Day 345: Cheese, Champagne, Revelry

Written at 11pm on 12/11

Last night was crazy. Started with three glasses of champagne at Apothecary with a bunch of strangers plus the birthday girl, Lily. I did pretty well I think at mingling and making small talk with the others. I was pretty tipsy by the first glass because I hadn't eaten anything since breakfast. So I ordered a salad and sampled the artichoke dip that two of the other girls bought. Eventually the bulk of us headed over to Nate's for the proper party/sleepover part of the night.

With that many people in that small of a space, it made for a lot of noise and some arguments. Enough so first a neighbor came down to complain and then apparently a cop did (I wasn't witness for that one). I had another three glasses of bubbly and mingled hard core at that point. A few hours in I got schooled on cheeses by one half of one of the couples who was very generous in sharing their cheeses. One in particular had me out of my mind eating it. Just thinking of it now makes me feel like I could eat a block.

So I lost steam around 4 and passed out after blowing up my bed and sheeting it up. I figured the others wouldn't be that far behind, especially since the two owners of the place were already asleep by then. I woke up at 6 or so cramping of all things. So perfect that I would finally start on the day that I am not in a relaxing position at home. Luckily, I was prepared because it has been so late I have been wanting to be prepared at any moment, so I got up and took the pills I had in my coat pocket. The birthday girl and the other half of the cheese couple were watching The Big Lubowski so I watched that with them for a few minutes before passing out again...

To Be Continued...
