Good Morning and Happy Tuesday! I probably should have blogged last night but I'm a boring, old person and passed out on the couch by like 7. I had a busy weekend and was seriously lacking in the sleep department. And can I just tell you how much I miss spending time with my own bed?? How I end up on couches, I have no idea. But those couches have nothing on my bed. During college, I was the girl who barely went out to the bars, got annoyed by drunks and would rather be at home. Oh how that has changed. Nothing like acting like you are 21 when you are really 25. I figure at this point... if you can't beat em, join em. And they are really kind of fun!
This weekend I learned so much about how the whole thing works when you try to pick people up in a bar. Keep in mind that I would never be the type to go home with a random from a bar. Yes, I know people do it all the time. I feel like you are just asking for something bad to happen. The guys you have never met and decide to go home with, could really just want to make you a skin coat. That is not for me! That said, Friday was without a doubt the most awkward night of my life and really fun all rolled into one. The whole thing started when boy#1 and I made plans to hang out Friday night. Yes, at this point he is boy#1.. Ridiculous that they need numbers? Maybe a little, but you don't get their names.. Ok, so Friday night rolls around and boy#1 tells me he spaced and that boy#2 is coming to town. I think ok, whatever, I'm actually pooped and would be ok with going to bed early. Then I get invited along to Broad Ripple. 1 Heather, 2 boys. Should be awkward enough right? Especially since boy#2 is the boy I saw like 3 or 4 weekends in a row and nothing ever happened. Boy#1 is way cute and boy#2 decided he likes the single life after seeing me a bunch. Following? Good! So I decide to be DD yet again. This time I swear it's going to have to actually happen because I am not leaving my car in BRip overnight to get towed away.
The first bar we go to is Brothers, which I really don't like. Last time I was there, it was packed! And being a short person, I didn't stand a chance. Nothing like being stepped on all night and never being able to get to the bar. So we get to Brothers and really it's not too crazy crowded. It's full of people but I can actually walk around. The whole dynamic of 2 guys being in a bar with 1 girl I found to be hilarious! I really had no chance of getting hit on all night which was fine with me, but I think girls were confused on which guy I was with. If I was talking to boy#1, he got no attention. If I was talking to boy #2, he got no attention. And when I talked to them both, I think other guys wondered why I was awesome enough to get two guys. ;) While standing around and people watching a girl walks by and basically undresses boy#1 with her eyes and then some. Really?! Girls do that stuff?? It was awkward enough that the 3 of us noticed and were in shock at how blatant it was. Not going to lie, the green eyed monster of jealousy popped up a little because I was so annoyed. I don't think I have been jealous of a girl looking at a guy I was with in a long time, but there it was. After some more standing around, both boys noticed a girl a table away from us talking to her friends. And she noticed them looking. At this point boy#2 tells me how for the rest of the night she will dance around with her butt to them for the rest of the night. Sure enough, she did. And then she proceeded to dance like a slut with one of her friends. Really?! Eww. Boy#1 notices pretty girl in a black dress and tells me she will go home with someone by the end of the night. I didn't see it. Not even for a second. She was girl next door pretty wearing a black dress I could wear to work and didn't even have on hooker heels. But, about 2 hrs later befrore we moved on to the next bar, she was sitting at a table with a guy she wasn't with earlier in the night, being more touchy feely than I would be in a public place. By the time we got to Rock Lobster, our second stop of the night, boy#1 and boy#2 (I feel like I'm referring to them like Thing #1 and Thing #2) were pretty much hammered. It was pretty much an uneventful time at the 2nd bar because the guys were too drunk to notice any girls and they had already been warned that no bar sluts were allowed in my car since I was driving home. :)
Not that anything miraculous happened Friday, but going out to the bars with guys is a whole other experience than going with your girl friends. Seems like guys are always on the prowl and know exactly what they are looking for. It's like a shark who senses blood in the water.
Ok now to the boring stuff.. reading! I'm such a dork I know, but one of my New Year's resolutions was to read at least a book a month. I think I've read enough for the whole year.. A few weeks ago, I read Easy by Tammara Webber. Boring girl goes off to college with her boyfriend who becomes fraternity boy and basically forgets she exists and breaks her heart to go have fun with other girls. Douche.. She has a bad night and mystery boy comes to save her, all the while she is emailing the TA back and forth in a class she missed while mending her broken heart. She falls for both guys but there's a surprise there.. I can't tell you, but it's good. Easy read with lots of twists and turns.
Ok. That's enough for today. Have a good week and I'm sure with the Happy Hour party Friday, I will have plenty to add next week!
