Well it's going on 1pm and I just got out of bed. I didn't get home until 4am! However...I had a really good time.
So we left here at 5:30 to go to Irwin, which is just outside of Monroeville, where Jenni and Kevin live. They have a townhouse with a garage, lucky! Got to see some of Kevin's artwork, and meet their dog Charlie. Started the night there with a shot of vodka...
We all crammed into Clinton's truck, 4 of us in the backseat, and went to Pittsburgh, which should have taken about 20 minutes, but there was some traffic, and Pittsburgh...wow. You can't drive anywhere in the city in a straight shot. When you get off the freeway, you drive way up and out of your way to the right, and then shoot over the river to get to the other side. It's a lot of out of the way driving. I'm so glad my parents let me borrow Cliff because I need to go to the city to shop for a winter coat and I would get so lost by myself!
We went to Carson street, which has a bunch of bars and places to eat. Went to this place called the City Grill. Really small, but good atmosphere and good food. I had the best clam chowder there, mmmm. We left there around 10 and went to this place called the Library. It was 2 stories, and we went upstairs and outside, which was like sitting in an atrium. The menus are pasted into books, and we had a waitress with a great personality. So we drank there until 2am. During that time, I just really enjoyed myself and everyone's company. I really like spending time with Jenni and Kevin, and Kevin is always really chatty with me. Like we took a group picture, (which I'll try to upload soon) but the background was the green wall we were sitting by, and Kevin said we probably look like we're practicing to be weather people on the green screens. He and I had a really good laugh over that and everyone else was like, what did we miss? Oh yeah, it was Kevin's 30th birthday, so that was the occassion.
Leaving the Library, we experienced some interesting things. They sell pizza on the street, $1 a slice, and everyone is walking down the street eating pizza at 2am. Then when we were trying to get out of there, we found where everyone hangs out on that street. It was crazy! No place to walk because there were so many people. However...the people there...are not so attractive. I'm so doomed to be single.
Needless to say, I got home at 4am, and I'm just getting going now. I need to do laundry today, and do some grocery shopping. If I do homework today I'll be lucky. Oh no wait...I HAVE to...I have to write up the stats results. Between me, Kendra and Jason yesterday, we spent most of the day on our stats homework, came up with 4 different answers...and finally decided to go with one that basically means we did this for no reason because it is interpreted as nothing. I have to write a lambda poem still too, because it's due by 9am tomorrow. Fun stuff. I should attempt to get moving and I'll try to upload the pictures later.
