BM's company party
Mood:  chatty
Topic: my own bachelorette show
Saturday night I went to a stupid holiday company party with BM, and ended up babysitting him after he got totally trashed half way through the night.

It was a hotel party, so I basically managed to get him to his room and get him into bed and he kinda blacked out. I had to get his shoes off for him and everything. Then I went back out and partied with his friends. The crowd and his friends were pretty lame though. Most of the guys were immature jerks and their girlfriends/wives, despite the guys being in their late twenties early thirties, were way too young - most around 21 and really stereotypical. I ended up spending more time with Rocco, a dude from a pretty famous local band that was hired for the party who was bummed out because he just got dumped. And I made a new friend out of one of the only wives there, who was somewhat around my age. So it's not a total wash, but it's all about opportunity cost. I'm going to have very little free time from now on, and I think I'd rather spend it on my friends then on someone who's just OK to date. I missed two friends' bands concerts playing for this. I don't mind being supportive and all, but it's kinda shitty to bring a date that doesn't know anyone at a party, and get smashed? Because then the date is on her own. Which for me is not a problem to get acquainted with new people, but he doesn't know me well enough to assume that, plus jeez, what am I suppose to think about a guy that does that at a work party... And he was rude to me while we were getting ready, and then I end up having to take care of him. I pick real winners! He flew out to costa rica (I had to get him up at 5:30 and on the plane) this morning, and I didn't have the heart to dump him before his vacation. But I'm looking forward to it when we both get back into town. Straw, camel's back. Yeah, it shouldn't have to come down to this, but I guess I feel that I should give people a chance. Less then 2 months wasted, I guess.
