Starting to see why Knoxville hurts himself so much...
It makes money. XD
Friday night marked Jason's last shindig with the rest of the 'Orders staff; unfortunately, most of us were working when it first started, but we made up for lost time afterwards. At first, me, Noelle, and Julia didn't think we could go, but then I decided 'Fuck it -- we need to be more active even if it IS work' and told the girls we were going the second we closed. By some miracle, Jared didn't take an hour past closing like he usually does and the three of us were off to the Friday's in record time. We ended up waiting for Libs and the rest of the herd for almost a half-hour, since they were still finishing up what seemed to be a drunken bowling game. Eventually, people started trickling in, starting with Kev and his girlfriend, followed by Dean and those with him. In the end, there were about fifteen of us crammed in the very back of the resturant, the freaks and geeks on one end, the popular ones on the other side. Just like high school! But our side had the most fun, methinks, cause Jason, being a geek himself, sat with us, wahaha! XD On our end was me, Julia, Noelle, Ken, Jason, Mike, his girlfriend, and Oleh. Mike L. was kinda straying into our territory, but I've never been able to pin him in one box so it was all good. Since the kitchen was closing within an hour, we all ordered simple things as well as the customary booze. Julia bought a margarita for Noelle (hurray for encouraging underage drinking!) and I got something called an ultimate Long Island iced tea. I was the only one really drinking on our side, but that's usually how it is no matter where I go. That and Mike said if he was gonna stick around, he'd better see a show of me getting shitfaced.
And what a show he got. ^^
So, I'm totally feeling the booze by now, all warm and comfortable, so I start chucking the discarded tails of the shrimp I'd been eating all over the table. Somehow, one of them landed in my forgotten glass of Coke so Julia and I just started piling all kinds of crap into it, much to our co-workers' disgust and amazement. In addition to more shrimp tails, my marinara sauce, a fry, ketchup, and feta cheese dip was put into the mix. Suddenly, Oleh bets me to drink it. In my semi-drunken stupor, I agree, but only after Mike coughed up a buck in hopes others would join. Oleh trumped him and slapped two fives on top of his dollar and I quickly set to. It tasted sooo baaaad, but it was worth it in the end, if only for the reactions of the entire table watching me. I'm not really ignored in the store during work hours, but I'm certainly not looked at as someone who'd cut loose at all. How little they know. ^^ Anyway, Oleh, pitying me, said I just had to drink half to get the money, which was good because I think I would've puked all over the place if I'd had to drink the whole thing and well, I don't think Ken and Mike wanted to be wearing my stomach's contents. XD Either way, I made a little money and earned myself a whole new reputation. Go me. ^^ And this was only Friday night!
Noelle and I had planned to hang out yesterday during work on Friday so around three or so, I picked her up and we headed out to Woodbridge. I think we stayed there for close to four hours just wandering around and oogling the pretty clothes. She'd feel faint whenever she saw lace and I'd squee whenever I saw fur or camo. It was a lot of fun. We had Chinese for dinner, bought four of the gift bags in the Sanrio store, discussed fashion, and generally had a good time. After the mall, we swung by work since I had to pick up Julia and Oleh was working (it's cute watching Noelle get all girly around him ^^). We looked through the Fruits book, admiring all of the supercute Japanese girls and wishing, like every other white otaku chick, that we were cute Asians, too. As I was looking for it before, I followed Oleh around as he reshelved some books, subtly inquiring about his dinner date with Noelle tonight. He tells me a lot of things already so it wasn't unusual for me to be discussing it. I told him to behave and that if he hurt her, I'd bust his kneecaps. He informed me that (and here's a little hi-mi-tsu for you, Noelle ^^) the only reason he'd appeared fickle in the past is because, while he wanted something serious, the girls never did. So he's totally looking for something to work. No hope lost here, methinks. :3
After that, we waited around for everyone to be done, then I brought Noelle back home. She's working today, a jittery mess, I'm sure, since her date is after work today. I'm thinking, if I'm still awake, of going out there and calming her down. Maybe I'll pop over to the Asian food mart and gank a box of Pocky for her. If I'm still awake, anyway. Got the moontime this morning and since Dad wasn't feeling too good, had to drive to CVS for my heat wraps, so I'm a little awake right now. I'm sure I'll crash later since I only got about four hours of sleep. We'll see. I know if we're working together for awhile tomorrow she'll be telling me all about it, which is cool. I do love being girly sometimes. ^^ Oh, now I know what I wanted to do today -- streak my hair. I'll leave it brown, but I wanted to do something colorful with it as well and figured some red or magenta streaks would look neat. The color has faded to a very pretty reddish brown already so why not? ^^
That was my weekend in a nutshell. Today is for whatever. ^^ Oh yeah, linkage for the Noelle: Fetish Kitten.Com Journal theme change pending, wheee.
