The rest of the week was emotionally draining, but I won't get into that because it's not quite over. That, along with getting approximately 4 hours of sleep a night, every night, and quitting smoking has turned me into a grumpy pants.
I need a nap.
I had tons of fun. Check out the pics.

Life saver.
This is what's currently keeping me awake. Highly caffeinated gum from Japan. Getting 4 hours of sleep a night for the past week straight is starting to take it's toll.

Forum Parking Lot Dance Party.
Look at how much fun we are. Parking lot dance parties, followed by full contact pavement nerf football. Who has it better than us?
iTwitch.
I twitch. Everytime I drift into slumber, my body makes an alarming jerking movement. Here is something I just read about it:
Sleep starts
One moment you’re drifting off to la-la land, and the next instant—whoa!—you’re dropping off a cliff. Sleep experts believe the brain sometimes gets the wrong message from the body during the transition into sleep, and associates the lack of muscle tension with being in midair. Arms and legs then jerk suddenly as they would to break a fall. Not yet realizing the body is simply at rest, the brain also instantaneously conjures a story to account for the sudden jump, and that’s why we picture ourselves falling, slipping or missing a stair.
I'm not sure if I'll have time to blog about this weekend just yet, but brace yourself. My life is completely amazing right now. I'm having so much fun. Stay tuned.

Weekend in Pictures.
It was Jen's Birthday weekend...
We started out at the pub Friday night.
Had a couple Birthday shots.
Began to get tipsy.
Drank more, hence the blurriness.
Jumped in a van with a bunch of boys, and road beer.
Let boys buy us a few too many shots of tequila.
Danced like lunatics (I had to be drunk, I danced all night in heals!!).
Watched and listened to South Shore Movement, followed by DJ Nick Pepe.
Closed the Velvet Lounge. Got home at 5:30am...And the arrival is another story which may or may not be told at a later time...
Oh!! And Kate and Melissa came out!
On to Saturday.
Jen and I both got about 3 hours of sleep. We woke up and got ready for our big party Saturday night.
We had a DJ (or 3), and lots of good old friends came out. I even got to have a little art discussion there on the couch. I love putting my degree to use.
The party was awesome. I love my friends. At around 1 am I thought I was a magician and pulled a disappearing act. I really just needed to get to bed. So tired. Tired, and...
