40 oz. to Foremost Liquors

I think I just might have possibly had the greatest restaurant meal ever. We went to the Cheesecake Factory in Schaumburg today and I got tempura and bang bang Thai chicken and shrimp. SO GOOD. I didn't have room for cheesecake so will be going back before too long.

Last night was fun but weird. Josh, Quali, Bake and I started out at my place drinking and stalling till a group of other V3 workers got done w/ dinner. Then we went to 63rd St. billiards. We quickly found out that they didn't serve alcohol so we headed on down the road to crickets & cues. But first Baker and I had to fill our craving for a 40. After several failed attempts of finding one at gas stations we were directed to a liquor store where we found a couple of old guys and their dogs working behind the counter. They let Baker and me "me-you" the 40 while Bake played w/ the nasty dogs. We tried to get one of the guys to take our pic on Bake's camera phone but he just took a picture of her boob so we finished up and left. (Foremost liquors-in case you're looking for a quick stop in between bars) We finally got to the pool place and met up w/ the rest of the group. Stayed there till it closed and then went over to one of the guy's houses. BUT FIRST: We spent about 20 minutes looking for Bake. And then another 20-30 minutes trying to find this dude's house. We all stayed up till bout 5 and crashed there. I was lucky enough to get both a blanket AND a pillow-some were not as lucky. Bake Josh and I had to wake up 2 hours later to get Bake back home in time for her to meet her dad downtown. I'm sure the pompeii exhibit never seemed more interesting then it did to her this morning!

Hey, its me...Bake. As you mentioned, we slept for two hours. Then, I made you and Josh (AKA PUNJABI MC)wake up and take me home. I got home, talked on the phone to Quali who was also still drunk and laughed jovially. I dedicated about 20 minutes to laughing hysterically about the fact that I had a giant "J" ductaped to the back of the sweater I wore out. It was the best time ever. I couldn't believe how GREAT I felt. Then it was time to head downtown and learn about the lost city of Pompeii. And let me tell you. The Pompeii exhibit was amazing. Here is something interesting...I stumbled through it in about 20 minutes. I had my fill. Somehow, it took my family an hour. (Apparently they didn't feel it necessary to make a race out of it.) So, in the meantime, I slumped over on a bench and stared at "Sue" the t-rex on display. Whilst slumped over staring at Sue, I became sober....thus creating a hangover that could kill somebody. All of the sudden, the museum was no longer fun.

Oh, I didn't call Quali on the way home...I called her once I got to my house. My stupid phone had died. Interestingly enough, I was thinking today, and I remembered you and I making phone calls in the bathroom. (Right before we redecorated the bathroom. :) )Whoopsies.

i also only got 2 hours of sleep one night this weekend, and i had to go tutor jen the following day. and let me tell you, i was also anything but jovial. but, jen brought me food so i managed to make it through the day.

also, i've been to the pompei exhibit and i didn't really find it all that interesting. and it deffinately didn't take me an hour. and, i'm glad that i wasn't hungover for that trip.

Bake here again....

I feel that Hillary has left out some important tidbits from our evening.

1. Yes, the man's dogs were VERY nasty. That is why I gave him a lecture on the importance of proper dog hygiene.
2. The nasty liquor store men weren't all that bad. One of them had a mullet, how bad can he be? Plus, they allowed us to harass the other patrons of the store. Oh, and besides my lovely boobie picture, I actually did get a cute pic of you and I drinking a 40 in the liquor store.
3. You forget how we even heard about the liquor store. We harassed a gas station attendant for an unknown ammount of time. It was fun until I decided to break out my Beyonce immitation and you got all mad because EVERYBODY knows that you are Beyonce, and I am Jay-Z.
4. We missed the memo that the billards place was not, in fact, a dance club. Whoopsies.
5. We went to McDonalds where we demanded a litre o cola. The man knew what we were talking about, but Josh, who has never seen "Super Troopers" did not know what we were talking about. I am pretty sure he thinks we are certifiable.
6. I knew that we were in for a crazy night when we walked in (already drunk) and one of your darling co-workers handed me a shot of jaeger. (Who am I to say no? I am not going to be bad manners girl.)
7. I might still be hungover.
8. We redecorated the bathroom, and it was just so pretty. I attempted to go and redecorate the boys bathroom, but Hillary said NO. (I was just trying to be helpful.)
9. Josh, Hillary and I rolled into the pool hall with duct tape letters on our clothing. Hillary had a giant "B", I had a giant "J", and Josh had a giant "P". Hot.
