I went out with my friend JoLyn Saturday night for her birthday. Since it was her birthday, I told her I would be the designated driver or as I was referred to all night...The DD. So, I was the only one that didn't have any alcohol...and it was a seriously eye opening experience.

To all of you who have been sober around me when I've had one too many of the adult beverages....Please accept my most sincere apology. Seriously, I damn near turned Native American Saturday night, I was almost a member of the Slapaho tribe. When I told JoLyn, "Wow, you're being really loud." She said to me...
"Bitsh, pleash. You're the loudesht bitsh ever when you drink!"
After she said this, I first wiped the little bit of spittle of my face and then I realized...she's right. When we went to see the Wooden Birds, apparently I was a loud bitch...so much so that when I said something, the lead singer gave me a weird look. I will say this though, at least I'm a happy drunk. Thank God my friends and I are not boo hoo crying drunks. Those are the worst kind. So, again, I will apologize for past and future obnoxious drunkeness.

In the meantime, here are some pictures from Saturday night...

This is the beginning of the evening.


Here are the three of us. The girl on the left is Sasha...it was her 21st birthday. This was about halfway through the night

One of the drunkards got let loose with the camera. They said, "Smile Amanda!" And as you can see, they almost cut me out of the pictures.

As stated in my Twitter update, I did use jazz hands all weekend!

And here we are at the end of the evening. One thing I didn't realize about drunken friends...they sweat...A LOT! When this picture was being taken, I was in the process of saying, "ARGHHH, Y'all are both sweaty and moist...GET OFF ME!!!"

I'm mostly joking...I love these two girls and I will be happy to be their DD any time.

Until next time...

At Walter's, you remember how Tara and I were giggling when we were standing near the stage? It was because we had just realized the exact same thing! We thought it was so funny that we'd never before noticed how loud people are when they drink, and I cringed a little when I realized how obnoxious I have most likely been all these years ... oy.

Also you asked me why my hair wasn't sweaty like everyone else's. I thought maybe I just wasn't as hot as y'all were, even though it was a zillion degrees, but now we know.

I had no idea!

And btw ... I'm glad you showed everyone the appropriate and proper way to utilize the jazz hand. Because these are not spirit fingers ... THESE ARE SPIRIT FINGERS!!!

Hey, Mandy!

It's weird because I could have sworn I'd commented on this post and there's nothing here.

Anywho, just wanted to say that I miss ya and I hope you're having a good summer since we haven't heard from you in like a month now. Hope you're ok!
