Last night I had no plans, I was just going to meet up with Tanya and Carol and see where the night brought u, what an adventure we ended up on.
I met them at ICT shortly after 8 o'clock, they jumped in my car and we headed downtown to Tim Hortons, for some warm beverages.
While we were there my friend Kevin called, he was also in town and was wondering what I was doing, I explained to him how we were in search of some entertainment. I called my friend Kelly to see what was on her agenda before nabbing Kevin from a tiny shit hole bar in Sydney. Kelly was just exiting work, with my friend Jason, whose birthday it happened to be, we all wished him a happy birthday and thought maybe we would stop by his apartment to wish him well in person.
Kevin, Carol, Tanya and I arrived at Jason’s around 9:30 pm, we chilled out there and had a glass of wine till about 10:30 ish. I had a very small glass of red wine because I was driving, but I still managed to spill it on my shirt, so Jason lent me another, which matched perfectly with a skirt I had in my car, so I changed.
We then headed off to the Rum Jungle (aka "The Slut Hut") which was completely empty, except for a couple playing pool at the far end of the bar. My friends were disillusioned because they had expected a crowd, loud, pounding, dance music, and the atmosphere was anything but.
Luckily I used to work in a bar, and knew how to liven things up pretty quickly, the hot bartender walked over near us from the DJ booth and said that things would pick up, it was only 10:30 after all. I then walked over to the bar and asked the bartenders to entice my friends. Did they have any drinks specials? Could they put on happier music?
I then bought a drink for our birthday boy, ordered something non-alcoholic for myself (the hot bartender told me I was "no-fun" till I explained I was driving then he gave me all my drinks free for the night). We danced, played pool, wandered around, danced some more, and enjoyed ourselves immensely.
Around 1 am we headed towards the Capri, the bouncer at the door asked me for my ID which I couldn't find, then Carol realized she had left hers at home (because we had not planned on going to a bar). We then headed to Hermans, now I haven't been hit for ID at Hermans in ages, but walked up to the door different bouncer than usual, and I was hit.
We then headed for food and ended up at the Italian Village, ordering pizza and having a rather crude conversation, the poor older couple at the next table almost choked on their food numerous times.
We then took Jason home, met up with Kenzo and Jude, we partook of some "chicken" and just chilled for a bit, enjoying the end to a rather interesting evening.
The best adventures are always spontaneous, I had a terrific time, it just goes to show, you don’t have to be cranked to have fun.....
