Weekend Wrap-up

I haven't blogged about my life in awhile, so let's do that.

On Friday nite, I took the MARC train to Baltimore, where Caroline picked me up and we drive up to pick up her the little boy she's currently "banging". We headed over to Sonar for a little indie rock dance party called Tax Lo . We downed 3 drinks in 30 minutes, to take advantage of the $1 rails/Natty Bos before 11PM special. I chased my drinks with a Sparks and danced with a ton of underagers.

We were having so much fun dancing and lost track of time. We left a little after 11:30 and headed over to Fletcher's for the Bravery. We missed most of their set, but I caught the last 4 songs. After the show, I accosted Sam and Michael and whined to them again about the lack of an EP. Sam said that their full length come out in March, right about the time when they will be playing at the Black Cat.

We attempted to go to one more bar, but as soon as I sat down, it was pretty much over for me. I had two sips of my beer before I felt the need to go home. I called Matt 3 times and asked him to come pick me up and take me back to Baltimore, but he was partying in D.C. and couldn't drive out there in the state he was in.

Caroline took me back to her place, tucked me in and snuck off to be with her man. I slept wonderfully in her bed and I woke up to natural sunlight, which was amazing. I don't see much of that in the cave. Caroline was back home by 8 and we fell back asleep for a few more hours.

I also blew $60 on new cds including, the 2 new Bright Eyes, which I said that I wouldn't buy because they always put me in a funk, like previous winters, but I am having a fabulous winter, so they make me smile for the first time. Also purchased was Dogs Die in Hot Cars, The Moving Units and Action Action.

On Saturday nite, Liz Ruby, Kyle, Kelly and Matt came over for Enchilada dinner, that Liz and Sarah and Kel made in honor of Liz's b-day last week. It started snowing. And then we went to Wonderland. There were a lot of assholes there and I was tired. Matt and I spent most of the time smoking cigarettes and taking photos.

Soon, I had enough and we headed over to the Cat, which was more familar and homey, but I was still tired. I couldn't even finished my beer, so Matt took me home, we listened to Interpol and went to bed.

After Sunday bruch at Tonic, Tim and I picked up some Budweiser E (Sparks' newest rival)and a Powerball ticket. It was a lovely day spent in the Cave with Sarah, Ape, and Ivy watching Anchorman and Shaun of the Dead. "I'm in a glass case of emotion."

The end.
