I could write a blog. I have thoughts.

Life at the library, adventures with friends and other hysterics...

"You want to aim for these numbers here." "I'm just gonna aim for the board."

I want to rock and roll all night, and part of every day.

I am seriously deliriously happy.

Which for me means that something is about to go terribly wrong.

Lately I've been all headspace but this weekend we went out on the town to celebrate my brother-in-law's 40th birthday.

Met up for dinner around 6 and after that we just walked around the old market district until around midnight.

There were many shenanigans and hijinks involved, most of which I will not repeat for fear of retribution.

I don't drink very often. It's not like I have anything against it, I just don't like the taste of beer and I work almost every day so it's not like I can go out on the town every night.

I did, however, partake last night as it was a celebration. But I did not partake as much as some people.

But I learned something about myself, and this was completely unknown to me, apparently I'm actually good at darts.

And the boyfriend's not bad either.

We have decided - well, I decided and he agreed cause he was very agreeable at that moment, as mentioned I did not partake as much as others - that when we get married we're going to have a dart board, get really good and then go around to bars and challenge people to darts and take all their money.

We played a couple games as partners but I mostly played with Marty aka the brother-in-law's best friend. He was pretty good, hit a double bullseye. I hit two by the end of the night.

Think my brother-in-law and I were the only ones who played every game. I beat my brother and my sister (who said the title quote).

Though my sister-in-law beat me twice. So we said she was better than her husband. He didn't like that.

I don't think I've laughed that hard or had that much fun in months.

The boyfriend and I have been together for a year and a half now and it's become a subconscious thing that I just put my hand on his leg. My brother is overprotective so he kept repeating "not my baby sister!" Immediately following the first time everyone put their hand on my leg.

It was just goofy stuff like that and then the darts, I think that was my favorite part.

By the end of the night we had went to three bars - each with very unique decor except they all seemed to have some sort of stained glass included. Then we walked back to the hotel where we jammed out in my sister's suite.

It was niiiiiice.

Like bigger than my apartment nice.

With a hot tub and all that.

Thinking about looking at electronic dart boards online. Hmmm....

Santa list?

Alright, I'm gonna crash. It's back to work tomorrow.

I Wanna Rock and Roll All Night - Kiss

Public Transportation is Sexy.

That's really all I had from yesterday and it was Vegas rules anyway so I couldn't explain it.

Plus I was up 'til 3AM doing homework and then had to wake up at 8 to go to work all day so I did not get around to posting.

We took a tour of a law library that took way longer than I thought. But I learned a lot and it was interesting. And at least I finished the homework so I'm good for a few days at least.

Today was fun. Got to work at the home branch with Space Cadet so things were a little more relaxed. Except that the bookdrop was frozen shut so the maintenance dudes had to come over with a blowtorch.

So that was fun.

Anyway, after work was Trivia Night - the fundraiser for my nephew's school. We went as the cast from That 70's Show - I'm sure pictures will make Facebook. I was Donna, had my red hair and 70's shirt, the boyfriend was Foreman - appropriately enough.

Now I have the urge to watch the series. I have the majority of it - leaving out of course the last season after Topher ditches. Does he at least come back for the finale?

It was fun, 10 categories with 10 questions each plus the additional Dead or Alive and Heads of Tails between rounds. I got some random ones - you would have been proud. Jackson Pollock, Scott Joplin, Albany, The Hunger Games.

Yes, I'm aware those are random answers, but they were the ones I contributed as the majority of the questions were answered by the boyfriend, the brother and the brothers-in-law. Though this year they had an entire category dedicated to quilting - yes, quilting - and Oldest and Second Sisters took over that one. Even Favorite Sister-In-Law dominated this year. Setting the standard for next year pretty high.

There were some weird categories, I mean the usual ones of religion and around the town but then the first category was all about dogs, which we got like 8/10 so that was awesome but then that quilting thing was way weird. Glad the sisters knew what they were talking about.

Interestingly enough, last year we got hosed on the Around the Town thing because they hadn't lived there very long, and yes I went to college there but I didn't pay attention to what building an image of an anvil was on or how many clocks were in the courtyard. This year's was very very specific - and weird. Like what road is this fence on? who lives in this house? - it was the University's president WHICH I GOT RIGHT! so take that.

And I didn't even know it was his house. I just guessed cause it had to be some sort of celebrity so people would know it.

Take that!

Anyway, I think our final score was like 71 or 72. Not great but not last - actually we tied for 12th out of 30 teams so it wasn't that bad.

For as specialized as the categories were at least.

We're debating themes for next year. Possibly something 80's, maybe favorite 80's movie character - in which case I'm not sure who I'd choose. Have to do some research on that one. Some of the Star Wars movies came out in the 80's and I am a Carrie Fisher fan. Though I would avoid the bikini scene. That would just be awkward.

Oh, speaking of, so I love it (that was sarcasm) when people come up to me and say, "hey you look great, did you lose some weight?"

Cause I never know what to say.

I wasn't aware I needed to lose any and it's not like I'm trying to.

I mean I don't really eat but that's because of time constraints, not dieting.

Unless time constraints is a form of dieting.

In which case I would be on a diet.

But what do you say to that really?

Um, thanks?

Anyway, on to the music. Songs of the day:

I feel like I'm running out of music to rec, but I guess that happens after 718 posts.

Gonna have to delve deeper into the collection.

Here, try these, they're great.
