hmm, pirate party....not what i expected...for all the hype, and the success of the other events...this one (in my own opinion) blew chunks...Argh! you say? i know i was...out of frustration, and no, not in that way...i wasn't the only one that thought so either, i knew many that decided to "abandon ship"and to quote one of my lady friends, "this party is so ghey!"i wasn't able to because i didn't go stag...well, i did and i didn't...i took a friend of a friend since i didn't want the ticket to go to waste...surprisingly, she was actually looking for me when i did my disappearing act...i just thought i'd leave her with her best friend, i guess i was wrong...lines everywhere, super long, drinks, very overpriced and watered-down, and the music...well what can i say? i'm not a Britney Spears fan (well, maybe just her looks, not her music)...and i was often overhearing others saying that they will never go to another Brotherhood party again...that's where i stepped in and tried to change their minds...not everyone can be happy, we all have our good days, and our bad days...with that in mind...now i will at least get on to the good things that happened today...the pre-flight party across the street at the Holiday Inn...met a bunch of cool people who gave me drinks and got me a good buzz before the party started...got to spend lots of time chatting away with friends in line after line, and way in the back away from the bad music...lots of good conversations...costumes...totally dug the costumes i saw, took a few pics, shoulda taken more...i got lots of props for my outfit, many, many thanx go out to those that liked it, especially those that recognized who the hell i was...then there was the after-party dinner at Denny's...again, good conversations with friends, good and happy times freaking out the customers with our various costumes...we had Scorpion, a pimp, a mobster, a doctor, and of course, a pirate...all in all, i'd say that my evening was split down the middle...basically a draw, lol...i'll have to see how this new year's eve party goes...
