Happy Hangover

Man. I feel like I haven't hung with Ali forever and ever. I miss her so much! When you get into a new relationship it's easy to forget how crucial girl laughs are to the psyche.  We went out last night and had the best time y'all. One thing I love about NYC, there's no dead night out there, so going for a cocktail mid-week doesn't automatically make you feel like a total alky street person. I mean if I went to a bar in my hometown on a Wednesday, it'd be me and one guy wearing overalls and no shirt. Know what I'm saying?


So anyway, we hit Waverly and had a great time, even though it was clearly tragic tourist night. But hey, tourists have better manners than B list celebs, which really comes in handy when it's crowded and you have to get to the bathroom in a hurry. And anyway, we weren't exactly trolling for dudes.

It was great to catch up. I guess Ali's relationship is still rockin, so yay. But she's actually kind of worried about work right now. I guess since she's been promoted so many times in the past few years, her salary is nice and juicy, making her a prime target for layoffs if corporate should ever ogle payroll (which I'm guessing they do nightly). So we slurringly pledged to one another to become even more indispensable at work no matter what it takes this year (pinky swear, drool, stumble, hiccup).

On a side note—there were two Englishmen buying us drinks all night. They must have been total masochists because we 100% ignored them the entire time. I know that sounds mean but honey, one of them looked like he had a steak between his teeth and the other one might have been HIS dad! Some people should just never be encouraged.
