party - not so much

so thursday night was a little out of the ordinary. i don't get drunk, i don't ride all over raleigh on my bike, i don't puke on the side of the road and i don't shut down house parties. well, until thursday night that is. i felt unbelievably energetic thursday because a) it was a beautiful day b) i had an excess of sugar in my body c) i went to see 'monsters vs. aliens.

let me start from the beginning: thursday started like any other mundane day in raleigh until i realized i didn't have class friday and i could day drink. well i left my class (we met in the park downtown - pretty awesome of my teach.) and i road for a while, stopped got hired on the spot at busy bee as a waitress (i start in 3 weeks or so) then i road to blue martini had a look at our brand new menu - of course i tasted some of the food options. ben (bartender) made me, him and lindsey a shot of his martini (ritmo benito) - i took one sip and almost died (it's too strong and full of bourban for my taste!) after eating lunch (a ceasar salad and grilled cheese) i felt like a fatty-mc-fatster so i road my bike. i thought ester was working at helios so i went by to see - of course she was! cam-daddy talked me into drinking a $2.50 bottle of bad penny (i mean come on $2.50 bad penny? who could say no?) after i finished drinking my beer ester and i took a ride down to morning times to meet courtney. this is where the day turned to night and the night turned to crazytimes.

courtney, ester and i shared a piece of sugar-filled blackberry white chocolate cake (keep in mind i DO NOT eat sugar, especially not cake!) i was pretty hyped up on sugar when courtney and i decided to go to a movie. of course the only movie i wanted to see was a movie for 5-10 year olds - courtney and i decided it was a must. we got on our bikes (leaving ester because she was meeting some people that court and i don't really care for). we road to my car (at blue martini) and we decided to go in and drink a martini because we had 10 minutes to waste before we had to head to the movie.

after downing a 'panty dropper' and 'upside down cake' we headed off to monsters vs. aliens. we get to the movies convince the lady to let us in for free - well for the kids price. then we went to the snack bar and flirted with the 16 year olds working it - who were convinced that we were high on something - we ended up getting our popcorn for free.99.

the movie was ok. it had it's funny parts but there was defiantly some slow moving/boring parts. i actually found myself having trouble staying awake in some points.

after we left the movie we decided to go change because it was getting chilly and we wanted to ride bikes through the night. - i'll skip the changing and boring parts.

so we get downtown, park in the deck, get on our bikes and ride to tir-a-nog for local beer local band night. we run into megan carroll, so we recruit her for our adventure. we have a couple 20oz bad pennys then ride out to busy-bee (well the hive). nickshaw joins us - courtney and i have come to the conclusion that we shouldn't go out without nickshaw anymore because he's too much fun and without him we aren't nearly as retarded. after nickshaw met up with us megan dipped out (i think there may be drama there that i was unaware of - my bad megs).

we sit, sing/make up songs, find out the cute guy in my journalism class is gay - see jimmy's friend who's always so nice to me - i think matt or chris either way him and his gorgeous asian girlfriend make me sick, they're way too cute.

court, nickshaw and i decide we should make our way to dance it up at the jackpot! we hop on our bikes - stopping by the big easy first for open mic night - i'm so happy it was over - i didn't want to hear them sing anymore, my ears were beginning to bleed. we pick up john at the hive and recruit him to bike with us to jackpot!

the jackpot! was fun. we always bring the dance party. i think it's funny that the dj was playing some slow ass tunes and then the four of us started dancing and the dj got into it - we made a circle some guy pulled out some cardboard from god knows where and we had a dance off of sorts. i ran into drew ball who was highly intoxicated. i recruited him to go to the house party we were heading to but then retracked my invite because he couldn't walk straight.

we biked to the party - which was off kent (passed my house) got there and things were lame. stuff being lame does not stop us from having a blast though. courtney and i threw down on the dance floor - joseph (this guy from my class) was there he's a talented mc we talked about how class is stupid. then court and i went outside where court stood on a table and had a shouting match with this tiny man from new jersey.

this is when the blood of christ was introduced into the mixed - not a good choice at all. i wasn't as drunk as court or nick because i didn't have any of this death-juice. court and i decided to pretend i was from prague - it was going well until i forgot i wasn't suppose to speak english very well and said something in clear english. we had them boys going though.

anyway, we end up being the last three people at this party - well other than the people that live there. we leave get on our bikes and nick and i start down the street to my house. we look back and court has fallen onto the curb - bike on top of her and she can't get up. that was fall number 1 - 2 more to come.

nick gets her up makes sure she's ok - she is. we start off towards my house again. we cross western, past food lion, getting ready to turn onto my street (ligon) when i hear a huge crash. court has been taking out by the curb - fall number 2 - 1 more to come.

we get into my parking lot - convincing court she is not biking home or biking to her car - her and nick are going to crash on my couch. she tries to dismount off her bike as she lifts one foot up to swing it over her bike-frame she fulls - smashed right into my bushes (i should mention they are prickly bushes). nickshaw and i finally get her inside - i bandage her wounds and put on a movie for them because they tell me they're too drunk to fall asleep (it's 4am).

oh about the puke on the side of the road - as we were leaving the house party some girl was right beside where our bikes were locked up puking. i'm the type of person who if i smell puke, see puke i follow suit. i can't help it i can't deal with puke. i hate puke.

i go upstairs, pass out.

we wake up friday - nick and court feeling like shit - and bike downtown to get breakfast at morning times and to get our cars. i make it to my patents house by 2pm!

i'll stick to my 'once in a blue moon beer/martini/glass of wine' from now on, thank you. -
