three parties in one day
man, what a weekend. from andy's birthday until now, it's has been a crazy 48 hours. on andy's birthday, we went out to breakfast at the cottage and it was really good. it's this cute little place in dowtown la jolla and i had a really good omelette. i didn't even want eggs, but since andy wanted french toast, i opted for the omelette. anyway, tio leo's was alright. after tio leo's we went to claim jumper for the infamous chocolate chip calzone. almost everyone was too full to eat that, so most of us just sat and chilled. btw, thanks for coming everyone.
anyway, so saturday was actually the three parties in one day. i went to the fiesta. i wasn't planning on doing that, but my mom told me to go at least for the mass/house blessing which was supposed to start at 11 a.m., so i went. i'm glad i did, though. we had some kick ass food. and it actually sustained me throughout the day until the 3rd party which was the Time Warner Holiday party. the 2nd party was a holiday party for the lab i work at at UCSD. the fun part was the white elephant gift exchange we had. when i left the house that morning, i just decided to not take part in it cause i hadn't prepared a gift and i was already running late to j's house. but while we were sitting in j's room, i asked him if he had anything he didn't want so that i could wrap it and bring it to my party. he ended up having the "batman forever" soundtrack and said i could have that... and it actually turned out being one of our CD's but its all good and i decided to wrap that bad boy up and whoever ended up with it was going to have to suffer. anyway, there were some really funny gifts in that little gift exchange. a jesus christ night light (which i actually had in my possession for a few short moments), a bunch of raver bracelets and lighted necklaces that someone had from a past halloween raver costume, someone gave away bubble bath specializing in relieving cramps and accompanied by a CD titled "music for menstruaters," but the best part is that the person who ended up with the "batman forever" soundtrack actually wanted it. i doubt she would have gone out and bought the CD for herself right now, but i think she was happy with it which was hilarious. i ended up with some random stationary that someone got as a gift a few years ago, but it also has this little booklet on making origami.... FUN!
the Time Warner holiday party was pretty lame. we didn't win any of the raffle prizes and the band was crappy, so we left after the last raffle drawing. the prime rib was tasty, but it was a sit-down dinner, so we only got a smidgen of food and i was still hungry. we decided to go back to j's house to see what what they were doing (and chakee lied and said she didn't know if there was still food so we would still go there and she KNEW there was NO food) and by the time we got there everyone was pretty drunk. i tried to catch up, but nobody wanted to drink with me, so andy and kyle decided to drink and i stayed sober. we did sing karaoke which was pretty entertaining, but that was about it. anyway, it is almost noon and andy woke up to have a cigarette and now he's sleeping again. i tried to go back to sleep, but i can't. i'm hungry, so i think i'll make breakfast. yes, i realize it's already lunch time, but i'm in the mood for bacon and eggs. me and andy are supposed to begin our christmas shopping today, so wish us luck on our journey against all those mean holiday shoppers. i hope he wakes his ass up soon.....
