Two Sides to a Story
The night started out like many weekends before, looking for entertainment provided by the local bar scene. Jason and I were heading a to a bar that would be closing within the coming weeks to meet up with some of my college friends, one who was celebrating his birthday.
Now normally someone celebrating a birthday wouldn't be that odd, but Wreck's birthday was an exception. None of his friends from college had known which day his birthday fell on until recently (Wreck will not even tell people the name given to him at birth). I was told that Wreck was now celebrating his birthday because he realized that when it's your birthday people buy you drinks.
When we arrived at the bar it was much different then I expected. The place was completely packed and looked more like a giant house party in someone's basement then a chill, local bar. When we walked in I was greeted by a pretty large group of people. I think they were pretty surprised I showed up because in the past, in their words, I was always about the BBD (bigger better deal). Jason and I went to the bar and to my surprise he ordered two pitchers.
When we made our trip back from the bar, Jason met a few of the characters I was telling him about earlier (Wreck, Crazy Ted, Sage, Richmond Rob , etc.). I don't think he got the full experience of how "interesting" some of these people are, but I think he got an idea after talking to Wreck for a few minutes.
At about the same time a girl that I had only seen around and had never talked to before asked me if I was still working at the same company I was working for before. I was really confused and I introduced myself. She said she was the ex-girlfriend of Andrew, a guy I lived on the same hallway with my Freshman year of college. Andrew went on to live with my freshman roommate Derrick. Long story short both guys were d-bags. Apparently Andrew use to point me out when they were walking around campus but would never say anything or introduce her to me. Talk about strange. Pardon my incoherent thoughts, but I'm a ramblin' man.
Jason and I were shooting the shit when I saw a girl I met a few weeks ago. I was at Taco Night, at bar a few weeks ago, and I spent most the time making fun of her girly drink selections and when she was having a tough time deciding on a drink I told the waitress she wanted Sex on the Beach. All I said was "Sex on the Beach" and she remembered who I was and she seemed really excited to see me.
Isabella was looking better then I remember and I really had no expectations of seeing her again, so I was a little caught off guard when I saw her at Wreck's birthday. Isabella, her two friends, Jason, and I eventually took over a table. Around the same time Jason started acting more and more ridiculous. It was the most absurd I've seen someone act in a long time. In the words of Jeremy "it was a show".
The rest of the evening was spent hitting on Isabella while Jason was Goose to my Maverick. I give many props to Jason because these girls were hurtings and he was doing an incredible job. Isabella hinted many times that we should hangout again and we eventually exchanged numbers. We managed to make a very entertaining evening out of something that could of been relatively boring: A Gaines family tradition.
