My Day Yesterday

I went to work. There, I completed a first-run at an RSS feed generator for the school's news section. I also did some revamping of the website's admin tools. Ate a burrito for lunch.

I went to an art opening. It was at Crown Point Press, and featured work by Nathan Oliveira and Wilson Shieh. I liked a lot of the prints I saw. I saw some friends. Ate mini-pizza slices and a chicken dumpling, along with some red wine (Pinot somethingorother) and a beer. Got a beer for the road.

I walked to the Arrow Bar. I was accompanied by a group of people. Two of us (me being one of them) had bikes. We drank a bottle of wine on the way. And a beer. It was a nice walk. A guy on the street told us we were the new generation of winos.

I ate Chinese food in the Arrow Bar and argued with the bouncer about hurricanes. The food was awesome, and the fact I was eating it in a bar was awesome as well. In a booth, to boot. I drank a beer. A girl on the street gave me a free can of Monster energy drink. Free samples. Another guy got one as well, changed his mind about it and gave it to me. I stowed them both in my shoulder bag. I got into an argument about hurricane Katrina with the bouncer, that lasted for about 30-45 minutes. It was really pointless, so I won't go into it. During the argument, I started drinking one of the Monsters.

I caught BART back to the Mission. But not to go home! We went to a girl's apartment in my neighborhood. I didn't know her, but she was a very good hostess. She played records. One of our crew drank the second Monster, but it didn't do it, and she went to sleep in our hostess' bed. We hung out. We drank 40's. We were being too loud, as one of the roommates was asleep. We all took the 40's and climbed a ladder up to the roof. We played a game of charades on the roof. Two teams of three. My team won! It was all movie titles. One of the ones I had to do was "Thelma and Louise". I tried pantomiming two women driving and having good times with each other, then driving off a cliff. No one got it. I also had to do "Lawrence of Arabia". I tried pantomiming a camel, and swinging a sword around. No one got it.

I went home. We waited for two of our friends to get picked up by a cab, then the four of us left rode away on 3 bikes. One of the bikes had no brakes, which was giving me the heebiejeebies. But, I think everyone made it ok. They went for burritos. I went home. I'd already had a burrito for lunch.
