Journal red5's Journal: Laptop Saga concluded and a crazy night. 4

I got the sucker in the mail on tuesday. It's badass Later this month I'll be getting DSL in my apartment and go back to my irregularly scheduled party journal. For now here's one to tide you over.

I was hanging with a mate of mine last week we'll call him jasb it was a Wednesday and we were foraging for a nightout. First we went to VIDA. On the way up the ramp some drunk silverlake uber-hipster started cursing us out for no apparent reason. I didn't really catch what she said but it sounded like she called us niggers. This struck me as odd since I'm about as white as they come.

We went in the bartender was MIA there and it was wall to wall "silverlakers". Hipsters are annoying, but I have a special sorta vendetta against the silverlake variety.

Thing is I actually grew up in silverlake. I played little league baseball in Bellevue park. Silverlake is my fucking neighborhood. Now these pompous assholes moved in and everyone associates the city with them. I feel robbed.

Next we moved on to "Ye Rustic" my mate comes through with a round. Next he grabbed a booth in the back-room. I'm on my way through the passage to join him when the waitress doubled back without looking. I try to dodge but it's hopeless. My beer gets spilled all over her and me. Mostly one me. She apologizes I tell her it's okay and sit down in the booth.

I scan the room and clock the booth just across from us has two unattended, reasonably attractive women. One of them smiles at me. I'm not sure if it's for the beer incident just a second ago or because she's into me. I leave it for now.

The two guys sitting against the wall didn't hold back though. They started working on them and chatting them up. My mate is feeling like going to the next one. So I tell him we'll go for a quick smoke and if we don't meet anyone we'll move on. Right as were getting up I overhear one of the girls ask the guys if they have a light. I pull out my zippo and light it quickly as I walk by. Close it with a wink and keep walking.

"Nevermind" she says as she follows me to the door. I light her up and we start talking. Her friend joins and we all seam to be getting on fine. After they go inside my mate tells me he wants to bounce.

We drive by a few places but they all look dead. He decides to call it a night and I tell him to drop me back at "Ye Rustic". I walk back to the booth and the guys have joined the girls at their table. They see me and wave me over. We all start talking and as lastcall comes the three of us exit together.

I see one whisper in the others ear then they both nod and look at me. "You want to come back to our place?" they ask me. "Sure sounds like fun." I reply. They drive me and we make a stop for smokes.

Get to their place and we start drinking. One of the girls brings out weed and proceeds to smoke it. I starts to wonder where this is going. I'm sorta getting vibes off of one of them, then she tells me she has a boyfriend.

Soon after she goes to bed leaving me alone with the second one. Ten minuets later the second one turns in. She just tells me she's tired and good night. Neither one asked me to leave and I'm left alone in their living room.

I live about 5 blocks from their apartment so I scribed down my number, put it on their fridge and walked home.

    And my only comment to all that, "yup, you're as white as they come." :)

  • I had that happen to me one time, where everyone kinda just went to sleep and I'm sitting in the living room trying to figure out wtf just happened.

    I mean, does that indicate they want me to go? Or is it an invitation to join one of them in bed?

    I took the high road. Found out a few days later I should have stayed :)

    Oh well. Good call I think. And welcome back homey.
    • Yeah, the big question is what did she SAY when she went to bed? If she said something like, "Well, I'm going to bed..." then it was an invitation. If it was something like, "I'm tired, talk to you later..." you should have said, "Where should I sleep?" and winked. :-)

      Let us know if they call, bro.

  • I wouldn't have clued in like your other readers.
