Friday being Lyric's birthday celebration and Ten For One Night (Officially "10-4-1" night, which has the double meaning that at first drinks are 10 for 1, but half an hour later they're 4 for 1, and then they're 1 for 1) at the Grad, Kristy and I met up with Lyrics friends at the Grad. It was crazy, we got six drinks for $4 something. Unfortunately one can only but two drinks /person at a time and the lines were too long to go through twice in the first half hour. But I gave in and went back during the 4 for 1 period and my drink was still only around $2.
Then everyone scampered off to M Street (I didn't even know there WAS an M street?!) for this girl Bitafilter's "White Trash" theme party. Kristy and I made a brief appearance and then took Tipsy Tapsy home. "Maybe we should drink more or they won't let us on it?" Another idea I came up with during the long wait to get through to Tapsy Tipsy was to order a pizza and hitch a ride back from the East Davis Suburban Labyrinth with the pizza delivered (Kristy: "on the minus side, that would be more expensive, but on the plus side, we'd get pizza out of it!").
On Saturday my former flatmate Ben came to down (did I mention that Ben moved out? Replaced himself with another Indian guy). I think Ben and my other flatmate Jason just came with me to Kristy's place where we all hung out and watched The Simpsons on DVD. This night blurs into the preceding and proceedings evenings a lot in my memory though.
Sunday night was an indie dance night at The Grad (made possible by Jordan "DJ Boy Wonder" Smart), & Ben's birthday. We convinced him to commute from Novato an hour away again, and go to the Grad with us. Kristy made awesome cup cakes in cones for the occasion.
Anyway, our expeditionary force to The Grad consisted of Ben, our flatmate Jason, Kristy's flatmates Chrissy and Jadine, Kristy and myself, and we were joined by Jardine's friend Michelle. Everyone had a blast, and there was definitely jockred in the air.
