above: aaron, me and elaha being cutie patooties. elaha and i have decided we want aaron to be our new BFFL.
so we ended up just drinking in aaron’s residence last night and it was surprisingly fun.
we stopped by shopper’s drug mart on our way over to pick up snacks (ms. vickie’s and some white chedder kettle cooked popcorn + coca cola for chase [so over the ‘chugging straight vodka’ thing]). aaron called us and told us we needed some form of id so he could sign us into his res (a hotel-turned-residence kind of like my old res) and of course elaha had neglected to bring any form of id.
“you know you should always bring your health card around, just, like, for safety reasons and stuff. like if you sudddenly died or something.”
“WELL I DON’T PLAN ON DYING TONIGHT OKAY GOD.”
we decided to wing it so we just showed up anyway and aaron made something up about elaha being his cousin and blah blah blah and the manager of the hotel looked worried and indecisive but he eventually let us pile into the elevator and make our way to aaron’s suite.
1 mickey of smirnoff
½ 26 of bacardi gold
the smallest bottle of fireball whiskey i’ve ever seen
250 ml of coca cola
1 bag of sea salt and vinegar ms. vickie’s chips
1 bag of white cheddar cheese kettle cooked popcorn
those were the ingredients of the night.
revealing and candid discussions combined with the steady intoxication of casual drinks is always a recipe for good times.
we talked and we drank and we laughed – there were handstands and spills and a lack of clean cups.
topics of discussions included: aaron’s numerous little infatuations/intimate experiences, the complications of elaha’s lovelife, roommate hatred, etc etc etc.
and then it was time for bed and there was cuddling and other things – and a little bit of carpet burn – and it was incredibly strange, but weirdly cute i guess.
we woke up today and spent the morning lying around all groggy and lighthearted.
aaron had to leave for school at 1:30pm, so elaha and i finally went to our favourite restaurant, which is a magical land of perfection and hapiness and dreams – where you are served at the push of a button and everyone is courteous and kind – where you get more food than you would ever need for prices that are just divine.
arisu – land of magic.
and then we went hunting for ‘the history of love’, which i’ve been meaning to read for a while.
by the end of the bookhunt we were in the best of moods.
it’s really nice to be perfectly content.
