wow, you guys are really ugly....

So I went out tonight. Nothing new for anyone who knows me. The only thing different was that I was at home, in richmond. Tonight I remembered... again, why this is where I keep coming home to. I'm not sure that it matters much wjere I live concidering my job is to travel. Living it up rocl-star style is how I make my living. Of course I would love to live somewhere like new york or boston. Expenses would be cheaper, as I would be using larger airports as my home base. But still, when the week is done, and its time to come home, Richmond, VA is where I go. So naturally I started out at Capital Ale House here in Midlothian, but some how the night moved to The Republic, downtown. This is a bar I had never been to, but post-smoking ban, its one of the few bars in town that still allows cigarettes. They feature kareoke, which as a rule, I avoid, but somehow they make it work. We drank so so so much. In an effort to not be ordinary I was frantically googl`ing what to drink in the form of a shot. I stumbled across a drink called the Moscow Mule which is simply vodka, ginger ale, and lime juice, and after tweeking it a few times we found our own blend and rename it the Moscpw Moose. 1:45 rolled around, and in typical VA fashion, it was last call, and the lights were on in the rudesf of sorts. Some broad we were talking to and taking shots with decided that would be her chance to say "You guys are really ugly!" First of all, that's my line. Second, bitch give me some money for them damned shots I included you in on. And c. Is it the alcohol, or the crappy lighting that makes people seem less hideous in a bar? None the less, she was right. Her little remark did, however, land her with a larger tab than mine, and I left. Having had a wonderful time, I wound up in my bed, tired, drunk, needing to be at work in a few hours, and contemplating the bar lighting vs. Beer goggles effect on who you assossiate with at a bar... cause baby, you weren't so cute yourself`
