SGATLiens 2005 Holiday Party
God, life seems to be moving by so quickly this week. Its already Wednesday and I still havent finished writing about my weekend. Shame on me.
holierthancow came by Saturday afternoon to hang out and get the rest of the stuff hed left in our closet from when he was staying with us. Before we got to the moving stuff, though, we opted to grab tacos and beer at Elmyr. Tacos and beer at Elmyr is one of my top ten favorite things about existing and holierthancow is the best amigo to have on the other side of the pitcher so that put me into a real good mood despite how stressed I was about quitting my job. Maybe too good a mood, though, as we went through six pitchers and started on a seventh between the two of us before we realized wed been there for hours and if we drank anymore wed have trouble walking home.
Once home, I began getting ready to go to the SGATLiens holiday party then took a nap to sober up a bit. holierthancow was going to come but after puking he understandably didnt feel up to it. wyspurr and katfireblade went, though, as Ocean and Stitch watched the kids for us. BigBlack81 also joined the party later after he got off work.
The party wasnt great, aside from the fact that Im always pleased to see the SGATLiens getting together in large numbers, but it was pretty good. On a five star scale I give it three and a half stars. On the good side, most of my favorite people were there. The DJ was good enough that even I got out and danced a few times. There were Jello shots. There wasnt any drama that I entered into my awareness. Things stayed pretty lively and high-spirited well into the wee hours.
On the not so good side, a handful of my favorite people were not there. The food spread was kind of weak and heavy on sweet stuff compared to the awesomeness of last years holiday party. There was a shortage of mixers.
After wyspurr and katfireblade left I got kind of morose. I dont know how I can be in a crowd of people I know and like but still feel out of place. That makes both times I drank this past weekend culminating in depressive anxiety attacks. That can only mean one thing. Ive got a lot of shit bothering me that I havent been dealing with. Unfortunately when I think of the list of things I have to be bothered about I cant keep count. Quite frankly Im terribly stressed the fuck out and I have plenty of good reasons to be.
Around five in the morning, I left with BigBlack81 and his co-worker Jeff that he brought to the party. We ended up at the Majestic and put some food on our stomachs. That was tasty. Then Jeff dropped BigBlack81 and I off at our apartment and I crashed like an airplane with no fuel.
