Big birthday events

Thursday 8/4, Ok, onto more exciting news: Thursday’s “80’s Night.” I got off of work early, but not as early as I’m supposed to, oh well. So I go home and relax for a little bit cause I know it’s going to be a looong night, then I take a shower and get ready, eat, and I’m out the door by 7:00 or so. I get to B’s and him, Schuyler and Jen are making kabobs with shrimp and scallops so I pass but it’s fun to chat with everyone and eventually we were all gathered around the barbeque cause they put wood in it and it started flaming up. Yikes. B and I didn’t get to spend too much time alone cause dinner and cleanup took so long but at least we got a little, then I left at like 10:15 or so. Got up to the lot and waited for Susan to get there and when she did we hung out for a few minutes and then made our way up to Neighbours. My bf was working the door and was all, “Do you remember what you promised me last week?” and I played coy like, “What did I promise?” and he was like, “That you were going to stay late until close” and I was all “Did I promise that?” it was fun. Susan was all, “Oh, she’s staying!” so we went upstairs first to watch and Susan went to conspire with bf about Duran Duran and a birthday message for "Hannah", then went back down and got into our corner. This fucking drunk ass guy tried to grab Susan and dance with her but she was like “NO!” and shook him off then he became a real prick, flipping her off, hitting her with his coat and mocking her. The whole night was crazy and the order of events is a little fuzzy, so I’ll try my best. There were a couple of really hilarious guys dancing, one with big black pants with some skanky girl and they were all goth hip or something, then there was this guy wearing all white, like a sultan’s outfit or something and he kept running up and down the stairs and all over, really hilarious. Craig showed up not too late and came over and talked to me and I congratulated him on his band stuff and told him it was my birthday, then he talked to Susan and she told him it was my birthday and they were talking FOREVER and she asked him about T&S and he said his name is Thomas, but then Craig left (to go find that drunk guy who was harassing Susan apparently, but he couldn’t find him), so then I went outside to get some fresh air (saw that they had kicked that drunk guy out) and Craig came out and said he was going to go somewhere else, and then Bouncer bf was like, “It’s her birthday” and Craig was like, “I know.” So then Craig left and I talked to bf then Susan came out beaming cause she’d introduced herself to T&S so we went back in and she introduced me and he’s so cute but then left us not too much later. So then Susan and I are in our corner but this guy is standing right by us FOREVER while we dance but eventually we go to another part of the floor cause of rowdy lesbians and to cool off by the fan. So we go over by the stage and these people are totally grinding on each other, then this gay guy (we think?) was trying to get with me then Susan and was grinding on her butt but she was like, dance with her, it’s her birthday! Then the guy from the stairs started trying to dance with Susan and again she was like, dance with her, it’s her birthday! So he starts talking to me and he has an accent and asks if he can buy me a drink, but surprise surprise I never get my drink (ie water) and he tells me he’s from Italy (Venice to be exact) but then Susan manages to pull me away from him and we decide to split up, she wants to go find T&S again and I go outside to escape. So I go out and tell bf about the Italian and then lo and behold out he comes and bf was like “Yeah?” and I was like “Yeah” so he kind of smiled and laughed a little. The Italian guy is asking me all kinds of questions and said he came out to relax but he wasn’t having much luck relaxing…well duh, you’re at a gay club on 80’s Night, or maybe he didn’t know. Finally he was like, so you’re 25 and I was like how old are you? And he wanted me to guess but I wasn’t about to, then he told me he was 23 and I was like “That’s how old my boyfriend is!" That got rid of him. So after he left I was asking bf, “What do you do? The guy was nice and all but I’m just not interested” so he was like, “You can do one of two things. First, I know you’re not, but tell him you’re a lesbian” so I’m like, ok done that one. Then he’s like (as he’s nonchalantly checking ids) “Second, your boyfriend’s the bouncer,” so I was like, (with a smile) well if I know I can use that as an excuse I will, and he was like, yes you can. So then I was like, I don’t know if we’ve (and I stuck out my hand for a handshake) I’m Karrah, he’s Andy, then I’m like, well I better get back in there and try to avoid getting hit on, and he was all “Remember” and pointed to himself, so I was like (coyly looking over my shoulder) “Thank you Andy” and he was like “You’re welcome Karrah.” Ha, then I was all giddy. So I’m doing laps trying to find Susan and looking and looking but can’t seem to find her, so finally I just stand on the side of the dance floor and figure I’ll see her eventually, or she’ll see me. So then this black guy taps me on the shoulder, and I’m like oh great, I don’t want to dance with you! But he was like, “I found your friend” and I’m like, “Yay, Susan!” so then we go off and start dancing again in our corner. Then later she was like “So why did you have that guy looking for me?” and I was like “What? I thought you told him what I looked like and he was helping you find me” she was like “No, he just came up to me and said “Your friend is looking for you” and then took me over to you” AUGGHHH, weeeeiiird! So then a few minutes later (after he watched some guy try to dance with us) the same guy grabs me and is like “Why is it that all the guys are trying to get with you two?” and I told him I didn’t know and that I just tell them that I’m not interested and that I’m just here to have fun with my friend and he goes “Yeah, I tell the guys that hit on me that I’m strictly a pussy cat man” ewwwwww, so I patted him on the shoulder and was like, “Buh-bye” but he managed to find me later and introduce himself and give me a napkin with all of his vital statistics on it (ie phone, place of employment (Club Medusa) and email). Yuck he had been like watching us all night. Creepy. At this point it was getting late and I needed another glass of water but the bar tender said I could only have bottled for $3, so I didn’t get one but eventually I found bf and asked him why they do that and he was like, “Oh, you can get a glass of water, it just has to be in a paper/plastic cup” but I told him what happened and he was like, “Well are you still thirsty?” I was, so he was like, I’ll get you some water and I offered to give him the dollar that it costs and was like “I’ll pay for it”, and he was like “Not on your birthday” so then he brought me a bottled one and I was happy. Pretty soon it was almost 3:00 and Susan was like, “You do not want to be here when the lights go on” so we found T&S and said good bye, but had to dance to one last song and “Bun” was looking for a good time with Susan or something but she denied him, and this other guy, just flat out…it was hilarious. Then we found bf and he was surprised I lasted as long as I did, but then kissed my hand and claims that the dj played the song and gave me a shout out at 12:20 but Susan and I know that the dj lied, so then we said good bye and walked to the lot and both went home. Big night, whew.

Wednesday 8/3, I didn’t do anything but sit at home and relax. Maybe I cleaned some stuff too, but not too much cause my room still looks atrocious. I can’t wait to rearrange it, but I want to wait until roomie moves out before I do, so then I can put stuff in the second bedroom while I get organized.
