HI. I am in M and I's apartment with our foster cat Fermina Daza. I just took a walk in the rain. My pants got so wet and my legs got so cold. Like water in my shoes and socks and covering my sweatpants. It kept me present because I couldn't think about much other than the storm. The rain in my breath and hair and checking on the growing spring flowers. Now I am showered and warm. There weren't any people out because of the rain. Except, of course, two duck friends I made.
I spent the weekend like this:
THURSDAY NIGHT:
Trivia at Ireland's to support Archer and I won a hat from the brewing company and I got beer for free and my team got second and I got to sit by my crush. Then I poured beer on Victor's pants. Which was accidental, but I'm not upset about it. Smug son of a bitch.
Friday:
Mark, Shack, Ellie, Max and I made breakfast for dinner. Shack made a double batch of gluten free pancakes with his family's secret recipe and it was so so amazing just a massive pile of pancakes. Then Max and I went to the MAYHEM BALL at Beauty Bar. We danced to Judas and Born This Way and Abracadabra and- Max did the limbo under people's arms and we got BOGO gin and tonics because they forgot to charge us for half.We went to Scarlet after that for more dancing and singing and of course my cheeks were rosy from the laughter and the crowd and the music.
Saturday:
I spent all day playing Whirley ball with Kate's parents which was SO FUN and then after we drank beer and visited and had french fries and nachos and wings. Kate's dad told me he has an orange suit. Sure! Then I worked on my research poster for hours. After I ate then I met up with Quincy and Berko and Nate at Flacos because we were pregaming for the 'roast'. Nate got a blue margarita and he was really upset about it and he reluctantly drank it all. Drank and laughed the rest of the night and put another temporary tattoo on my hand and Nate's arm (a four leaf clover).
Now it's Sunday. I sang at church this morning and walked in the rain which leads me back to the warm living room with Fermina Daza next to me.
