I've had soooo much fun recently. After being sick the week before last, I went out to 6th street Friday to hear Jenn's bf's band play. I met up with Jenn, Julia, and Ricky (not whitaker) and hung out at a bar that was playing old 90's pop music. So of course we all had to sing along extremely loudly. Then we went to see The Banner Year play (the bf's band). It was a lot of fun, but since i had been sick I got worn out really quickly and eventually had to leave early. I didn't get to drink b/c I was driving, but Jenn bought me somethign when I got there since I payed for parking. The rest of the weekend was slow, but that was good for me. I needed to catch up on some homework and rest.
Last week wasn't too bad, but it was pretty slow. One of my classes was cancelled all week b/c my prof was on the beaches of Rio de Janiero. I still had to be there at class time for a couple of quick group meetings. Then I skipped my 3 hr class Thursday b/c I didn't want to wait around for it.
Now Friday was fun. Sheri decided to get a group together to go to Dave & Buster's since her sister was coming into town. A few people bailed, but it ended up being me, Sheri, Erika, Jeff, and Adrian. Only Sheri and I are 21, so we let Jeff and Erika drink at my place before we left. Then I had to drive all the way to Riverside to pick up Sheri's friend Adrian, and let me tell you I was pissed. I always have to drive everywhere. I told Sheri on Thursday that I wanted to drink, so I said that I would drive us to D&B but that was it. Then Jeff could drive us back. It only takes like 5 min to get there, so that I didn't mind. Well the person that was supposed to drive Adrian bailed at the last minute. So of course who has to fucking make a 45 min drive all the way to Riverside with 2 drunks in the car. I ended up getting pissed off at Sheri and Jeff b/c they were making so much noise and I almost couldn't drive. Of course once they figured that out they immediately stopped and Jeff felt really bad. That of course made me feel bad b/c it was more that I was pissed at the situation than the actual people. Finally we pick up Adrian and drive 20 min back to D&B.
My first stop inside D&B was the bar. Got me a yummy drink then headed off to play some games. I ended up having 3 drinks the whole night, but only paying for 2 cuz Jeff bought me a drink. Milestone here. First time a guy's bought me a drink that wasn't to pay me back for parking...even though I still had to order it b/c of the whole minor issue. Another time we went to the bar this lady stopped Sheri and I to talk and said it was her husband's birthday then told him that he had to buy us drinks. It felt a bit awkward to me so we declined, but they were really nice and we chatted a bit. Now Sheri was supposed to be my drinking partner that night, but ended up only having 1 drink. Made me a little sad, but Jeff was drunk most of the time we were there, so at least I wasn't the only intoxicated one. The whole night it was mainly Jeff, Erika and I that hung out and Sheri and Adrian kept doing their own thing. Kind of nice though b/c Erika wasn't too happy with her sister, and neither was I really since the car trip. I got over it, but didn't mind not seeing her as much.
Afterwards, Jeff drove us back and had to leave b/c he did something stupid last weekend and got in trouble with his parents. And when they have just had to buy you a car, they can easily set a curfew and take it away if needed. So Sheri, Adrian, and I came back to my place to watch Talladega Nights. Jeff ended up calling me b/c he was sad to have left. So I went to my room to talk to him, Sheri and Adrian stayed for about an hour then she took him home. Of course I forgot to mention that my third drink took a long time to hit me. So I was really tipsy after we got back home. Once Sheri and Adrian left I made Jeff stay on the phone with me b/c I didn't want to be tipsy and alone. Finally fell asleep around 4am. Woke up at 8:30 with my boss calling me to tell me stuff she didn't get around to doing at my rink. I was going to go in early anyways.
So I get to work around 10 and try to fix stuff. The construction that's been going on filled the coaches' room with gas fumes so I couldn't really work in there and had to move everything into a different room before everyone got there. Ended up teaching 2 classes. Jeff got to work as I was getting off the ice and asked how I was feeling. By that point, not so good. I had lost my voice twice by then. Then I had to sit around for a class that started again yesterday that I forgot about until 3am, therefore I had no coach assigned to it, but hell I'll make a couple more bucks teaching it. Luckily no one showed up for it and I got to play with my coaching friend's puppy. So cute! Then I still had to stay and do all my evaluation papers b/c I knew I would forget about them after spring break. Went and hung out in skate rental with Jeff while I did those until he got on the ice. Stayed in the back room for another 30 min finishing them up. Went to say bye to Jeff who was on the ice and saw that Ben was out there. I'm standing at the door to wait for them to circle around when Ben suddenly does a U turn and comes flying towards the door and stops and sprays me all the way to my waist. The continues to kick snow on me. I refused to be a wimp and walk away, so I just let him do it. Now I'm cold and wet =(. Jeff came around and the 3 of us talked for a while. They wanted me to come skate, but I had been at the rink for 4 hours by this point, and was going back for the ice bats game that night. Once Ben realized he was bleeding he and I left Jeff all alone and made him sad. It was funny =D.
Last night Sheri, Erika, and I went to the bats game. Ben is the mascot so he got us free tickets. He left a note on my tickets that said "come back to the zam room to see all the cool people" meaning my co-workers and such. I said hi then went to sit up on the bleachers for the game. Sheri and Erika had never seen a live hockey game. It was funny cuz Sheri didn't realize how violent it was and freaked out the first couple minutes from the noise and the checking of people into the walls. We had lots of fun and Ben was really really funny. Then during one of the intermissions they had 2 peopl in those giant sumo wrestling suits tie their legs together and had another person in a human sized hamster ball. It was a race between the 3 legged sumo wrestler and the hamster ball. Of course Fang the mascot had to create obstacles for them like pulling them over and laying in front of the ball so that the guy had to go around. Got a couple of good pics I'll post on facebook later. Really fun night, but wish we had won. Although we did score 2 goals in the last 6 min of the game. Score was 3:5 Colorado. Then Sheri went and got her pic taken with Fang who couldn't actually talk to us.
Afterwards we went and got some icees and came back to watch RV. Jeff texted me to see what we were doing. So I called him back but he didn't answer. Later Sheri called him from my phone and his friend answered it. It surprised Sheri and I guess she got a little agressive sounding. She didn't mean to but she did. So this girl said Jeff would call us back. Now of course since it was my phone the girl that it was me being agressive and I think she was scared of me. So he called back and Sheri and answered and he wouldn't talk to her. He was totally freaked out that I was mad at him or something. So I explained what happened, but I don't think his friend was there anymore. Therefore someone out there thinks I'm a crazy bitch. Hopefully he'll fix that for me. Anyways, we watched the movie which was kinda long, but funny. Then everyone left and I went to sleep at 3am (really 2am). That is once I remembered daylight savings. Which I figured out after staring at all the clocks in my living room trying to figure out why they were off an hour. It had been a long night.
Too much fun for me this weekend. Ok not really, just the perfect amount of fun.
Yay Spring Break
