Here is the much belated story of my 21st:
I got off work at 5 and bought a six pack of Deschutes pale/porter to enjoy my new freedoms. unfortunatly the checker i went to was a friend so i didnt get carded. I went home and surfed the internet and drank two of the beers. At that time Aspen (brother in law) came by to pick up his mail. Upon hearing about my
birthday he offered to take me out for a couple of drinks. Of course I accepted and we went to this martini bar called Poppes in the Best Western. Each drink you order comes with the shaker and that contains enough alcohol to fill the glass 4 times. I had a Kamakaze Twist all to myself. Apsen, Julia, and I all split some chocolatey thing. After that Apsen drove me home. That was sometime around 7ish. At 9:45 I took the bus to fairhaven to meet up with Garrett and Zach from work to start the offical 21 run. I met up with the guys and we ordered 2 pitchers of beer, three shots of JD, and I got a free B^e. The B^e was disgusting, it tasted like sweettarts mixed with beer, yuck! I pissed a couple of times, nearly puked each time then we headed off to the Rogue. I remember getting into Zach's car but I dont remember the trip. I remember getting out and going into the Rogue. At the rogue we got more beer, jager bombs, and I got a free four horseman. I dont know what was in the four horsemen and I dont remember drinking it. I heard that it was 151, goldschlager, jager, plus something else. I remember chilling at the Rogue for a while. After that I blacked out, the next bit is what I was told by the guys the next day. We left the rogue and went to the Up and Up. It was rellly slow otherwise I wonldn't have gotten in `cause I was too drunk. We ordered beer, of which I spilled a lot. I also Tried to play pool but was unsuccesful. The Up gave me a free mini champagne bottle which I ineptly threw & broke against the outside wall as we were leaving. Then we went across the street to Pel Meni (the dumpling place). I flopped around and pretended to sleep. I also lost my phone. The guys tried to take me home but instead of giving directions all I said was "nuuumberrr 3eeeee." That went on for a bit then they took me back to their place (room mates) and I crashed on the couch. Before falling alseep I managed to puke on my self and my dry clean only nice ass wool coat.
The next day was the hangover from hell. I woke at 10:30 on Garrett's couch didn't know how I got there, and had to be to work in an hour and a half. I left and caught a bus downtown. Remember I still was wearing the puke jacket. I had to walk home from the bus station which was agony. Then I cleaned up tried to drink something and took a bus to work. Handling all the raw meat at work was hell as well. Everything made me want to puke and three times I did. For lunch I ended up eating crackers and sprite. I took breaks as soon and as often as possible. I didn't become hang over free untill early evening (before I got off work at 9).
Thankfully I will never drink that much again.
And now for something completely different.
This is the door complete with touchlessless card scanner and beeping code entry.
Hallway/machine shop/electronics storage
My work station! The computer is a pos but the electronics are cool. The box w/ handle on the stool is a sine wave generator. The barely visible light bluegreen boxes on the bottom of the stack next to the computer are stimulators. Basically they emit pulses at a desired frequency, duration, and voltage. They were originally intended for medical use in operating rooms. Above those is an amplifier, an oscilloscope, and another (crappier) amplifier. The computers have yellow stickies denoting weather I have canibalized all the ram or not.
These are empty monkey cages. WWU used to have monkeys but activists broke in and stole them all. Now the college wont fund research on anything with a back bone so animals with high upkeep like monkeys or rabbits are out of reach unless you had a kick ass grant, which nobody does. The big black tubs are for the crayfish I'm working on. Right now there we don't have any because I'm just working on a computer program.
It's the autoclave!!!
Medical supplies and a stereotatic atlas of the Macaque (monkey) brain.
This is the creepy operating table.
I don't know what this is.
