so like yeah

so like i cancelled my ticket to tobago. but its good for a year, so even though i wont be going to "sunday school" (tasha is supposed to explain that one to me) for new years, i might be able to go some other time.

tonight i went to zen.
going out with your older brother is good because then someone else is responsible besides you. this is the first time in aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaages that i got officially inebriated. i am too old to waste my time doing the falling down stumble-drunk business. but my teeth and lips were definitely numb tonight. that is how i know that i am sitting squarely on my drunk-y threshold.
jeetz, esh, christine, you'll all be pleased to know that i consumed 2 of your gin, vodka, gingerale concoctions. that was it for the night. that was followed by a glass of water and ice and some fried chicken outside after the club.

thank goodness for experimentation at earlier ages. last time i went to a club, i was designated driver. i only had... 3? sips of that crazy mix because i know gin is a wipeout alcohol. tonight...those two... i was coasting.
but yeah. tonight was ok because tonight i was not the DD or the DM (designated mom... or is it self-appointed mom?? whatever).

BUT, i dont go wilin' out cus i'm still with my older brother. and despite our interesting relationship, all the protectiveness is still there. so when i'm with him i NEVER dance with anyone. that's just the way it seems to work out.

tonight was my first ever trip to zen. it was not the life-altering event that i expected it to be. it was a nice venue though. much more coloured and younger than 51 Degrees. and patrice roberts and zan showed up for a mini performance. the music is better at 51 though.

joke of jokes:
i turn my head to look at his friend and see 2 people from churchill. CHURCHILL PEEPS IN TRINIDAD!!! WHO KNEW?!? plus, they're in carenage which is 20ish mins away from me. crystal and marvin.
marvin reminds me so much of mr.heavens and his twin, the facilitator. what is it with short guys and dressing dapper? lol marvin wasn't the only one of these that i saw. there was a next dude too dressed all nice... and short...
and why do they all like house music??? lol! that's what cinched the resemblance for me.

he's actually my height, but i had on my platform wedges tonight. an extra 6 inches baby! i'm a giant! Jordi look out!! we were chatting right before i left and i had to keep leaning down.

i'm writing a blog because my feets are still throbbing so i wouldn't be able to sleep anyway even though its almost 5 am (TT clubs go up to 6am). i now know that those shoes only have a 3 hour standing limit. life is a learning experience.

the nice thing was that i didn't see any of the students there. that doesn't mean there weren't any... it just means that i didn't see them. however, i dressed almost prudishly just in case and i was very well-behaved, so i'm not concerned.

this wasn't tobago, but it was grrrrrrrrrrrrreat.

tobago is going to have to wait again...
