Those swingin' Swedes
Well, my Saturday night ended up being an interesting one. There was a pub crawl going on, hosted by this girl from that volleyball group, which I haven't even played in like a million years. I didn't think I would get to go, because it was all the way in Normal Heights and I'm way up in UTC and I didn't have a ride. Luckily Martin was nice enough to offer to give me a ride, without me even asking. And it was totally out of the way for him. He lives like a couple miles from where this was taking place, but he drove all the way up to La Jolla, just to give me a ride. What a nice fella! Those European guys are a lot more helpful I guess. I went to eat with him and a friend of his first, then went out and got our drink on.
It was a pretty funny experience and, to my surprise, there were a couple people there who I'd originally thought were stuck up, but who were actually very friendly to me that night. Oh the wonders of alcohol! It makes everyone your best friend. :P
I think the funniest part was all of the bizarre things I found out about Martin at the impromptu after-party. Turns out he's kind of a slut (lol), which is especially funny considering he doesn't look like the type who'd actually DO things like go to a 30 person orgy. Again, another case of judging a book by it's cover. I have a tiny incling that he may have made that one up. We kept teasing him about the stuff he was saying and would say things like, "Well, they are a lot more open about that kind of thing in Sweden."
Isn't Sweden where they make all of those weird pornos, like where people have sex out in the snow? Hmm, I should ask him that next time I see him.
I didn't even have to pay for a single drink the whole night. Martin, Gary and this guy Dev kept buying them for me. Martin's friend even bought me one. This guy Gary even paid for one to replace another one that I didn't like. Pretty sweet deal if you ask me. So nice that there still are some gentlemen left in the world.
I stayed up way too late that night and was sort of hung over today, but I think it all was worth it. Hopefully there is more fun in store for me in my future. And hopefully I won't have to keep making poor Martin give me rides to it all the time. :P
