A Drunken Night

Since both my best friend and I are now unemployed we are watching our spending very closely. We decided to drink as much as we can before we leave the house to go to the club, so that we can save money.

We thought it would be a good idea if we didn't eat much so we wouldn't have to drink alot to get drunk. That was probably a mistake!

Last night we accomplished this feat! They had free drinks from 11 - 11:30 pm. We got there just in time to have two free drinks and got in for free since we have college ID's.

I think we were headed back home with an hour or two. We had fun dancing on the dance floor even though I did fall!

I lost my friends somehow in my drunkness. So I stumbled and I mean stumbled out to my car where I found my BFF sleeping the grass next to my car. It was hilarious! So I joined him.

We didn't have the keys to my car because someone else drove my car there. So we laid there until Chris found us.

It took me allllll day to recover from last night, but it was a fun night for sure.

National Coming Out Day

Disney's Pleasure Island Closing


When we first heard about Pleasure Island closing we were so sad. We usually head there every Thursday night to party it up with other gays at Mannequins. We heard they were set to close September 27th. The last few Thursdays leading up to the 27th were really packed. We knew we would need to get there fairly early the final Thursday they were open in order to get in. The lines are usually really during busy events. We arrived at 9:15 pm and probably got in the door in under 30 minutes. I would say by 10:30 pm it was really packed. We waited in line at one bar for over 30 minutes to get a drink. I finally noticed someone at the front of the line and bribed him to order six drinks for me. We went ahead and ordered 2 each because we knew the chances of us getting another drink were slim. They only had one bartender at each bar other than the main bar. They lost an extreme amount of money Thursday night. We would have drank more if we didn't have to wait in line so long.

The night quickly came to an end as it seems to always do when I am having a good time. We took a few last pictures together in front of the Mannequins sign and headed out to the parking lot. Of course we had to stop in at Taco Bell on the way home and plenty of other drunks did the same thing. By time we got back I was fast asleep and exhausted. I crawled in to bed around 3:15 am and set my alarm to wake me up at 8:00 am for work.

Now we have to find a new place to deposit our money and drink away our worries at on Thursday nights. I am sure it won't take long... I saw a sign for a cute place down the road called Brick and Fire that has .50 cent drinks on Thursday nights.

My Best Friend was Fired!

Well my best friend got let go from work the other day. We didn't see it coming and I think the punishment was very harsh for the crime. He did something he shouldn't have done and he admitted it, but letting him go from a job that he put four years of work into wasn't right.

He had contemplated leaving many times because he wasn't happy. It is hard to leave a job that you have security (so he thought) at and a job that you are comfortable in. This will push him into pursuing what makes him happy and excited to go to work everyday. I always knew he would leave our job, I just didn't know that it would be this soon. He is really bright and can do anything he sets his mind to. It will be interesting to see what decisions he will make in the near future. I am sure it will be inspiring to see what he makes of himself.

I know he is uncertain of what the future holds for him and where he is going from here but I have faith that he will come out of this hiccup in the road a much happier person, on the pursuit to his dream.
