Not Just Any Elektric Band




Alright, the reason I am behind at work is because I left work early on Monday… officially, to go to a concert; unofficially, to go drink. I had bought four tickets to Fall Out Boy / All American Rejects and everyone bailed, leaving me to ask one of the work people to go with me. Luckily, she didn’t have other plans and agreed. We started drinking and after a few (read: 4) beers and a (read: two) shot, we hit the road, er, train.

We hit the venue and yikes, we felt old… with the exception of the parents there chaperoning their kids. To make matters worse, the concert was being held on the UIC campus – so, no booze, a total Nazi rule but whatever. But in an unexpected turn, I went from feeling like a total NoFriends McLoser to being a resourceful chick with two extra tickets to be used to get back into the concert. Needless to say, we hoofed it to the nearest bar and started pounding liquor by the liter… nice.

A smart and responsible employee probably would’ve stopped drinking once she got home from the concert and not have gone out for a couple more… but then again, a responsible employee wouldn’t have allowed herself to get caught peeing in the janitor’s closet while coming down from an amazing high… and we all know how that ended up.

All in all, a good Monday . And DJ, you're right - I probably don't use enough pictures
