What Raven has learned…

Raven has learned you do not drink random shots, from random guys, at random bars.

Okay, realistically, it was far from a random bar, as it was the Tannery (or 220 Lake Street…Or whatever the bloody hell they are calling it now…It’s where we go for karaoke anyway)…And it wasn’t quite a random guy, as it was one of Derrick’s managers from B.C.P. But…I was a very random shot.

Does not help when 1) I have the metabolism from the Abyss anyway, so something drank goes quickly into the system. And to that 2) I hadn’t had anything to eat since 10 hours previously, so my stomach was pretty much empty. And of course 3) I don’t really drink that much, if ever, and hadn’t had anything at all to drink in a couple weeks. And 4)…It was bloody whiskey! *falls over* Friggen 80 proof (40% Alcohol By Volume) Seagram’s 7! *dies*

Granted…I did survive (otherwise it would be a bit difficult for me to be writing this), and it wasn’t as bad as I would of expected whisky to be (but Gods, it could of had some kind of flavour). But, as I had nothing in my stomach, it made me a bit of the light headed, rather quickly. Thankfully, as it was only a shot, and my metabolism is rather on the quick side, it made it’s way out rather rapidly as well too. [Though my mind was telling me that whiskey is not a good idea for me to be having when my body is already in a mood. Then again, that might just be alcohol in general too.]

Anyway…About the day [Friday]…

Raya, Derrick, and myself got up, retrieved his things from where he use to live, and brought them back here.
Then we were off to Traverse City, where we had Chinese for lunch. Chinese is always of the yummies.

The second part of the night was, as it was a Friday, off to karaoke singing. I brought the video camera along. Why? Because Derrick had a plan…*insert spooky music* *laughs*

Anyway…Derrick proposed to Raya in front of the whole karaoke crowd…Of course my darling sissy said yesh. So they be of the engagedness. *tosses confetti*
Congratulations Raya & Derrick!

Anyway…Said engagement proposal more or less turned into an engagement party (as Derrick had gotten as many people as he could to show up).

Saturday: Tis weekly shopping day.
Raya and I went and did the weekly household shopping, and stopped at B.C.P. for dinner. 1) Because Derrick had to work tonight. 2) Because Tony had to work tonight. 3) Because Todd (previously mentioned manager) had to work tonight, and he owed us hot wings. *laughs* [As he had more than his fair share of beer, and I’m sure a few shots of his own, he was really too drunk to drive. Plus he said he’s already got one DUI, and another would mean a year in jail. So we brought him back to the house, since Derrick had Var stuff he had to do in Boyne this morning anyway, so he could take him back to his car. So yeah, he kept asking what he could do to pay us back…Raya deemed hot wings a good payment, and I agreed (as she has managed to get me hooked on them). Plus…He said it went towards earning ‘Tony points’…It’s like the whole usual doing good deeds gets you ‘Brownie points’…Since, apparently he hangs out with Tony on occasion at least.]

Raya and I went through two orders of hot wings today (@ 1 1/2 pounds per order).
I also got a black olive thrown at me…But it missed, and nearly got Derrick instead. Apparently Tony needs to work on his aim. We (as in Raya, Derrick, myself, and Tony) are suppose to go do something sometime…Hopefully of the soons. Derrick had initially said Tuesday, but it’s my Mum’s birthday, and I can’t exactly ditch her with the Critters on her birthday, that would be rude. [I’m guessing, maybe, next week. *burns down B.C.P.* There…No more worries over having the same days off. Okay…Not the best solution in all the world, but hey, I’m trying. *laughs*

*Random Scattered Thoughts*

*Is Maid of Honour* Cuz I is of the specials, and my sissy loves me to pieces. *grins*
All the talk of weddings today, Sonja said she wants to be a flower girl. I told her she would have to ask Aunt Raya about it. [Raya told me later that she hadn’t thought about it, but that Sonja could be…Even said something about her dropping black rose petals.]

I had some weird bits of dreams this morning…Part of it was drunk people leaving the house [Gee…Wondered what spawned that. *laughs*]…Though the one car didn’t have wheels, it kind of hovered as it went on it’s merry little way…It was blue…blue and white. Not that I’m sure that it matters much, but it did stick out in my poor little brain.

I’ve got to rewrite my English essay for Monday…As it’s due. Blah. *rolls eyes* Also need a topic for ‘Arguing the Future’.
I’ve got something like 17 pages to read (3 selections) in Ethics, and 5 questions to answer.

I think I’ve ran out of things to babble on about.
