Last night I meet up with Joe, Karen, John, Jay, & Gretchen. It has been almost a year since I saw Karen last and probibly 2-3 years since I last saw Joe.
We meet up at a bar called the Galaway Hooker. John suggested it since it was close for Joe, Karen, Jay & Gretchen. Surprisingly I had actually been there before but didn’t’ realize it until i walked upstairs. We ate and had a few drinks before taking off. It was way too loud for our tastes. We ended up going to a lounge down the block that was quieter where we hung out for several more hours talking and drinking. Overall I had a great time and I think everyone else did too. I found out later that John had to spend a ton of money getting home since it was so late and the train schedule was really bad.
I for one walked out of the bar and hailed a cab. I was home in 15 minutes. It cost like $14 for the cab and tunnel toll but getting home from the east side for me can be really easy sometimes. I was happy to be able to just pass out. I did not keep to my 2 drink self imposed maximum last night, but i was with friends I hadn’t seen in ages so I made an exception!
