Halloween!
* Incidentally, that flask was my bridesmaid gift from my sister. It just so happened to match my costume.
I know it's not officially the big H yet, but the festivities have begun. Last night an ex-coworker had a party. "Come in costume or don't come at all" he said. Well apparently nobody else got the memo. Sure there were decorations & stuff, but *nobody* else was in costume. I had my flask full o' rum, but wanted something to mix it with. When I asked the host (who wasn't in costume either) he said "alcohol's at the party store down the street. I can't buy everyone's drinks for them." I assured him I just wanted some soda or juice or something, and he pointed me in the way of the store again. This was kind of a d-bag maneuver, especially since his last party had at least a keg.
So we decided to go to the store, since if we were gonna stick around a little while at a lame party, we might as well have some liquid encouragement. When we got to the car, Jhay asked if I really wanted to come back. I said no, and we were on our way. A friend lives not too far from where we were, so we headed in that direction. Turning on to his street, we saw a group of costumed marauders heading into a bar. "That's where we're headed!" So we picked up our buddy and walked across the street to the bar.
Turns out the costumed group was part of a pub crawl, which was now at their second stop. It was $10 to join, but you still had to buy your own drinks. Paying the fee just allowed you to enter their contests & play the games and whatnot. So we enjoyed a few drinks, and when the group moved on, we followed. We had fun times & made a few new friends. One guy even said (unprovoked) that I should be a Suicide Girl. And I forgot to mention that at the wedding 2 separate people said the same thing to me! If even non-members are thinking I'm an SG, I definitely need to put out the effort to become official.
After pub crawling, we met up with RahRah and ate cheese fries and then went home to bed.
But anyway, that was a fun night, even though it didn't start out so.
