Get crunked up.

So it took me almost an hour to read all the LJ posts from the weekend, but I felt proud of our little survey! Perhaps it shall be circulated widely....

I'm going to work backwards in detailing my weekend. Why? Well, you shall find out. First of all I woke up this morning and I was totally exhausted and still high. Damn. Yesterday I went to the Lambda Launch, helped with registration, enjoyed the cruise, helped them take down the banners, and by 5 pm our help was no longer needed so I left with the interns (and my friend De___) and we went back to my house where we watched Sex & the City, Queer as Folk, and got pretty fcking wrecked. I don't smoke up very often (couple times a year) and when I do I tend to overdo it, only because I have the ability to smoke a lot and it doesnt increase my highness -- it only increases the longevity of it. I really need to remember this. So basically, it's been about 12 hours since I took a hit, and i'm feeling very comfortably right now, so to speak. Luckily, it's been a very good high, and I've enjoyed just being in my head. sometimes I smoke isht and get this weird specific type of paranoia -- where I'm always trying to figure out where people are around me and make sure that everyone's there. So I'll totally spend 10 minutes doing a head count over and over again, making sure no one left the room. Then sometimes people leave the room and I notice it, but forget, then they come back in and I freak out and start the head count again. Hmm. But that's about the only side effect I have while high, and it's usually failry mild. So yeah, yesterday was good.

On Saturday I spent 4 hours with Damon trying to find the Gorillaz album. Everyone was out of except one store which want 16 dollars for it and I just could justify it. Don't ask me why. Because I spent that much money on other albums. Including the new Daft Punk on vinyl. It rocks. So with my fun new purchases I was ready to take on the house party. Perhaps I should also mention that on Saturday it was in the upper 90's and extremely humid. It sucked. And the apartment with the party did have a/c, but I set up my decks near a window and a fan and it was all good. I had a lot of fun, and the party was small and cool, and I wasn't feeling very social which is perfect for DJing because you can be in the corner by yourself and you end up looking cool instead of like a wallflower. The party ended early -- around 12:30 or 1, my friend Dan drove my stuff home and in exchange we went to Big Chicks and I bought him a drink. This bar is my new favorite gay establishment, because on the weekends it's packed with interesting boys -- not the cookie-cutter gym boys from down in Lakeview. So we just people watched and drank orange juice and danced a little. I had a great time with him and I even stayed behind a bit longer by myself and scoped out some boys. It's fun playing the little eye contact/checkin out game.

On Friday night, I got home after work, and chatted for about an hour with my friend Me___ out in Arizona, which was cool because we hadn't "talked" in a really long time. We've been keeping up via e-mail, but she was tripping when she heard my voice, because its been almost a year since she heard it. I went to bed early, but got awakened at midnight because Melanie called. We chatted for about half an hour (yay!) and then I couldn't go back to sleep, so I stayed up until 2 am finishing the book "Mysterious Skin".

So that was my weekend in reverse. My friend just sent me a pic from the party on Saturday, so i'm going to try and post it next....
