Cinco de Mayo Madness
So there I was, counting down the minutes until 5 o'clock on Cinco de Mayo last Friday when my boss called me over as I walked by her office. She waved at me and said, "Bye, go and enjoy the weekend." Hells yeah! It was just after 4pm. So I shut down my computer, hopped in my car and headed for Lovejoy's. Hadn't been there since the pub crawl for Texas Interhash. Got there at the same time as TAF, and Squeef was already camped out, of course. Soon after, Fuck U Knave, Cornholio, Smells Like Teen Fanny, Swalamander and my friend Duanette joined our table. Had too many Black & Tans and a Jager shot...which was free! Gotta love Marshall. Well, actually, this time I befriended Joe, who was there for Stacy's birthday. Apparently Stacy knows some hashers or something...I forget the story. Damn alcohol killing my memory. Anyway, free Jager shots for Stacy's birthday! Whoo-hoo!

Cute purse Knave!
Anyway, I couldn't stop talking about pizza, so finally we left for some food and a change of scenery. Got a slice at some joint on 6th Street and then headed for Casino el Camino. I had heard about their amazing burgers, but never tried one...guess that will have to wait until next time. I think Doug met us at this bar. He's a friend of Fanny's/Lesley's from North Carolina who just moved to Austin.
I guess we needed another change of scenery because next thing I know we are walking over to Mugshots...which worked out perfectly for me because my car was parked right in front of that bar. [As if I needed to be driving.] I have no idea how long we stayed here...didn't ever seem too crowded because we pretty much had an entire area to ourselves. Duanette came out of her shell and started dancing with Lesley while Knave and Doug kept complaining about all the pictures I was taking. Guess the flash was freaking out their eyes, or something. Silly boys, don't they know better? When I get tipsy, I go camera crazy.
Since Lesley's place was closer than my place, I ended up crashing over there. Did we grab food on the way home? I honestly can't recall. All I know is that I woke up early Saturday morning with a headache and Lesley went and picked up Whataburger for us. What a sweetie.
After chatting for bit and just being bums hanging around the house, we decided it was time to show Doug a little bit of Austin and take him to get a good burger. Off to Crown & Anchor we went. We introduced him to the delicious bacon cheeseburger, sat on the patio and I hoped the beer would help my headache. It did a little.
I finally headed home to shower and was a couch potato all freakin' day long. Caught up on Tivo'd shows and found some movies on HBO. I seriously was a zombie all Saturday afternoon and night. Was too lazy to even go get something to eat for dinner! Who would have thought that a little ol' Friday happy hour would screw up my entire Saturday?
