Whirlwind Adventures

It's been a while since I've made a proper post, so I thought I would inform you of all the whirlwind adventures that I (and PinkPolish) have embarked on.

PinkPolish already explained to you about Greek Town which was such an awesome time! The music was good, the atmosphere was rocking, but the food royally sucked. It had no flavour to it, and it was waaaaay too over-priced. On the other hand, the drinks were really good, but that can also be a bad thing. When you can swig something back in one sip, that's gotta tell you something. Anywho, we ended up calling it a pretty early night, but it was a good one nonetheless.

Moving away from the weekend to the workweek...I had a few encounters with Mr.Wonderful. A few times I was able to talk to him, but others I just sat there and did nothing. (I also bought a beautiful pair of wedge sandals over the duration of the week. They are sooo pretty!) On Friday I had made plans with PinkPolish, ITGirl, and another male friend which I will not name at this time to head out to Little Italy. I thought it would be the perfect time to invite Mr. Wonderful out too.

So I gathered whatever balls I had and tried approaching him, but he was always with people, so I was never able to actually ask him. What I ended up doing was going to WelcomeDeskGirl, and she emailed him on behalf of PinkPolish asking him to come out. Since PP and he barely spoke in the class they had together, he was a little shocked that she would invite him out. He finally figured out that it was me that wanted him to come out. Yadi yadi yada, PP saved my ass and he ended up coming out.

Little Italy turned out to be okay. The restaurant wasn't that bad, the Irish pub was boring, and the other place we went to for drinks sucked. $14 for a martini? I don't think so. The night went from alright to bad when the waitor from the place we went to in Greek Town showed up. But I'll let PP tell you guys about that because only she can really put it into words. All I can say about it...he was a metro-sexual who looks like a pervert and a pansey.

On the way home, PP, Mr.Wonderful, and I all had to pee. So, we stopped in a parking lot and Mr.W relieved himself. PP and I held it in until we got to his apartment and peed. Oh dear God, I will never live in that apartment building. Now I know what an apartment shared by 2/3 guys looks like. It was absolutely vile in the washroom. I had to hold my breath the entire time. Well, at least there was toilet paper. I went into the washroom first since I had to go realy badly, then PP went. While she was in there, Mr.W showed me the view from his apartment. It was quite nice, a better smell than the apartment itself, and you could also see campus from there. Once PP was done, we left. We headed towards the elevators, and when we pushed the button to go down, it made a weird noise, so we got out of the elevator and stepped into another one instead because, well, let's face it, I'm not about to die in an elevator. We reached the first floor, bumped into some of his roommates, and then realized that we forgot the car keys in his apartment. So here we are calling him asking to bring down to the keys. (It was such a good thing that I took his number down that night.)

One realization I had that night: Mr.Wonderful isn't really wonderful, he's...for lack of a better word, Mr.UN-Wonderful.

After relieving our bladders, we got back on the road, except I wasn't completely relieved. I still had to go...again. So PP gunned it on the highway and got me home in record time.

Last night, I watched two movies, She's the man, which was amazingly funny, ya'll should definately check it out, and 8 Below (mmm Paul Walker is soo hot!), which was another amazing movie! And today, I plan on doing some reading and spending a bit of quality time with my nephews.

And the countdown begins. Only 11 days left 'til our great escape to New York!
