I got massively wasted last night, for almost no money. I couldn't believe this is possible in bars in new york. Oh and not gay bars either.
I went out for a drink with Nate last night, and it so happens that Nate is a fucking gold mine unexplored. He first got a couple beers, and then was like "let's do shots, but we'll ask the bartender what she likes" and he does so. Nate's an incredibly shy kid, but th (really cute, jewish) bartender at 1020 said "let's do a shot of whisky together. what do you want?"
I shouted, "Maker's Mark". We had MM and she had Jameson. Long story short, she said "well, you bought me a drink and I bought you a drink, so 6 bucks" for 3 shots of $6-a-shot whisky? woah! so we paid, and I sat down saying "Oh my god kid, you have sooo much potential."

The next thing to do, was obviously to buy her a shot. so we said "you were so nice, we'll buy this time." and she proceeded to gives us once again free shots and say "well, you're buying my shot, so 6 bucks."

After this, I went to a beach party with mr trunnel where surprisingly enough I knew alot of people (mostly seniors) although if you know me, you know I'm a hermit nowadays. And then I realized the party was being hosted by Elise and other girls from Lexi's "ex" sorority (since she left that shit last year before she graduated). Then I realized that was not such a good place to be. that girl Dominique and I had a small conversation. She navigated the crowd by saying "excuse me, I'm beautiful. let me get to the front" but actually she is really pretty and she's a pretty cool girl. So I jokingly said to her "you know, you can't get through life just with good looks. Unless you're cool as well. You see my friend Nate over there, he is good looking but that gets you so far.Oh I think we've met." and she replies "yeah, I think we have...through Melissa?" and I say "No, I dated Lexi for a very long time." She looked at me and smiled and said "well, then you do know that I will get through life with good looks!!"


So, whisky and beer in belly, Karisa called me and took me to the stend, which I don't go to normally, and she knows every bartender and bouncer. I think I paid 5 dollars for at least a gallon of their specialty shot "Lion's breath". I was so wasted I slurred and stumbled out of the bar. Meanwhile i lost nate because he A) doesn't have an ID, and b) didn't have his phone. I took Karisa to the quad, and then I went back home.

so, 10-12 bucks later,I've spent 4 hours curing my hangover. this includes, oatmeal, lots of water, amphetamines and soon a ham-egg-cheese sandwhich and some coffee (even though I quit, I think I'm gonna need it if I go out).


today is a Johnny Cash day. I'm an official convert now. The man is black might have been christian, and I am not...but he sings so earnestly that I am stirred every second I listen to him. Covers and Originals, he spins heart into everything...

And the whirlwind is in the thorn trees
The virgins are all trimming their wicks
The whirlwind is in the thorn trees
It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks
In measured hundred weight and penny pound

When the man
comes around
