Yeppers. I got kinda drunk last night, and did a very genius thing. I flirted with a single guy at a bar, while I got tipsier, due to his friend buying me another drink, and got his phone number. Uh huh. I got a phone number at a bar. I gave him mine as well.
So, I was sort of not given a choice about going out last night. That's another story in itself. Anyways, I went downtown to O'Donovan's with Corinne, Ed, Mike, and Andy. We all ordered a drink, and I got a Strongbow. Yummy cider, but can pack quite a punch, as it's British. I also drank it much faster than I normally do, because I was thirsty. (Why I thought alcohol would help with that, not really sure...) So, I got tipsy faster than usual. We were talking about something, and I realized that this was the first time I'd been to a bar in the Cities without Bryce. I was kinda thinking, 'Wow... Freedom?' I said that I should hit on somebody, or something. Andy took me rather literally, and asked the BACHELOR party at the table next to us if they had any single guys for me to hit on. Yeah, he actually asked them. They sent one guy, but he was rather plastered already, and wasn't really coherent. Then another guy, Joey, cut in, talked to me a bit, introduced me to his friend Nick, and he decided that I was a black and tan kinda girl. Nick guessed, correctly, that I preferred cider. However, Joey went and bought me a black and tan anyway, which I then proceeded to drink half of it, very slowly, though. And we all know that I metabolize alcohol agonizingly slow, so I was still getting drunk from the cider at that point. Anyways, so I'm flirting with Nick, because Joey either lost interest in me, or had some sort of ADD and found the alcohol they were forcing down the groom-to-be's throat more exciting. I'm guessing the alcohol, cuz he kept coming back to chat with us now and then. But yeah, so I can tell that Nick is slightly attracted to me, based on the smiles and the touching he did, and I thought that this was kinda neat. I found out quite a bit about him, and him about me, and it was going great. Then I got pulled into the next room and told to dance with the groom-to-be, so they could send pictures of it to the bride-to-be, who is apparently insanely jealous. So, then I ended up dancing with Nick, though I had brought Corinne with me, so she was dancing with him too. I left to go to the bathroom, and when we came back, the bachelor party was getting ready to leave, so he asked for my number. I punching it into his phone, and he called me, so I could have his. A little while later, I ran into the first guy the bachelor party had sent my way. His name was Jaron, and he was lost, since he didn't know where the next bar was. I tried to give him directions, but I didn't know where it was either. Then we went outside, and there was Nick and the bachelor party. They hadn't left yet, since they were still rounding up some of the guys. I told him we found one inside, and I brought him back in to find Jaron. Then I said good-bye, and gave him a hug, and he said he'd call me in the next couple of days. I was like, 'Okay. He's going to Iraq in three weeks for 6 to 9 months. He probably won't remember me when he gets back, so no harm with this.' I wake up this morning, and he had sent me at text at 2 asking if I wanted to babysit the bachelor party. Then he actually CALLED me this afternoon! I seriously wasn't expecting him to call me. It was kinda weird, but I felt rather flattered as well.
Gah! I haven't told Bryce yet! :-/...
