.oh.what.a.night.

where do i begin? it was a damn good night. not just because i saw a ton of people i haven't seen in years, but because i was drunk ass while doing it. no, i didn't need to be drunk while seeing these people, but you know...when you're tipsy, you're usually more gregarious than any other usual night. we all had a little bit too much to drink, which made my drinking a lot less noticeable. we started out the night with dinner and drinks at the condo. it was michelle, jeff, abby, richie, arch, and me. to my relief, they liked the food. they actually said it was really good. yay for me! =) i think i'm learning more and more how to cook better. then kathy came over, and we all laughed at how michelle couldn't get enough of jeff's cd burner. those things are a wonder, aren't they? then norway and his friend ken came over and that's when the drinking turned hard core. we knew we had to leave soon, so we wanted to get all liquored up before getting to the bar so we didn't have to spend much on drinks while we were there...remind anyone of college?? uh, yeah. that's ok...don't be a hater, just because we're smart enough to drink a lot and not pay an arm and a leg for it. you know you would too.

so lets see...i can't recall exactly how many people i saw last night, but let's just leave the count at about...20? 20 people who i haven't seen in at least a year? that sounds about right. so it was nice to catch up with everyone. i think we all need one night a year to see those perimeter friends...good times, i say...good times...

and if that weren't enough to warrant any fun-having, our night was even more enlightened when archie started sitting on this bench with his head in his hands...haha. mister bully himself had gotten himself into a real pickle now. people started taunting him, and i went over and sat next to him, asking him if he was ok. of course he refused my help...he finally got up and walked real fast to the bathroom. i asked jeff to get archie a glass of water...jeff found his way to the bar, got the water and slipped and slid his way into the bathroom. haha. classic. by that time, archie was bent over the sink in the bathroom..then he moved over to a stall and continued regurgitating there. haha. he finally came out and all was right again...he came back to the bench and plopped himself down. needless to say, we left soon afterwards. sorry yall missed it.

good times, good times. and it wasn't just archie who had the fun. the bday boy did too. here's some pictures just to show you how much fun he had...the first 3 pictures, you need to click on them in a row...all these pictures can be thought of collectively as 'bernard's cameos'...it gives you a good idea of how the night progressed for b...
