Thursday Dump Incomplete Due To Internet Fail
Seeing as how I am limiting my going out to Thursdays from now on, I suppose I shall have to continue to have eventful Thursdays... Unfortunately, Brandon and I have both figured out that Thursday at Jokers is our weekly meeting.
So, I get there about 1140, and chat with the watery guy who's wife just left him. We crawl through the line-- the place is absolutely jam-packed. Upon entering, I do the sweep: I walk slowly through the entrance side of the bar, duck outside, enter the dance area, do that loop to hit the bathrooms and drinking fountain. In this area, I see Alex (aka Mr. Jin, as Brandon is always saying) and promise him a dance. I think I may have seen Estoban, but I was on a mission. I walked out the other side of the dance area to check the pool tables and other side of the bar- and there is Jose from work! Aha! I thought I saw him on the way in!
So I give him a squeeze hug, as we only met two days ago, I mean... Anyhow, he says he just closed up at work and headed over, I laugh and say I feel bad for sitting at home for two hours. Then, over his shoulder, I see Brandon running his tongue ring along his lip and grinning at me, and he starts throwing in leering with his whole body when he sees I'm looking. Like a damn magnet, I find myself saying, "Uh-huh, hey, I gotta go talk to this kid." Also, a damn huge smile started parading across my face. Ick.
So, Not entirely sure on the details, but suddenly I am next to him, demanding, "So who was that text supposed to be for?"
"For you," he insists, all hurt. "The mascot one?"
"No," I shout, "the one about sleeping pills being sexy!"
"What?" He yells, and bends down so I can proceed to scream in his ear. Come to think of it, It was not actually that loud at the bar... Anyhow, I repeat myself, and he stands up and says, looking hurt again, "That was a joke. I thought it was hilarious..." Then he introduces me to the girl across the way, April, and tells me that future ex gf has failed and he is working on replacing her. I point out that I must still not be an option, and he played the thoughtful pose. *Shakes head at obvious playerness*
Granted, he did seem very very excited to see me, and continued to introduce me to girls throughout the night rather tha usual not introducing me to anyone. I noticed he avoids introducing me to other guys, though... Interesting.
Anyhow, I of course go out and dance. Dance dance dance, yay, it is packed and sweaty. I run into Jessica and she hugs me and bobs up and down. She's so dang cute :)
I wander out into the bar again to check who has showed up since the last round. I see Brandon, and ask him if he is actually planning to dance this week. He insists that, Of Course He Is!!!
I dance with Alex, and then ask if he wants to go take a breather outside.

Alex said, Sure, then proceeded to stop to talk to someone and forget about me. Thanks. Psh.
I am leaning against the wall, and I notice someone moving a lot across the way. Turns out to be Brandon telling a story rather emphatically. Some guy catches my eye as he is walking inside and tells me to come find him and dance with him later. I smile and say sure, avoid looking at Brandon who has seen me and it bobbing about even more. I swear, it is a miracle he staid in the chair.
I go back inside to dance, and probably got molested or something. Anyhow, ended up going out to my car to get my phone. On the way out the door, I see Brandon jogging around the corner. I ask him where he is going, and he proceeds to mack on my neck. I shove him off and tell him to walk me to my car. I ask about the failed ex-gf, and he said she refused to be around him when he was rolling. I expressed my hesitant displeasure at this criteria, but am not too annoyed. She's out of the way now, anyhow.
I tell him to come dance with me later, and he says ok and heads outside. Again. To bob about on a chair presumably.

I go back to dance, and see Marcus. We hug, and dance a bit before the song changes and he wanders off. I see Brandon making his way towards the dance floor, as that awful song, Daddy's Home, starts. I laugh and wave, and he beckons me over to him. I skip over and throw my arms around his neck... ok, maybe a bit exuberantly... but, anyhow, we just kinda... started dancing... off to the side of the dance floor, where we were basically putting on a show.
Later, Marcus says he was standing right behind me when I skipped up to Brandon... Ooops...
Towards the end of the night, I went outside to find Brandon and see if he needed a ride home. He was talking to these two er... large women. I waited for a pause and asked if he was planning to drive home. He said, No he had been invited to an after-party at Nick's house. I looked concerned, and asked if he wanted a ride. He grabbed my hand and introduced me to the girls as his friend, Brittany, then we excused ourselves. We went inside to the lobby, and he somehow got on the subject of pills, and how one day I was going to take some, and would be that much closer to being his girl. I told him he must be far too drunk to drive, he pulled me in and tried to kiss me on the forehead. Having just seen Sophon hanging out at a table, I ducked out of the way. Brandon declared he had to go pee and skipped off to the restrooms.
I went back to dance some more, and the back outside just before close. Brandon of course was there, and I asked him if he was sure he didn't want a ride. He claimed he wasn't that drunk, and then walked around me in a circle while trailing his hands through my hair... And then suddenly acted very sober, and told me not to worry and he would be fine, really.
So I left and texted him a bit later to be safe so I didn't have to worry.
