Happy 2009, people!
I hope everyone had a safe, fun New Year's eve.
Mine was........interesting and I spent my 12:00 am hour slightly upset.
The plan for 2 weeks has been that my BFF and I were going to Hattiesburg. Well, the day before she bails on those plans, but was like "Go, I want you to have fun. I won't be mad." I decided not to go.
So then she and I decide to go to B'ham (a little closer than the 'Burg). Well, yesterday afternoon I get a txt and she bails on that too. BLAH! I decide to go to B'ham anyway b/c my very good friend was playing a show at a bar there. He's supposed to play first...early show, then back to Tuscaloosa. So I tell the BFF that this is my plan.
I get to the bar, I find out that the lineup has changed...he is not playing first! WTF? Oh well, it happens. ALSO, the LOVE OF MY LIFE! walks in. I didn't expect to see him there. I guess I should have realized he would be there since he is part of the band. I guess I just thought he was still on world tour as session player. Guess not! So at this point I realize I won't be back in Tuscaloosa early.
This entire time my BFF is txting telling me how very very upset she is gonna be if I am not back in time by midnight. I start feeling really guilty (I mean I did start 2008 at Egan's, might as well end it there).
So I leave. I drive 90 the entire way home to make it to Egan's by midnight. It was probably a really good thing that I did leave. Once I started talking to the LOVE OF MY LIFE! all those feelings came back, and I just remembered that he broke my heart in '08.
So........I make it to Egan's with 2 minutes til midnight. Everyone is pulling me aside, and saying hey and whatnot, and I am scrambling to find the BFF.
MIDNIGHT! Don't see BFF!
DAMN! I finally see here in the front of the bar.........I'm in the back. I have to fight the crowd to get to her. DAMN!
So I finally made it over to see her...we talked to a few and then she started ignoring me the entire night. WTF! I left B'ham........drove 90 the entire, just to be with her (Honestly I would have much rather stayed and listened to bands), and I get the cold shoulder?
I chat with some other friends for a while, and I turn around and homegirl is gone. Fucking Gone!
I'm really not one that ever has bad times. I always have fun. and Egan's has become my 2nd home and the patrons have become my family over the past year. I'm determined to not let BFF bad vibes ruin the rest of my night.
My friends and I totally made a big fun dance party. I danced and danced and drank and drank, and danced some more. My night ended up being a lot of fun. I'm really sad that my BFF didn't participate.......esp. after I went outta my way to be with her, but I ended up having fun and coming home happy and exhausted!
