"here in the dark, in these final hours, i will lay down my heart"--bonnie raitt

hey hey,
so i guess you're wondering about this weekend...yeah, so am i...well let's see how much i can divulge without making myself seem extremely ridiculous.

on friday, i went to meet up with paul, scott, melena, jon and paul's friend nikhil at baby a's.

me and scottie "the hottie"

paul, me and nikhil

jon & melena

shawna had told me about the purple margaritas (limit 2) and i thought it would be a good idea to try them...yes. 2. i think i was drunk by 8? yeah, it was great. luckily shawna had called and asked me if i wanted to go out so i wouldn't have to drive very far. but after dunking my elbow in the sour cream, melena and jon offered to drive me to her apt. (can i also just thank my friends for caring about me? shawna offered to come pick me up, as well as chris. heart y'all!) so i went up to shawna's and then we went over to sharla where we met up with sharla, vincent and eric. after a taxi debacle, shawna and i took the first cab downtown and made friends with our cab driver, seth, who gave us his number to call him for a cab or just to talk, bless his heart. so we started off at gingerman. i was told by l*bo if i saw her gingerman boyfriend to say hi, i swore i saw him but when i went to find him again, he had disappeared, oh well. we decided to go to fado...on the way out, we somehow ran into vincent on his phone...and he apparently really liked my jeans.

so shawna and i went over to fado and had "patron shots all around" to celebrate my bonus! and then got drinks. ce and gary met us there for a little bit before i went a little crazy.

**blogger stopped posting pictures**

i met a boy named jared, he bought me a drink, i guess you could say we got to know each other a little bit before he got really dramatic and i started crying, it. was. awesome. in the meantime, chris was calling me and texting to find out where i was. finally, i stormed out of fado but not before calling chris to come get me...which he did and i found it to be really heroic, because from what i remember or thought happened, he kind of told the guy jared off, and then we had a little dtr in the middle of the walkway in front of fado. when i say "little" i mean, me being ridiculous and him being really patient, of course. ask for more details if you wish. so after hugging all of my saudi boys downtown, shawna and i started walking back to her apt and ran into some very lost, drunk guy, which would later be the worst decision we made all night, to give him a ride home. shawna drove, not me, thank goodness. apparently he had been convicted of assault 7 times, i vaguely remember telling shawna "omg, drop him off right now" but i think his apt was like 1 more min away. he was weird. which just goes to show you, no matter how attractive and put together someone may look, they are crazy.

i apologize to anyone i drunk dialed at either 9pm or 3.30am. oops :)

so saturday, i felt awful and luckily i didn't have to leave shawna's til almost noon, but i also spent over an hour in traffic on 183, it. was. awesome. also, my phone was throwing a fit in my house and wouldn't work. so i ended up getting in my car after realizing this and driving to liberty hill (which sounds far, really it's barely 10 mins away) just to check my voicemail and return calls. and then. when i got home. it worked. i hate sprint.

so shea got to my house around 4.45 and we got ready and drove to her friend's wedding, it was really small and sweet, they had good food, good music (to slow dance too). shea and i scared off some boys by telling them how we did (or didn't) know the bride, boo us. and left around 9? then we just came home and watched some SaTC and went to sleep early.

on sunday, we met ce and gary at casa chapala for lunch and then i went to my parents' house for awhile, but not before seeing a weird car with a random family in my driveway, turns out they thought my parents' house was for sale...turns out, they can't read street signs, awesome. so i sent them away. i spent some time with my dad and then went home and went to the grocery store. so much for low carb, i gained like 2lbs. i never want to eat again, boo. then just home, and tried to watch kramer vs. kramer, my most recent netflix choice...boo. i also got my new loan booklet, apparently my monthly payment increased, which sucks, i'm going to have to call about that i think. i was on some weird payment plan i guess. i didn't sleep very well last night, i kept waking up and i was having weird dreams. boo.

so chris called me on his way to the aiport on saturday, as well as when he was boarding the plane to paris. he texted me last night and said he was in paris and walking under the eiffel tower, and then i said, i was jealous.....and i might miss him a little bit. *blush*, but then he said he missed me too. heart. gawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwd, i don't know what's going on. i think i do like him, maybe just a little, he is just SUCH a nice guy. but he's leaving in a month :( to far away lands forever and ever. and then wants to take me to dubai. haha. just kidding! booooo, i don't know what to do. i don't want to get too attached b/c i'll be uber-sad when he DOES leave. le sigh. don't worry i'll keep this updated about it. haha

have a good monday. peace.
