Tomorrow We Can Drive Around This Town

The weather makes no sense. Monday it got up to sixty-five degrees. Would obviously prefer that to the fucking freezing shit that we've been having. Then last night, there was a wintery mix, and today it is rainy. Back to work following a lovely weekend. Nick said that it feels like coming off of a three day weekend or something, because we had been together (sleeping wise while his parents were away) for three days in a row, and that that is a pretty good sign if we have been in eachothers' company for an extended period of time, and it feels like a vacation haha. I agree, and thought that was pretty cool that that is his take on it. Went to that function with the people from his work on Friday. We were the only white people there, and initally, no one he knew had arrived, so it was awkward--- there is simply no way to downplay being the only white people someplace. But, there were free apple martinis for the ladies for the first hour, so it didn't take long for me to forget this fact, and no longer be phased by it haha. His coworkers soon arrived, and it ended up being a lot of fun. Danced some and we ended up staying till after one when the thing shut down, as opposed to only staying a little while. Stopped off at Frazier's on the way home, but Rob and Angel had already left, but did randomly run into Victor, which was cool. That reminds me, not sure now if I have to get a Christmas present for him or not. Found out that Rob got me something, so yesterday I was able to find the perfect thing--- a Flight Of The Concords poster. Hope the packages arrive this week. Slept in somewhat on Saturday, then went with mom to this new coffeeshop that opened in Lauraville called Grind On Cafe. It's awesome and we had a really good time. Definately want to go back there. Nick was recuperating from the night before (and the Hennessey), we spent the day watching television, including PeeWee's Big adventure, a movie that I loved as a kid, and much like Hairspray, watching it years later as an adult, so much that went over my head then, makes it like watching a completely different movie. I ended up really enjoying it, and surprised I remembered some little details, too. Nick's parents got back around this time, we ordered pizza, and Christina came over for a while. Went to Club Charles around 10, met up with Rob and Angel and Lori. Had a good time, got to sleep in Sunday before taking Nick back home to go to The Ravens' game with his dad (caught the third and forth quarters on television, what a shite call. No way that was a touchdown. The fact that I now can say things like that and actually know what I am talking about, is a modern marvel in and of itself.) I got some Christmas shopping done and met up with Dad and Mary. Had dinner at Outback, then, since it was Christina's B-day, met up with her and the Goucher Lesbian Brigade at Brewer's Art. Monday got most of the rest of my Christmas shopping done and did the wrapping before heading to Club Charles. The movie theatre across the street got robbed right after we got in the bar, and the ticket guy had run over to have Jamie call the cops. I was shocked and appalled. Don't know any more details about it though. Called out yesterday. Went to Grind On Cafe with Carmin before she and Allen left for New York. They were going to see Neil Young and Wilco at Madison Square Garden. Glad they made it back ok. We had tickets to see RaRaRiot at The Ottobar last night, got there really early, had a round downstairs then went upstairs for Twofer's (since they weren't doing it downstairs), till the band went on. Rob and Melanie were there, with Carolanne and The Moose. Weirdness. Rob and Angel and Kyle and Steph were out, too. RaRaRiot actually was kind of a let down. Dying Is Fine is an awesome song, and there were a couple of decent ones, but really not that great. Nick made some interesting observations about Rob and Melanie, and said that he thought that he and I each got the better end of that deal, which was nice. I agreed, and he said that he knew that he did. Will be glad to go home and take it easy tonight, nap and watch Top Chef.
