Woke up this morning to Lois's alarm, and feeling like my brain had grown a few sizes too large in my sleep. Managed to rally for breakfast, then back to bed for a bit. Attempted to make a trip to Manly with Carl, but my late start in the day resulted in me missing the train. Returned home after meandering through the mall, and broke in through the window, as I haven't seen my keys in several days. Bummed around the rest of the day, reading a bit here, listening to music a bit there.
Tonight was the celebration for the newly certified instructors at the Intersection. Despite losing an ear there only a week ago, made the journey to Ramsgate to join the celebrations. Managed to catch the train to Kogarah this time, and wound up in what may have been Little China. After walking a mile in the wrong direction, into a neighborhood that was probably dangerous for someone with a pretty face like mine, I called a cab and arrived without incident. Not surprisingly, everyone was fairly smashed by the time I showed up. Or at least everyone was drinking, and Carl and Joe were pretty smashed. As always, a good time. Managed to choke down a Toohey's or two, and joined everyone in having a Jägerbomb. After last night, I figured it best to be responsible and limit myself.
Eventually, the Intersection couldn't hold our attention anymore, so we headed to Northies. In spectacular form as always, the Northies bouncers refused to let Joe in, and as it was kinda his night to shine, we joined him outside. Northies isn't even that cool anyways.
The wind taken out of our sails, we decided to call it a night at 8:30. I sat in my room for a good hour deciding whether or not to rally, and go back to Northies solo. But sensibility won out, and I'll be going to bed after this is posted. I figure the last thing my ear needs at the moment is some deafening house music. Next weekend, scantily clad women of Northies, next weekend.
Yours in Getting Too Old for This,
Robert
p.s. I found my keys! So those of you worrying that I'd turn to a life of crime after having to break into my own room can now sleep soundly.
