amsterdam - day five - part two
I remember vodka. Lots and lots of vodka.
It's 11am and I'm on a train headed to Leiden. Pretty good considering I just got home to my hostel at 7am...Just in time to see a man leaving the red window across the street and just in time to see the lights on the canals go back off.
Last night I met up with Joe to go to Ultimate Party Amsterdam. It's a pub crawl and for 20 euro you get admission to six bars a drink at each and way too much vodka in the first half hour (poured straight down your throat by the really cute Aussie guide). Seriously, after a jager shot with another Aussie girl I probably had about 8 or 9 or 20 shots of vodka. Did I mention that was at the first bar? And just in the first half hour? And that end of that first half hour at that first bar I was pretty much completely wasted.
me and joe
You know what I learned? It's pretty easy to go up to a table full of guys and start talking. I also may have learned that Val makes really bad decisions while drunk. But anyways...
So the pub crawl was tons of fun...even if I don't remember much of it...I think Joe confessed his attraction for me...and then later told me his friend liked me...but...yeah...at that point I was already making out with a Canadian...
Seriously, next time I decide to go to Europe I'm just going to Canada because that's all I meet.
Anyways...there was a stripper pole at some point...and a bartender that spouted fire...and...more alcohol...
And did I mention this Canadian was tall? Like 6'7" tall? And that he was 22? And that he kept telling me that I had beautiful eyes? And that we may have left together? I did mention that I got home at 7. And I did mention that Val makes really stupid decisions when drunk. But whatever. Life experience.

Ummmm.
Ummmmmmmmm.
I may feel sick.
I kind of looked dude up on facebook.
It may have said such and such high school class of '07.
I don't think that makes him 22...
I may feel sick.

Don't worry, what happens in Europe, stays in Europe. (:

You don't have to go to Europe to have that kind of good time... you know where we live.
I think we should get you really stoned next time you come down, too. You know, in the safety of your friends' company. So you're sure you feel it.

Lindsay, I wonder if I should try that out and break off the vicodin and such after surgery...
