Guerrilla Girls, Whiskey and a black out

So, the final days of the Gender and Arts Conference are finally over. It was a wild ride, but we made it. Yesterday I was there from about 8am to about 10 pm. Whew. Dollface Nola, my partner in crime yesterday, put stuff away, hauled things to and fro, and basically worked are little fannies off. But the funnest parts came when I went to her pad for a visit, went to eat Sushi with her b-friend and the girl staying with her for the conference. This girl was eerily perceptive, and when she spoke, sounded like she had been smoking pot FOR DAYS. In addition, she ordered me Sake (without asking) and I swear she was trying to get me drunk. Though I'm A OKAY with the lesbian lifestyle, I just don't happen to swing that way. But I don't blame her for finding me attractive. I mean, hello. Then, it was off to the Guerrilla Girls performance where there was a campus wide BLACKOUT and it was scary wary, and it was like something out of Resident Evil, and I was all ready to fight the evil zombie empire that was ascending on our civilization. But about 30 minutes later, power was restored, and the GG's went on as planned. The performance was okay, I thought it would be a bit more involved for 5 grand, but hey, they made good feminist points. Dollface Nola's b-friend and I had a bit of a debate, but it was healthy. Then, it was off to enjoy wine at Dollface Nola's, and then off to McCool's for a drink of whiskey and coconut rum and diet coke. Needless to say, after the sake and wine, I was making EVERYBODY laugh (probably AT me, not WITH me, but hey, whatever you know?).

Anyhoo, it was a stellar night, and one that should be repeated often. Today was spent gardening. Partner and I spent moolah on flowers for the front yard, mowed, planted, and made things oh so pretty.

I am pretty tired, and had a wicked headache this morning, but a fab time. Now it's time to get back to the real world, grade papers, do research, and begin again. Grrrrr. Aaaarrrggghhh.
