(OK, not today, but yesterday…)
I learned that Shady McS may not be that shady, and he may or may not be too hot for me. Regardless, I need to figure out a new nickname. He flew into town last night, and asked what my plans were. Then he met up with me and the bloggers at our hoppy Blogger Bash. First, how awesome that a) he wanted to see me again b) he wanted to hang with my peeps AND he did not make fun of me for any of my drunken antics. It’s not often that the blogging community has had a glimpse into the behind-the-scenes action of Mel in action. (I’m still a loser, honest).
OK, so I like this guy. Honestly, he’s surprised me by not being a douchebag. Nice compliment, right? Maybe I am fucking jaded. And if he’s doing all this just to get in my pants, well, he’s doing the right things to get in my pants, albeit, he has a ways to go. By the by, I did tell McS what I wrote about him. After reading my “Life, Liberty…” nametag, it prompted a discussion as to what I blog about. He was amused to say the least, but now probably reading this. Awesome. And why in the world was my nametag on the headrest of my back seat this morning?
I learned that maybe PDA is underrated. OK, it’s not, but I was that mother-fucking person again last night. Perhaps it’s my years of forsaking making out in public, that I feel immensely obligated to make up for lost make-out time. God, I sound like a fucking idiot this morning. More coffee…
I learned how to pronounce Maredsous the correct way (finally). I’m sure everybody at Bar Cento is equally as impressed. Or not. Everest brought a few samples to me after drinking three — yes, THREE — Maredsous(es), and I selected the Dogfish Head Midas Touch (it was refreshing for some reason). And what in the world was in that shot, Chef’s Widow? Holy crap, I just remembered I drank water from the large water bottle on the table. The classiness continues… AND what was this strange cider-concocted drink I drank? Who ordered that? (Did I?).
I learned that exes are pussies. Yes, pussies. Get over yourself already, Waffles.
I learned that I cannot sing Bob Seger. And singing with strangers on karaoke night is probably not a way to make new friends. (I can’t even remember what song I performed with them! LOL). Who gave me balls last night?
You know, essentially I learned nothing more than drinking on a school night does nothing for a productive workday (or brain, for that matter). I am so happy I don’t have plans tonight.

PDA is very underrated. I love it, and it’s a requirement to get in my pants or continue getting in my pants:) Of course there are boundaries and discretion at times, but other than that I gets down.
I commend u for telling about ur blog. Nobody I date knows about mine, and it’s private so they can’t even try to see what I think about them.

This is a great website for pronouncing the Belgian biers. I wish I would have found it when I still worked at the Bier Markt.

Realizing I never should have left! I could’ve had pictures to post about it. Then you would have killed me.

Jose - yes. yes it does. and thank you for your flattery. LOL
Ali M - Ooooh, Alexa took a picture! But I made her promise not to post it (he is very anti-being-on-the-internet) — unless she does like a giant black bar or yellow smiley over his head. But I’ll give her permission to send you an e-mail.

Bob Seger karaoke? I’d pay to see that.

The beauty of Christmas Ale is that everything is wonderful when you are under its influence…cheers!

I agree that he is not that douchey (he actually seems fairly genuine) and definitely agree that he is not too hot for you

Vanessa - as always, you’re the awesom-est!
MG - oh… no. I was very, very bad. LOL But the karaoke in general was rock n’ roll karaoke night. SUCH a fun night out at one of the best places in Cleveland.
Teets - pizza. beer. I know what I’m doing again tonight. Although, I’ll be on my couch. With PJs. And Netflix.
Kelly - haha. Thanks! Matt actually gave a good review of him too. Hmmm. Well, maybe remaining guarded will prevent me from acting the fool.

A friend of mine used to think that the big question from the Bob Seger song “Fire Lake” was really, “Who’s gonna go to fry an egg?” That always cracked me up.
