A night with the Knight

Wow I’d have to say this is the earliest latest I have posted since it is starting to go on 4 AM. Anyhow though the reason I’m still up at this time is I just got back from a late night hanging out with The Knight.

We started out the night, after dropping off my sister with Rook, by going to see the new Terminator movie and I must say I’m impressed. I loved the fact that they were using stuff like fighter jets, helicopters and what not because it makes sense. In all the other Terminator movies and the show, which will be sorely missed, they never show the resistance using any vehicles other than a submarine in the future. The other cool thing about the movie was that they sprinkled in little things for the fan boys.

After the movie we went to check out a local sports bar called Overtime to try and do some karaoke, however by the time we got there they had finished hosting the karaoke and were just playing music. That was fine for a little bit. There were few girls dancing around but considering the type guys they were hanging out with, a couple of guys that thought they were gangsters complete with low pants and ball cap on weird, they were not my type and was paying more attention to the other room that had more possibilities. Heck where we sat we didn’t get the normal waitress; the normal waitresses were wearing black ball caps, white tank tops, tight black shorts, black socks, and white shoes while ours waitress had on jeans and an Indians jersey (I kinda felt gyped). Well anyhow while we were there the music they played actually devolved. They started out playing 311 and within about 5 songs went to playing some poor excuse for a rap song that talked about nothing other than “booty shakin’” so when the Knight yelled over the music if I wanted to go get something to eat I quickly said yes.

So from there we went to Denny’s mainly because it was going on 2 in the morning and nothing else is open. After we were seated our waitress came up to us for our drink orders and I swear she had a Charisma of about 19 or20. We had various discussions ranging from Midsummers to comic books (man I love being a geek). Well anyhow it was here that I learned something I never knew, people in about their 60’s are funny when they are drunk. It was funny because they were acting like they were about 30 years younger. This one lady was so drunk she was flirting with a guy in another booth and even went to sit next to him for a few minutes. Then another more sober elder lady was complaining to a pair of cops that were trying to leave about people in some bar selling alcohol to drunken people. We ended up leaving at this time and so were the poor officers. I could tell that they took the ladies compliant lightly. After this we just ended the night.

The funny thing is I tried to start this blog at 4 AM but was so tired I laid back onto my bed after doing a few of these “iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii” and got back up to continue it at about 9 AM which is why I’m so glad that I do post early in the morning otherwise I would’ve been out of this competition long ago.

Random Bachelor Dare Card of the Day: “Circulate the bar and offer to trade piggyback rides for free drinks. (If a guy wants a ride, he better make it a double.)

Wow that sounds like a quick way to get drunk for free, although I may have to limit myself with it due to my back not being the best.
