My good friend Brian had his birthday on Wednesday, aka International Talk Like a Pirate Day.  I braided crap into his incredibly lustrous locks and he seemed to have a grand time buckling swashes and buccaneering.  He really is hilariously good at the pirate-speech thing.  I always run out of Arrrrrs and get self-conscious.

He turned the glorious age of 26, or 42 by a pirate's reckoning.  That is, 26 is 42 in a base 6 system.  Hilarity ensues.

We threw him a party at my new place, with Jello shots and cupcakes abounding.  It was a rollicking good time, especially when Ferg passed out at like 9pm after smashing his face into all the girl chests he could find.  He woke up some hours later and eventually made it home, so that was most excellent.  Lots of people showed up that I hadn't seen in a while, it was nice to have that.

Yeah, if this Xanga entry seems dry it's because I'm at work and exhausted.   Caught a lovely head cold from my new beau so I'm kind of foggy at the moment. 

We had a good time, there was laughter and grins and that's what we needed.  Pictures will go up on Facebook sometime soonish :p

My only issue with the evening was a guy we met in Boulder (who seemed totally cool) and invited.  He showed up already completely plastered and proceeded to push his face waaaaaay too close to mine when he was talking to me.  And there were hands on my knee and one tried to go up my shirt.  I was definitely less than comfortable by the time Dan got back from Denver.

Oh yeah, Goodwin, Tony, Nick, and Dan left to longboard in the Tech center for a while.  Wish I could have gone but I had to stay and host, which kind of sucked.  Especially when Boulder-guy started his thing and I didn't have someone to blatantly hold on to.  I feel like I'm making too large of a deal out of it...but it really did bug the crap out of me.  Even if I wasn't already in a relationship, having a fun conversation with someone doesn't give them leave to start getting grabby.

Anyway, today should be a fun conglomeration of cleaning. sleeping, and homeworking.  I'll see if I can't post those pictures soon and stick the best ones here.
