thank goodness for responsible people

Thursday's: until university, were just days that often dragged on as they were the second last day before the weekend. University has changed this.

Thursday has become one of the most debaucherous nights of the week and I am not sure when/why this change occured. Perhaps the low drink price (almost half of the price on the weekend), or the fact that their are rarely lines (minus Jack's) on London's beloved Richmond St. Regardless, Thursday's happen and are meant to be taken advantage of...

and last night they were.

I started off with original plans of heading to res for a pre-drink (I was late, missed the people, and ended up going with my double booked plans). So there I was in a house party discussing strategies of this homecoming weekend with my dear friend (perhaps I will leave her anonymous in this blog, but an amazing friend indeed).

The conclusion was that last night was "her night" and I would have saturday night as "my night" and this meant if it was "your night" you misbehaved and the other person watched/aided you when needed... for some reason the division of nights sparked a reason to power drink and subsequentially taking over the other persons night, my apologies.

Luckily though, my friend was there to say "are you ready to leave?" and "of course we are going to Sammy's Souvlaki", which to a drunk man is the sweetest thing you can hear.

After discussing the possibility of heading back to the par, hoovering a poutine, fry and souvlaki (for two people) we called it a night, redivised the weekends "nights", and said farewell.

This morning I was laughing at myself for
a) stealing the night
b) getting ridiculous after planning to stay remotely sober
c) how my friend turned into the responsible one and kept a watchful eye out for myself

And as much as I normally criticize the sober "watcher" in the bar, I rarely give credit to their aid when it is most needed, so I say thank you to her and to any others who have come to the aid of the intoxicated Rob Stewart...
