You know what I forgot to do?
Dance like no one's watching.
It's been an especially shitty week, so I was looking forward to seeing Rachel, whom I hadn't seen since her wedding back in December, and hadn't actually hung out with in even longer. It was good to hear her sing (everyone agrees but no one has the heart to tell her that she is so much better solo than with her band) and to talk to her, and she left me a really nice note on facebook this morning.
The band that came on after her were doing c&w covers of punk songs, which was fairly amusing, so we were hanging out for a bit when I got a text from Anna wanting to know if we'd like to go to Neo. Now the only answer to that question from that girl is "FUCK YES" , especially since I hadn't seen her in even longer than Rachel. So we bid goodnight to Rachel and went to collect Anna.
Turns out Anna's been having relationship problems and just needed to get out of her place and away from her underage hippie boyfriend before she threw him off her balcony. Hey whatever, like we need an excuse to go dance to 80's synth-pop and make fun of other people's outfits*. We get inside, procure some beverages and find a spot by the dancefloor. Then the DJ plays Sex Dwarf and Anna drags us onto the dancefloor and I realize that it's been much much too long since I've been willing to make an ass of myself at the club. We danced for one more song which I ought to know but can't remember at the moment and oops there goes my goth cred, bye goth cred, and then some lame crap came on so we went back to our table. This guys comes up and asks if he can leave his beer on our table, "make sure nobody puts any rufies in it, and if they do make sure they're cute, I like boys by the way, just so we're clear." So Anna starts chatting him up, his name is Darren and he admits that even thought he's gay he would fuck Madonna if given the opportunity, to which Anna challenges him to an arm-wrestle over dibs on who gets to fuck Madonna first.
If you don't understand by this point why Anna is awesome then I can't help you. We spend the next couple of hours and being goofy and catty and like old times, but unfortunately some people have to work in the morning so we packed it in, dropped Anna off and asked her nicely not to commit any manslaughter, hit up Lazo's for some tacos, then some stuff happened and we fell asleep around 4am. Best night I've had in a while.

* We do this with the full knowledge that we are complete dorks and we don't care. I kept my red Army ushanka hat on the entire time we were inside, and Anna was wearing that D.A.R.E. t-shirt she's had since she was in high school. Seriously I don't know how that thing is still in one piece love you Anna!
