Hangovers are terrible monsters...
Last night Laura went out to dinner with her sister, so I decided to make plans for myself. I ended up meeting up with a friend of mine that lives over near Brooklyn Heights. We ended up going to a bar called The Brazen Head. On all of my previous experiences, I haven't had all that great a time over there, but last night was an exception. On cask (Hand pull keg that stays at cellar temperature) they had a beer from Chealsea brewing company. Normally, their stuff isn't that great.... it's not BAD, but it's nothing special. Well, last night they had a cask of their Cream Stout and it was AMAZING. It was, by far, the best cask ale that I have ever had. Anyway, after around 7 of them, I was getting pretty tired. I ended up getting on the G train and missing my stop and then took a $14 cab ride home. I was so cocked that the cabbie could have taken me whatever way he wanted. I don't know HOW it cost $14 to come home from Queens, but it did. Oh well. So this morning I am paying for my transgression and it's kicking my ass.
In order to combat the hangover, I decided that it would be a good idea to get a coffee and bagle for the ride to work this morning....that was a mistake. So in addition to being terribly hung over, the roads are wet and there is an annoying drizzle of rain that's coming down. Because I'm driving a shitty rental car, the tires need to be replaced and the windshield wipers are less than stellar. So my hung over ass was trying to drive and drink my coffee. Let's just say that I think I got more coffee in the cup holder than I actually was able to drink. This is definetly NOT my morning.
In addition to not having a great morning, I also found out that my paycheck wasn't deposited into my bank account. I have a bi-monthly system where we get paid once on the 15th and once on the....well... I thought it was on the 30th, because THAT would make sense...but nope. I guess I get paid on the 31st. What a pain in the ass. Oh well. So tomorrow I will be presented with all my riches that I have earned in the past two weeks, most of which will go towards paying the landlord. Such is life. I'm sure that I'll post later, but right now I need to catch up on the latest NFL gossip. :)
