The Unplanned Afterparty

I’ve spent the last two evenings at Local’s Only, showing support for TWF & Tyler. Thursday’s show was decent, but for some reason their time was cut short, so I didn’t get to hear my fave songs. But the night held other surprises. Tyler got a surprise visitor from Florida, a girl he’d met on vacation a few weeks prior. Pretty crazy. Needless to say, he called in sick the next morning.
So last night’s show was perfect. I got to hear my two requested songs back to back, The Rain & Simple Man. (You can hear them in facebook). So many people showed up. It was like we had the venue all to ourselves, especially once Tyler’s set was over. We basically had a party there and closed the place down. It was a great time. I went with the Katies & Erin aka KKEM_07A01, the project number for our singles group. We’re the final 4 singles left in the office. So yeah, I think it was 3ish when we left Local’s Only and headed to Dora’s where we continued the party til after 4:30. Let me just say. We are all way too old for this kind of fun.
I’m too lazy to type all the stories in detail, so here’s the highlight reel for the sake of recording history:
- (Don to Erin, in reference to her 5’ height) “It’s like you’re not even a real person. You should carry a bat around work so I can take you seriously.” (me) “That would just make me wonder if it were little league season” (it was my big joke of the night. it killed.)
- “Amazon Katie”
- Once in a lifetime live performance of “Breadstix in America” with Tyler & Andy
- “You’re my best friend that’s a boy.” - the text I was warned not to send
- Dancing with Dora - undiscovered rockettes
- “Mindy, I’ve never seen you smile so much.”
- “Mindy, two people at work scare me. The CEO & you.”
- Realizing my lens cap was missing when I got to the car and returning to an already locked bar. KT googled the number and called in a request to let us in. I thanked the man for saving me $10, and returned to the car to announce the bartender was in love with me
- Garth Brooks’ Shameless - dart microphones
- “I’m the best DJ EVER!!!”
- “If the WNFL existed, do you think they’d use a smaller football?”
- Garth Brooks kept us out an extra 20 minutes
- Shots of “truth serum” with Dora
Needless to say, I crashed at Katie’s and my poor little dogs did not appreciate that when I got home at noon today. I have photos up in facebook. I decided that people might kill me if I posted them to the entire internet world.
