The Nerd's Eye View

This weekend was insane, mainly because I didn't expect it to spiral so rapidly out of control. What I thought was going to be a simple housewarming party in SF where I'd show my face and leave, turned into a long night of drinking and bad British accents. My friend Jason who is both terribly nice and terribly odd had laid out quite a spread and between the booze and the "Greek mashed potatoes" [don't ask] and I found myself slightly tipsy and speaking in a terrible British accent at the prompting of an actual Brit and another tipsy person attempting an accent. Saima would have been proud - mostly - at my efforts. In the end I didn't end up leaving till 3am. A quick call to the frat brothers let me know what hotel they'd crashed at (safety first kids, never drive home drunk, just say no and all that). I took a cab to Union Square and managed to find my way to the hotel in time to pass out before the fellows could. This morning I woke up at 8:30a to get back to my place before my 10:30a soccer game, but my performance there is another story altogether.
