RACING THE SUN HOME

Friday night:
Damien's band, BARKORD played at North Beach & was absolutely fantastic, and I'm not just saying that because I love Damien so much, really, they're damn good. I got in a few dances with Kate, Jacob, Lilly, Eric, and Julian. I had never seen Julian dance, and I am pleased with the outcome. We were all starving by the time Barkord was done playing and we went to Denny's where Eric made random friends with the peeps one table over. We ended up at Edens till close, just like we had done Thursday night. (except Julian and I were not doing so well that night, so it kinda sucked.)

Saturday night:
My new manager Diana is saintly for having let me get out of work at a decent hour and I came home to change for a party that Julian's friend was having. I was not expecting anything spectacular given that it was a kegger, but boy was I bummed to find that it was worse than I expected. My only consolation was that I had Kate, Michelle, Eric, (Lilly later,) and my boyfriend there. We took it upon ourselves to change the music and Kate danced her heart away to TuPac! We decided to take off right after Lilly somehow Forrest Gumped her way through 2 tolls without ANY money and got there; we went to Edens till close...again. We saw many OG people there and it was actually a very enjoyable night. Of course, our fat asses had to stop at Denny's for food again because that's what normal people do at 4 a.m. right? We stayed till about 5 and apparently I fell asleep while waiting for the food- Julian's shoulder is beefy and makes for a spectacular make-shift pillow. His behavior has been fantastic lately, affectionate, attentive, and caring, just what I wanted; although the party sucked, I had a good time.

Easter was o.k. except for the part where I had to work. Of course I crashed soon after I got home and did not wake up for night 4 of dancing and drinking (although I did not really drink this weekend) at Bamboo Room. I slept until 11 this morning and I loved EVERY moment.

Lessons learned over the weekend:
1. It's ok to lose sleep because you partied too hard over your long weekend as long as you had a kick-ass time.
(make sure it's worth 3 hours of sleep bc u work at 10:30 the next morning.)
2. It's good to resolve problems with someone you care about.
3. It's good to surround yourself with people that like to dance.
4. It's good to get home unnoticed.
5. It's good to race the sun home and win.
6. Mix your separate groups of pals bc they'll prob like each other.
7. appetizer samplers at denny's suck at 4 a.m. but the buffalo chicken strips never do you wrong.
8. you will fall asleep on a shoulder at almost 5 am if someone is playing with your hair- no matter where you are.
9. When your parents ask what time you got in, simply reply "early." Technically, you're not lying.
10. Fun like that is sure to cure any frown, if at least for a little while (love ya, Sillian.)

QOTD
"So I'm covered in pancake grease and I have a finger condom...what's wrong with that?" -Eric (aka RICKY THE BARTENDER!) @ Denny's

"I will chase a cow down and bite him on the ass."
-Eric responding to a comment I made on how much he eats. If I cared for accuracy, I'd say he'd bite her on the ass, but I'm just the messenger, folks.

Me: Oh man, did you hear that Dave? It was sooo funny!
Tall Dave: Yeah, but you laugh at anything, though. You're just a big 'ol laugh whore.
**boy has me pegged, I am easily amused & laugh at alot of things, given that they are delivered properly.**
