"tell me, you're gonna be okay..."

after what seemed like several hours, oh wait it was, our evening finally got on its way. met up with B, missy and the boys at rockne's. the original one in the falls. kinda cool pub like vibe. not the cookie cutter vibe all the chain ones have going on. after purchasing fifty dollars worth of berries, don't ask, the lovely G met up with us. B was salty. said D just moved one day. he called to see if he wanted to go out and D told him he was in kentucky? hmm. i couldn't finish my second beer so i gave the half that was left to G. we headed back to B's to drop off a car and headed downtown. we parked and walked to the pub that i love. G was hungry. there was a random guy grilling on the sidewalk. she took it as a sign. we stopped and had a beer while she ate a burger. asked if we could go into the main bar to pee, since we were on their patio. they told us it would cost $3. to pee? they told us there was a band playing in the main room and that was the cover. what band? oval opus! score. looked like we had a little change of plans. called B to let him know we were going there instead. got close to the band that had slowly become one of my favorites over the past few months. they even played my favorite song. they played for like four hours. it was so good.

me: did he just whip out a harmonica?
G: yeah. why? what does that mean?
me: it means i want to blow him now.

after four or five beers and a shot i was toasted. i switched to water as G continued to get crazy. the band finished and walked into the crowd. i walked up to aaron and introduced myself. told him i loved their sound. told him how i randomly discovered them while trying to find some other song to download. and how i'd loved them ever since. talked about some of the bands they've been opening for. found out about some upcoming shows. i bought a couple eps. got an autograph. said goodbye and headed off to another bar to dance. G made a quick call to the boyfriend. filled him in on the conversation she had with a waitress at the bar who happened to be sleeping with her boyfriend. yeah, he's a winner. walked four blocks to michael's bar. the ten dollar cover made us turn around and walk four blocks back to the cheaper bar where we paid three dollars. G had some more beers. i stuck with my water. we danced. she was dancing like phoebe ran on friends. i was laughing my ass off. left posh at 2:30am and headed for my car. stopped and asked a guy where we could find some breakfast. hit a diner on the way home. had the best breakfast ever. G choked on a piece of bacon. we laughed a lot.

G: who doesn't chew their bacon before swallowing it?
me: (shrugs)
G: a person looking for some trouble, that's who.
me: you're insane.

drove back to B's so G could get her car. laughed as she peed in his bushes. headed home. what a great night. it's been a while since i had that much fun. got home and was in bed by 5am. got up at 9am to meet jules for brunch and a flick. two breakfasts within a twelve hour span. that's more than i have all year. french toast, yum. got the lowdown on what to expect saturday at the wedding. a piano player? no dj? sounds. like. fun. oh well. found out who would be at my table. and who was going to be there. sounds like a interestring crowd. saw the stepford wives. it was really good. very funny. far less creepy than the original one. headed home, and now my sister is back in town for a week. more bonding time with the good doctor.
