BFF Visit: Day Two

Erca Whale and I got up and out of the apartment RIDICULOUSLY late this day. We didn't get a move on until 3PM. We went to Chinatown so Erc could buy some shirts. Because of the time, on the train ride there, there were tons of kids/pre-teens around. All of a sudden one of them near us smelled her friend and said "You smell like straight-up pussy!" Erca Whale and Tanya Beluga were DYING. I laughed so hard. I dunno why. It was hilarious to us.

When we set foot onto the smelly streets that are Chinatown, I instantly remembered how much I love to haggle. I bought a ton of worthless shit that I don't really need, but felt justified in buying it because I had haggled the prices so low. At one point I haggled a figurine of a giraffe (don't ask) down to $5 and then paid with a $20. The vendor got all pissy, "You said you didn't have that much money." "No," I retorted, "I said I WOULDN'T spend much money on THAT." Man, I'm more and more like my dad. I'm even getting a thick moustache.

Erc and I ate at a Vietnamese restaurant that I like to frequent. After that we went back to the apartment and got ready to meet up with some other kids. Ari, plus the two friends she had in town (which one of them, crazily enough, I had a class with back in SB), Jeremy and my sister. We were all going to Sweet (a comedy show I go to lots). The show was fun. I ran into some comedy friends.

Afterwards, Jeremy, Erc and I all went to get a slice. The pizza dude was the meanest human being on the planet. I don't know what his deal was but he was just a rude sonofabitch. Whatever. When I meet people that mean, I try and give them the benefit of the doubt that they're just having a bad day. So, I tried talking to him a little and he seemed alright, but still. Kind of a dick.

Jeremy went back to Willy B while Erca Whale and I made our way to the Essex Ale House. Apparently they had just opened under new management and the bartender was nice, but really bad at pouring beers. Also, she didn't know any of the prices of anything - even though they were clearly written on the wall. The jukebox kind of sucked, but we played it anyway, and we were just about the only people there...

I kept taking pictures of what I'd look like with a beard/mustache, but I just looked like I had on a chin strap:

Here's Erc working the jukebox...
Anyway, after that we went back to Piano's for some serious Guitar Hero competition. (The first time I went was during Bee's visit). It was way fun. To continue the tradition Jeremy and I set the first time, I would sporadically request which song to play next by obnoxiously yelling "Holy Diver! Play Holy Diver!"

Finally, the MC yelled, "Who are you Ronnie Dio's sister?" I laughed and clapped (like a little retard) and then he said "C'mon, Ronnie Dio's sister. Come play 'Holy Diver.'" I said something to the effect of "Only if I play you," and he responded with "NO! I'LL play YOU." What a bad ass answer.

So, he and I played. I was fairly awful. It was the first time I had ever played. Erca Whale and Tanya Beluga battled; we were both bad. Erc took some pictures of me having fun (but sucking terribly) against the MC - I forget his name. I should go back and challenge him next Tuesday...

Afterwards, we made our way back to my apartment to sleep. I forced Erica to sleep in my bed with me and then we cracked up about how fake gay we are, but how far apart we actually slept in the bed. I love that little monkey.
