| | Got back from the party about an hour and a half ago. It was pretty cool; it turned out that it was misrepresented - it was more like a gathering of sorts, and that's not a bad thing at all.
I was there along with Erik, Amy, Erin, Monica, Dave, Bill, Mike, and Erich. I was originally going to leave with Erik at 11:30, but when I realized that everyone else was staying far later, I said fuck that, and stayed until around 3:30, when Erin left and took me and Monica home.
I had expected alcohol, but twasn't in the cards. *sighs*
So the thing basically consisted of occasionally getting on Bill's sweet rig and playing Counter-Strike, watching Sin City, and talking. And drinking tons of Code Red.
Found out that Dave is big into Bright Eyes, and also plays D&D all the time; I asked him to contact me somehow to see if I can perhaps join a campaign, but who knows whether or not that will fall through. I'm so fucking busy now, with Tech Crew and guitar and gaming, that I wonder if I'd be able to fit D&D in. Anyway, Dave's a really nice guy, with good taste.
Bill was cool, being a serious PC gamer, but when he finally logged off his PC to go to bed (he had to work in the morning), I could only go on the guest account, meaning no games. So I made a wallpaper saying "Too Many Restrictions, Dick".
While I have nothing against Erich, he was a pretty dumb guy, and thus pretty boring to listen to. That said, he was asleep for probably 80% of the night, so again, I can't complain.
Mike is pretty funny, don't really have any other opinions. It was his house, and his basement is a geek wet dream. I know, because I nearly had an orgasm looking at his tech and DVDs.
Amy left early, around when Erik left, but I've known her for a couple months. Nice girl, though I have evidence that suggests that she might have been slightly offended when I said the word "cunt" a couple times. I don't think she was, but who knows. She's never warmed up to me quite as much as...
Erin, who is not only funny as hell, but very...inviting? As in, it's been very easy for me to be her friend. Don't really know how to elaborate, except that she has to be my favorite of the bunch. I spent most of my time making her laugh, along with...
Monica, with whom this was my first meeting out of Tech Crew. Cool chick, and now I know her on DeviantArt too. She and Amy are going to Videogames Live with Erik, his parents, and I on November 12. She's into Bright Eyes and The Faint.
Mike had two dogs, one of which was tiny and cute as hell; always happy, always rambunctious (I think its name was Orkin). The other one, whose name I know not, had fucking HUGE balls, one of which sported some kind of nipple-like protrusion. It was hypnotic and disturbing.
Speaking of nipples, Mike also had a mug that looked...Well, it's easier to display than explain...
It looked very similar to the image at right, except the handle was a naked woman with her back arched.
The discovery went something as follows, as we spied it upon a high shelf.
DAVE: Yeah, I total-What the hell...?
ME: What...Is that a mug...?
DAVE: Yeah, I guess...you drink through the nipple!
ME: *laughing* As it should be!
It also had some spanish writing above the nipple, but I wasn't feeling like translating.
I feel bad that Erik had to leave so early, but then again, it was kind of cool to be able to crack jokes and not have to go up against him, because we always spar.
Erin kind of annoyed me while driving me home, because I mentioned that I was disappointed with the lack of spirits, and she questioned my experience in drinking; since I don't get drunk every weekend or even every month, my responses seemed kind of lame. But eh. Then we went to McDonalds because she suggested it jokingly and I didn't want to go home yet. Good sausage biscuit.
So, all in all, a good night. I know that Monica is having a smaller party this weekend, and I'm hoping that she'll invite me, but I don't really expect it, because it's normally just Monica, Amy, Erin and Erik, so it might be unwelcome for me to intrude, and it would be rude of me to ask to come. But, since I have Monica's email, here's hoping. At least then I wouldn't feel so stressed on weekends, maybe. |
