Oh my gosh... you WALKED home in that weather, drunk, from the Regal Beagle? That's iNSanE!
I got a ride home from Leslie's... yay ride!
See, I would have gone back to the Regal Beagle and waited for a cab, even if I had to wait 2 hours.
The notion that Casey is in a gang, and that there are gangs (complete with signs) on the West Side, is hilarious!
That's too bad you didn't go to Lola's... it was so much fun last year watching all the hot straight boys dance and torment me!
You obviously need to train for the 12 Bars much like for your half-marathons. :)

You've reminded me that I really need to learn how to drink! I'm a journalist, for cryin' out loud, and I never really got into the whole drinking scene. This looks like too much fun!
Tanya sent me over to introduce myself. I'm glad she did: your blog as a complete hoot, and I look forward to reading more.

@Kalev - Clearly, I'm not sufficiently trained! And I must be getting old, as the warmth and comfort of my bed seemed so appealing last night. Would you really wait two hours (or more, as I imagine the cab scene would only get worse as the night wore on) in a restaurant by yourself rather than walk for one hour? Come to think of it, I should have ran home and called it a half marathon training run!
@Carmi - Welcome to my blog! You've arrived during on of my best posts of the year, so I hope that my other posts measure up!

:) Darlin' - I totally enjoyed your tweets yesterday... I absolutely must be invited next year! (or, I'll just steal the idea and you have to come twice! LOL)
Thanks for the giggles -- I loved the photos.
ps: I sent myself!

Hooray for the "12 bars" report! I am not sure of which activity I am more jealous: your ability to drink Amaretto Sours (yum! Some day I will be able to have ethanol again) or your ability to take a bus (even one that is stuck). Stupid, stupid transit strike.

@Beth I would so NEVER walk an HOUR, drunk, in the weather we had Saturday night--especially since I was most definitely not dressed for it and I'm assuming you weren't either. Weren't there any 12 Bar-ers left at the Regal Beagle? They all were outside waiting in line for Lola?
I'm just glad you got home okay.

@Kalev - You know what happens when you ASSume, right? Even before the snow, it was mofo cold out on Saturday and since 12 Bars involves so much walking from bar to bar I had my winter jacket, mitts and hat. So I was well equipped for the weather.
As for the other 12 Bar-ers, I think there were a few left at RB, but no one who would stick around for 2 hours!
