A Very Medicinal Evening

Liu's here and I'm very happy b/c I haven't seen her in a whole year! Last night when she got here we went out and ate a lot of sushi. We had many badly needed theraputic talks while taking our "medicine." Just like old times!!! After we were thoroughly messed up we sang some karaoke at my place which reinvigorated us(along with the whisky) enough to be able to venture 50 feet from my apartment to Cheers. Once there, we were kind of anti-social for a while b/c I was still feeling weird from last week. A few drinks got me over that quickly though, and then FightingMensch and PumpedUp arrived with an entourage including his brother, Kevin and a nameless friend. After lots more drinks we left with them to FightingMensch's apartment. The apartment was very long and decorated in a contemporary style. His bed was on some strange loft. FightingMensch was totally beaten up with a black eye, bloody eyeball and stitches. He claims to have fallen while making his bed. The boys were watching "Casino" and PumpedUp made us some drink with Stoly-Vanilla and an orange-gatorade substance. While Liu and I were talking closely, the boys asked us if we were making out. Liu walked in on Kevin while he was on the toilet and got really embarassed. He didn't seem to mind though. As FightingMensch explained, "He just got back from Iraq." Shortly enough PumpedUp left with the only other girl and the rest of us headed down to "Off the Wagon" which was really weird for me b/c it was the site of my first hook up with Adam in the fall of 1998. In the cab FightingMensch was saying funny things and was self-conscious about his interior decorating scheme. Anyway, once there we were faced with a horde of creepy young horny boys. It was okay enough as long as they were buying us drinks. FightingMensch found some girls and were glad to see it. Later though, I asked him to get some weird guy w/a hat off our back and his brother came to our rescue looking for a fight with the guy. We were told his brother had just gotten 13 stitches removed that day...ripping them out himself. Anyway, Liu had a sound enough mind to tell Kevin to back down and to tell me that it was time to go. Of course I wanted to call Narc, and did so, but hope it wasn't too embarassing... Oh well, I'll have to just console myself with Hammer's naturlich principle. Liu is so not so enamored with that idea, but whatever... Anyway, that's all I remember so the story stops here. This morning we went to pad our stomachs at "Comfort Diner" and I was annoyed at the wait staff b/c they were rushing us out of our table. I need water now so I will go...
