Friday night I ran into the boy. It was nice. He got my voicemails from the night before, one of them which I specifically left to be cute and it sounds like he took it that way so that's a plus. Anyway, he walked me to my car where we chatted about tailgate. That was about it, nothing to big, but anything gives me the butterflies :) Then I went to Hoolihans to meet up with Meg, Mike, Maureen, Matt, & Katie for half of drinks and appetizers. I had a Georgia Peach - anyone every had one of those? It was pretty yummy. I got home early and went to bed which was good, I had to work at 7 yesterday.
While at work the boy called to see which desk I was at and said he'd come visit. Which he did! :) He told me where he was headed to tailgate and told me to call when I got off. I got done with work at 10 AM and immediately proceeded to my car to grab my beer and head to the courts to tailgate. I ended up having to wait for Meg for like 20 minutes in the parking lot, but when she finally showed we attempted to go find him. That idea did not have a long life. It was just way too hard. I did randomly run into Elizabeth, Erin, Scott, Fred, and Kevin so that was fun. Then we just headed to see my Papa, who has a killer tailgating spot this year. It's on the East side of the lot directly south of the stadium - like 12 spots from the gates. Kyle was there as I expected him to be, his grandpa has always been at the tailgates. Last time I saw him was in May at Ben's graduation party. He turns 21 next week and that'll be crazy! As we were cleaning up the tailgate Kevin and his friend Mike walked by on their way to stand in line so they grabbed some food. My dad loves Kevin. :) Meg and I started to leave at this point - I had shit to do and she was gonna go home to watch the game with Mike, but we ran into some of her friends and they were going to the bar so we tagged along. We watched the first quarter at their apartment but then we headed to Crunchy's (they live seriously a 5 minute walk behind it). We got food and a bucket of beer which still makes me sick to think about how much beer was in that bucket. About 2 hours later 4 of us had finished the bucket and I was completely hammered. Mike was going to drive me to my car, but then I wanted to leave so I just walked back. While I was at Crunchy's Diane called me to give me an update about the happenings at work - note to self: don't answer your phone when you're not sure who it is and you're wasted - it might end up being your boss (my caller id just showed incoming call - i hate it when it does that) Anyway, definitely pretended to be sober while I chatted with her, walked back to Wilson wasted, pretended to be sober while I interacted with some DR's, and then went home and passed the fuck out. I woke up at about 7ish and then hopped in the shower. At like 8 I picked up Katie, ran some errands, got food, and then went back to my apartment to finish getting ready. At like 10 we headed back into town to hit the bars and then meet up with Kevin (it was his gf Holly's 21st at midnight). We went to the Post first - absolutely no line - and ended up shooting pool with some guys (a few of them happened to be VERY good looking :)) randomly enough I ended up knowing one of them from somewhere else when we got to talking. We were there about an hour and it took me that long just to have a smirnoff ice - my tummy was not happy I was drinking again. At 1130 we went to P.T.'s, where I'd never been before, to wait for Kevin and his crew. Once again, 5 minutes in the line tops. I don't know if it was because of Labor Day weekend or what, but it was nice. While at P.T.'s I ran into Becca! I was so excited to see her, I tried to get with her all summer, but it didn't work out. Last time I saw her was .... damn, I can't even remember. We left there at about 1 and I was in bed by 2 - I once again, had to work at 7. This being on duty thing isn't that bad - I just wish that I could stay out later, but whatever - it's not exactly an every week thing :) P.S. I did talk to the boy a few times while I was at the bar - he was on his way home for the rest of the weekend.
So, here I sit, again at work, drinking a Coke Zero and eating a muffin and pondering what to do with my day. I have an appointment at 3. I could go home and sleep and then have my day start with that. Or stay up get lots of stuff done, go to the appointment and then take a nap. Hmmmmm. Choices, choices. I still have an hour and a half to decide (I can't believe this shift is half over!) Anyway, game plan for tonight is to go out with Chris for Mat's birthday. We'll see if it happens, I may just go to see Chris and then go home early.... My body hates me right now. :( But it's been worth it :)
cheers.
