good morning, hangover

[synapticjava]

went out last night with Arben and Luther and Tony and Brian and their friend David.

it was $6 pitchers and $8 martinis at crew.

do I have to say anything else?

on the upside - I have a date with David this week, and a job interview at crew next week.

Wait.
You're saying a martini - a *glass* of martini - cost eight bucks???

OMFG. That's...insane.

Tell me it was a pitcher of martini or something because...EIGHT BUCKS FOR ONE DRINK???

*flails*

Ay! I forgot how expensive it was to drink in Chicago!

Haven't read the Harper's article ref'd in the essay, but it sounds like he could be talking about your creative writing "teacher."

Usually martini's - depending on which one - are around 10. Yes, for one drink. I know, it's crazy isn't?

Ah, city life.

Dude, it's completely fucked. What a total waste of money. You could *buy* martini stuff for eight bucks and have - however many a bottle makes.

Sheesh.

*so not cut out for the drinking life*

Hah. And just think, I get discounts for being "industry."

lol.
