Crawling a Pub...or 5
Friday night found me and numerous of my fellow coworkers from the theatre on a pubcrawl. The day started with my picking up Krystyna and stopping to get an earring for my piercing, however it's too big. Then we picked up Shari and ran some errands. You know, the bank, the grocery store, Wal-Mart (for pens to write on our shirts). On the way to my place we ordered a pizza. We spent the last part of the afternoon getting ready. After being a half hour late, we set out to pick up Mark.
Pogue Fado
We got here and I immediately ordered a cosmo. Not sure about what I wanted to drink, I knew I at least wanted one of those. I ordered a second after my decision to "sing for my supper". First Geoff got up on stage and sang Great Balls of Fire. Then Shari, Krystyna, and Scott sang Somebody to Love. After that, Shari, Krystyna, and I sang Complicated. My pick, of course.
Peddlers
We made our way down to peddlers, Krystyna and I talking in accents the entire way. Halfway there we discovered that K still had on the tie she put on at Pogue's to sing! Oh well! Peddlers was fun, with $1.50 draft and shots who wouldn't enjoy it? I amused people when in the last 5 minutes of the power hour I ordered two and had someone say to me, "Do you have TWO beers?" Yup guys, I did!
At Peddlers I saw someone who I thought was a guy who lived next door to us growing up. I had just seen him earlier in the week when he came into the theatre, and upon mentioning that I realized, nope! It wasn't the same person! But I new him nonetheless.
Lower Deck
This place was busy as usual. Especially for 930 on a Friday night. We got drinks and went upstairs. I was slightly disappointed when Krystyna ordered Potato Skins in a MARTINI glass and they came out on a plate. Not much else happened here.
Mercury
When we got here, we noticed the other pubcrawl that had been at Peddlers was also here. They greatly outnumbered us, but that's okay. I got Mark to try to teach me some more swing dancing, but it was obvious it just wasn't going to work. Apparently a few guys from the other pubcrawl were trying to get all the girls to dance and none of them would. One made the comment to K that "all you on this pubcrawl suck. The only one who's any good is HER, cause she's out there dancing!" And sure enough, the her was me! I was also talking to some guy from the other pubcrawl and he said, "You know what our pubcrawl needs? YOU!" It was halarious. Later, I had this conversation with the bartender:
Bartender: Come on, let's go.
Me: What? Where are we going?
Bartender: Outside.
Me: Outside? Why outside? Are you kicking me OUT?
Bartender: Yup, let's go.
Me: But why, what did I do?
Bartender: You fell.
Me: I fell? Really? Oh, but I have a coatcheck.
Bartender: Where's your tag?
Me: I dunno. Oh! My friend has it, on her necklace.
Bartender: Do you remember the number?
Me: Yup, 20.
The bartender hands me my coat.
Me: Oh look at this! It's my coat! That was the right number!
The Dome
Getting kicked out wasn't too bad. We were only at the Mercury for another 5 minutes anyways. Apparnetly K tugged on my arm and I stumbled. Anyways. Someone came with me and we headed to the Dome. There I ran into Nancy and Savanna! It was fun until K took off with some dude called Arthur and I couldn't find her. Especially when it was nearing close. We did find her in the end. Thank god. I was so angry at her!
The night finally ended after we spent like three hours in McDonalds, took a cab to Zu's house. Zu drove us to Mark's house, and Mark drove K and me to my house. 7am.
What a night.
