was pretty damn drunk - I did mention we were with Leo, right? He pulled me aside just before we left, because he thought I was following him. I kind of was, but only in the sense that I had to pee, there's only one bathroom, and he got there first. Also had his drunk talk with me outside of our apartment. He's apparently famous for his "No, you don't understand" speeches when he's drunk. All in all, a very good Friday.
