So last night was kind of a bust. We only really caught the tail end of the happenings (it was an outdoor event) and it was balls hot out so we were only at the thing for less than an hour. Just long enough to be DRENCHED in sweat.
Upon our arrival we were both offered cups of beer, but it was Mich Ultra which tastes like piss water so we declined. We are beer snobs. Every one else was sufficiently pumped full of alcohol (the beer was FREE) so we eventually each choked down a cup. It was, after all, free beer. Even though we missed most of the actual event, we would've stayed longer but the only people who were there were people we don't like to hang around. The real A-holes that husband works with. Once tolerably handsome Australian guy left we headed out too.
The only reason I really wanted to stay was that in the approximately 40 minutes we spent there I was called beautiful by two of his co-workers and hit on by a third. And being the shallow prick that I am, liked the attention.
It probably doesn't even count because they were all pretty drunk, but I'll take what I can get. The fact that there were three other women there and I was the one they were focusing on, well, I was soaking it in.
I hope you all are doing well! And thanks Fed Up, I guess I made the most of it. Even if I am a shallow ass-hat.
Sincerely,
Shallow Ass-hat.
I'm shallow too. I loved it when hubby's friends said I was beautiful at the party. Ha, ha. As for beer. I'll drink ANYTHING light. Guess I'm a beer bum if not a beer snob!! Glad you made the best of it.
ReplyDeleteWhat girl doesn't love attention? :) Especially when you are feeling like you're more of a 4 or 5 rather than a 8 and up.
ReplyDeleteFor all the effort it takes to get ready, someone had better appreciate it.
