Ah... Friday nights... 12 hours of mindless self indulgence, and not necessarily the
band. Friday nights were created for only one specific purpose: to have a Retarded Good Time (RGT).
Last Friday night was no exception to this rule, and was an RGT of the highest quality. I shall now give an approximate time line of the events, occurrences, and goings-on of the night.
9:30 PM - Made a stop at the local "Five and Dime" to purchase a bottle of
Robitussin Gel Capsules. When the cashier asked, "How are ya doin tonight?" I practically hacked up a lung and said, "Not very well." This made the cashier feel rather dumb. I had a good laugh about this later.
10:00 - I arrive at Matt #2's house. Brian is there.
10:20 - "Wild Hogs" comes on. We watch about 30 minutes and retire to Matt #2's bedroom.
10:50 - I impress Matt #2 with my ability to play "
Clint Eastwood" on his keyboard.
11:00 - 12:15 - Waiting on Matt #1 to arrive.
12:20 AM - I pull out my good friend Dex and consume 12 pills (I would have taken more, being a DXM veteran, but alas, we only had one bottle and Matt #1 wanted to try it. Plus he bought it).
12:30 - Matt #1 arrives (finally), and picks us up.
12:40 - Matt #1 doses, taking 10 (it was his first time).
1:00 - It starts to hit me (very hard)
1:15 - We arrive at Cassie's apartment. Tony, Alisha, Matt #3, Austen, Parker, Danielle, and Justin are there, also. Cassie is wearing short shorts; Danielle greets me by saying, "I am soooo drunk." Tonight might be a good night.
1:20 - 1:50 - I perform the usual tussin activities (jumping, dancing, shaking/rolling my head, running into things, etc...). Others smoke a bowl using Tony's patented G.I. Joe pipe. I have a splendid conversation with Cassie about 80's fantasy movies. We both agree that
Labyrinth is an amazing movie. I am also highly impressed (heh... get it?) with both Austen and Cassie's new tattoos.
2:00 - I ask Matt #1 what time it is (this comes into play later). Danielle has been sitting on my lap for a while. My hands have been busy (partially due to the Dex, but mainly because I'm a guy).
2:10 - Danielle begins to make out with Cassie while she is still sitting on my lap. Tonight is going to be a good night.
2:15 - 2:?? - Cassie sits on my lap. I rub my face on her back (I'm on tussin) and my hands feel her inner thighs (I'm a guy). I conclude that Cassie is a fine specimen of a female.
2:30 - I ask Matt #1 what time it is. He informs me that it is 2:30 and I am astonished. I seriously could have sworn that a week's worth of nights had passed. I ramble on about this for a couple of hours (minutes).
2:35 - 3:3? - Matt #1 does some crazy-ass shit (takes his shirt off and asks Austen to blow a hairdryer on his back. I encourage Austen to just go along with it. Austen, while hairdrying Matt #1: "I feel like such a queer right now." Also, Matt #1 mistakes an air vent for a locker, asking "How do you open this locker?" while rubbing his hands up and down on it. Matt #1 then proceeds to take a few of us into the closet where he starts having a light switch rave. None of us are impressed. Matt #1 stares into space. A lot). I guess it's because it was his first time robotripping, although I didn't act that weird my first time. Also, some sort of drama occurred involving Justin wanting to ride home on his motorcycle ( he was far from sober), but I was too tussed-out to really get involved.
3:40 - Some people disappear. I conclude that the apartment was one world, and the world outside the window was a completely different world. It made sense at the time (still kinda does now).
4:00 - People reappear.
4:10 - 4:30 - A lot of things happen, although they are very vague and hazy to me. People making out and talking and drinking and such.
4:40 - Matt #1 leaves to go home. Matt #2 and I assure Matt #1 that he doesn't need to give us a ride.
4:41 - Matt #2 and I regret having Matt #1 leave without us.
4:45 - 5:30 - A lot more things happen that are kind of not there. People ate, made out, drank, did the hibbity-jibbity, drank some more, and eventually the majority of the attendees turned in for the night (morning). The timeless argument of
Pirates vs. Ninjas took place during this time and I pretty much mopped the floor with my "
Sith Lords could kill them all" counterpoint.
5:45 - Matt #2 and I are the only ones awake. We go outside to the alley and sit on the couch, having a
pseudophilosophical discussion regarding the events of the night.
5:55 - Matt #2 and I are concerned as to how we are going to get home. Luckily, I have the idea to call my good friend Ro, and he, being miraculously awake at that hour, agrees to come pick us up. I am pretty much down by now.
6:00 - 6:15 - More pseudophilosophical discussion occurs. Tony wakes up and joins us.
6:20 - Ro arrives. We all talk for a while. Matt #2, still very sloshed (he had a late start) makes several attempts to seduce a sleeping/passed out Danielle. We all laugh at his failure several times.
6:40 - 10:00 - Plenty of things happened, but the gist of it is I finally got home and slept all day.
Now, there were a few other occurrences that I cannot for the life of me figure out where on the time line they happened, so I'm just going to list them individually here.
1.) Cassie "almost falls out the window" and I "save her life."
2.) A deal is made that if Matt #1 kisses Matt #2 on the cheek, Cassie and Danielle will make out for 2 minutes. The girls pretty much have clothes-on sex for 5 minutes. MmmHmm... (again, I'm a guy)
3.) I conclude that it'd be a good idea for me to wrestle a drunk Matt #2 while I'm still tripping. I end up getting kidney punched and falling down.
4.) A drunk Matt #2 concludes it'd be a good idea for Danielle to put out her cigarettes on his arm. Not to be outdone, Austen puts out two cigarettes on his tongue.
Here's Matt #2's testimonial for the night:
"Last night...
We fuckin raged!
I had alot [sic] to drink.
Alot [sic].
And recieved many battle scars.
Two cigarettes were put out upon my arm.
I fell down some stairs and cut open my hand.
then for some reason we drive to the skatepark where i bust my shin on the quarter pipe coping..
Also lots of females making out with each other and everyone around.
God truely invented alchohol as a social lubricant .
making mean [sic] brave.
and women loose.
since the dawn of time."
I know there's a lot of things I'm forgetting to put in there, but that pretty much covers the best parts. It was an exceptional RGT. I absolutely cannot wait until the next one.
Later.
