Friday Night Football

Sometimes life is just right. When the planets align and the moon is full -- there are those rare occasions where I love my job, the people I work with, my friends, and where I'm at.

Last night was one of those nights. It was also a perfect night for football. Nothing like a little Friday the 13th late evening game to get the weekend going. It was beautiful as the sun set and there was a rosy pink hue to the sky and under the glare of the lights the gridiron had never looked as glorious.

Unfortunately there were a few downsides to the game. Number one, I'm pretty sure they water down their booze. When I pay $5 for a cocktail I expect it to have a little oomph to it. I had four of 'em and walked out of there without the slightest of buzzes (I think I got a better buzz off the boys who decided to spark a joint in front of us -- dumbasses).

The second problem was perhaps the company I kept for the game. After several other friends and family members ditched out of the game I was left to attend with a college friend. Which is fine, she likes football it should have been fun. Instead she was her usual self and I was annoyed before the opening kickoff. She needs to learn to relax. For some reason we scammed a ride with this random group of guys and she proceeded to get pissy when we got out and one of their friends asked "who are the randoms?" I took it in stride and started walking towards the stadium. She stood there and became uber-bitch to them because "I don't have to put up with this!" -- note that she also didn't have to get a ride with them. Seriously, she needs to relax.
I could go on about her but I will refrain. Let's suffice it to say that my plans after the game weren't cool enough for her and she left me sitting on the corner in front of a downtown hotel waiting for The Co-worker to come pick me up. She felt she could leave me there by myself because poor her "had to go into the pub by herself and she felt like such a loser". (I won't say anything else).

The other thing that sucked is they lost the game. I was more than a little disappointed but decided that they were due for a loss and hopefully this will ground them and show them how good they have to be to make it further!

The great part of the night was actually hanging out with my co-workers. We bonded over beers and consequently hung out with a couple of players from the opposing team. Nothing like having Paul and Buck staring at your cleavage -- I'm pretty sure Dave was looking too!

All in all another great Friday night!
