We started out with Kayleigh making cheesesteaks for everyone (well, almost). Then we started the festivities. Kayleigh invited Lucas, aka Train Guy, to the party, and we all liked him I think. It felt like he fit in well, which is nice. Love having new additions :) Later, we had a MUCH more random addition, which is I believe the funniest part of the evening.
So I was downstairs having gotten into some sort of footrace with either Anna or Rich or Sam. I know, I know. Keep the party contained. But sometimes, a girl's gotta run. So I'm in the lobby, not really minding my business, when a freshman wanders in claiming to be looking for "Rachel" in ###. Now, ### shares the same door as my building but it's got a different set of stairs. We were intrigued by the coincidence. So then, instead of letting this kid go on his merry way, several of us engage him in conversation, and he decides we seem like more fun than the party he was on his way to (or perhaps he never was on the way to another party, and heard my name to try and weasel his way into ours...and it worked). So to keep everyone from continuing to shout at this poor kid in the hallway, I bring him to our humble abode. I gave him the tour, refused to give him alcohol, and allowed him to hang out with us for a while. Then, this kid gets cocky, for reasons we don't really understand. We had essentially been harassing him from the moment we met him in the hallway, and yet, the cocky. So at some point, after he declared that he was more than capable of hooking up with Bridget (a statement which nearly got him knocked out by Bridget I'm sure, and she could do it), and informing us that he'd been kicked out of the last party he was at because he got in a fight, I decided things had gone on long enough, and I forcibly removed him from my apartment, in my oh-so-subtle drunken Rachel way. After briefly making sure he hadn't taken anything (though we obviously hadn't let him out of our sight the whole time). Then, he bolted with the tequila (which I hadn't been letting him drink anyway). So two of the guys have to chase him down. When they caught up to him, he tossed them the tequila and bolted :) So much for his bravado and self-proclaimed muscular prowess. It was like living an episode of the Jersey Shore. "DonJohnson" (not his real name, rather the name we gave him), wherever you are, you're not invited to future parties. But it was nice to know you.
And now for something completely different...
Mikey and I are going to start a cover band (which hopefully will progress into a regular one?) Yes, it was just a drunken idea, but I think that we've got talent that's just sitting here. And I think we have fairly similar taste, and have the same ideas about the kinds of things that should be covered. And...AND...he just got into Joni. In other words, this is gonna kick ass.
So yeah. That was Friday night. Then I had a wonderful Saturday morning, had french toast with Katidid and Mimsy for lunch, and sat around writing on my blog for a little while. Later tonight, kidsitting. Later later, probably some more questionable life choices. I do love college.
