If friendship was measured in alcohol...

Two nights in a row of firing it up with friends before I head north has this chick spent. Friday night out with Chris for what was intended to be an "early night" turned into a pitcher at High St. and two pints and a shot before last call at one of the campus hangouts. The later part of the night was spent watching frat boys strike out with sorority girls at the bar and talking about our similarities when it comes to interacting with the opposite sex. And then there was a dude that wandered through the room every so often with really light eyes, a curly mop of hair and a nose piercing (columella/septum) that had dark brown spikes coming out of the ends... he was creeping us out.

Last night was spent out with Becca and Heath, one of the guys from the movies the other week. Since hearing about my metaphorical slap in the face from J. last weekend, these kids decided I needed to get out and get my mind off of him. As it was supposed to be my last hurrah, what better way to start things off than at 6th St. Bar and Grill with tequila body shots. Whee-ha! After hanging there for a bit, we headed over to Diablo's to see if any of the regular kids were there (Heath spins there sometimes and knows EVERYBODY) and shake our groove thangs. I don't bring my groove thang out very often, but two shots of tequila, three buttery nipples and a glass of Lindemans Belgian Ale talked me into it. Gotta remember to find a place that has the Lindemans in Portland. Tasty stuff. Anyway, Becca and I danced for a bit and then Heath said we were going to an after hours party at Stylus Grooves, a record store/sound system/dj gear shop that belongs to a friend of his. The basement of the place is set up as a chill out room with couches and pillows and rope lights and the dj spinning down there was playing some kick ass jungle that set the mood perfectly. We were all fading after hanging out there for an hour or so and decided to call it a night around 3. Needless to say, I slept like a baby... Ooh, and plans are in the works for Halloween with those kids to do a Gilligan's Island theme... I get to be Mary Ann... yeah baby...
