wasting time.

our flight is delayed. we haven't left the house yet, and it keeps getting pushed back more and more.
so i thought i would write about my friday night/morning adventure.

i ended up staying out all night with yenh, hector [who i will seriously try to start calling j.r. since i'm the one only who calls him hector], and anthony. so i only got one hour of sleep, which made yesterday a struggle.
but it was a good night. :]

we ate at silver peak, we danced at 210, and we ate some more at the peppermill.

there was plenty of drama mixed in when hector's ex's friend spilled her drink on yenh. i offered to be yenh's roxana, and tell the girl i would break her face if she ever did that to my friend again. [if you don't know what i'm referring to, read the longest paragraph in this post.] but yenh wanted to keep things low key. i'm fairly certain i wouldn't have been able to follow through, but it could have been fun to see what happened if i tried to channel my inner roxana. ha.

hector... i mean j.r. and anthony are first year med school students. they are on winter break, but it was still hard to get them to commit to going out for the night. they decided to dedicate all of their days of vacation to snowboarding, and going out for the night would mean giving up one day of snowboarding. a hard sell, but yenh and i worked it out. ha.
during our second meal of the night, this guy sitting at a table across from ours stood up, tried to walk, and fainted. [he was beyond drunk because he had come from the dj tiesto show at the peppermill that we missed.] i told hector and anthony that they should have jumped to action, but let's just say they weren't quite in the proper condition to issue medical care.this isn't a set up. they were fast asleep at this point. anthony didn't even get to eat very many of his fries because he couldn't stay awake. and j.r. started snoring shortly before we woke them up to leave.
but i have to say, listening to them jabber while they were awake was pure comedy. plus, it was fun to get the dish on med school. :]they're lucky yenh and i are so nice and made sure they stayed safe. ha.

although my eyelids were heavy all day, i managed to ship my packages on saturday. only a day late... not too bad. i also learned that there is a automated mail center thing at the main post office here, which is open 24 hours a day. and it's pretty simple to use. the line was shorter and faster, so i tried it out instead of waiting to see a postal worker. hopefully everything went accordingly and my packages will be sent. :]

i didn't find anything warm at j. crew [or anywhere else for that matter] to take to colorado with me. i'm planning to just dress in layers. we'll see how it goes. i managed to do some laundry last night, but was too tired to pack. so i woke up early this morning to shower and pack. i'm thankful that we have an afternoon flight so that i could break my habit of not sleeping at all before flights. ha. as usual, i feel like i forgot several things, but everything on my list is checked off, so hopefully i have enough to make due.

i hope everyone is feeling more prepared for this christmas than i am!
i'll try to check in from colorado. :]
