oh my...
yeah, my costume wasn't the best because i didn't really have the money, the car, or the time to plan a good one. so i went as a vampire librarian because they have been featured in some books recently, most notably, the historian by elizabeth kostova. it's a fun book and i recommend it to anyone, but must warn you all to not be turned off by it's 600-some page length. i promise it's an entertaining read!
but the party started at 7:30ish at a friend of jenna's. i went with her and we drank and ate in the courtyard of this apartment. i knew a couple of people from jenna's birthday party and the other new girl from work, jessica, and her fiance, scott, were there. jessica was wooed by scad to be our new cataloguer and got all the same lies i got about finding her spouse a job and this being a great cheap city with lots to do. she's great and we've bonded a lot. she's someone who would be my friend in any other city as well. we've just decided that it's sad we've met under these conditions when we feel like we are not in a place we want to be...
anyway, then the party moved along to the downtown bars. i have never lived anywhere where EVERYONE dresses in trashy, slutty costumes. i didn't have that great of a time once we went downtown because there are only about 10 bars and they had to accommodate everyone who was out. the streets were also covered in puke and because drinking on the street is legal, everyone had brown paper bags with bottles or plastic traveler cups. i'm too old for that much puke on the street...
