elvendoll...very mellow and laid back, and an improvement from this day last year.
i drove in from NJ yesterday, and made it in almost record time - i left my grandparents' house in parsipanny at 7:12, and pulled up to the house right around 10:25 - it certainly made up for the 5 hour trip down there. i tried not to speed too much, and still gave myself a couple of close calls - one was a cop who was in the woods of a median strip, but hunting for cars going in the opposite direction, and another was a set of two cops, coming up from behind me as i was doing about 90 - it was such a d'oh moment, too, because i was in the center lane, and saw them catching up to me - i couldn't see cop-car-markings on the cars, but they were driving in the marked way cops drive - and i thought to myself - hey, that can be a cop - but, because there were two cars going that fast, i just shrugged off my gut feeling. finding i was wrong was quite the surprise.
i got home to find adam there, and spud & melinda got back shortly after i did - it felt so good to be home after a few days away : )
after a little catching up, i went to the club, and ended up having a very good evening : ) lots of people were out, and seemed to be in good spirits, and lady b. was spinning really good music in the back room : )
i'm still curious how much of a good night/bad night at MR is from the inside out, and how much from the outside in - because i was very happy to be out & about, and everyone else seemed to be, too... and other nights i feel really off there, and others don't seem to be happy/hyper/etc...
probably because i was hungry when i left the house, the one drink i had hit me pretty hard - i was buzzed on & off at the club, was ok driving home and checking email, but when i layed down, i got the spins : ( so, up i went, and into adam's room to hang out for a bit... there, i was smart enough to drink some water, but not smart enough to realize i should probably eat (which was actually my plan earlier in the evening), so even when i did go back to bed and managed to fall asleep, i kept waking up & feeling alcohol in my system.
overall, i'm almost surprised i got up mostly human and have been able to function just fine...
i'm also hoping this functioning thing lasts... in theory, i should really make it to the gym after work - i haven't gone in months, and i really need to compensate for my metabolism drop... there's also a movie playing out that i want to see, but don't know who to go with, and i have pictures of abi to download from the camera when i get home : )
