BEERFEST!

So yesterday was the 12th annual Mobile Beerfest. Its 31 bars and 3 beers per bar for 20$. Do the beers repeat? I don't know or care much. Its more of a way of Mobile to raise money for Bayfest than a way of actually showing off the locally brewed bears. Do I care much? Not really. I took off with one of the guys because I was DD'ing for him and that was ok too.

A bunch of guys we were trying to catch up were hopping around, making it a little more difficult for us to catch up with them. We walked around and ended up running into a bunch of non-Navy people that live here in the complex. It was alright. I met a couple of cool guys name Oscar and Jared. Oscar is half Mexican and half Italian. He and Jared think I'm some kind of comedian or something. He called me "primo" the whole night. I didn't really get it, but hey, if it makes him feel more Mexican, ORALE! He's from Forth Worth and got a ration and a half of shit for being from Texas. He took it like a champ. hahaha!

So the guy that I'm DD'ing for ends up taking off to...somewhere without telling me and I end up hanging out with one of the guys that we FINALLY caught up with. Good guy. The OTHER guys ended up going to another bar and we ended up...something. Hahaha...it was a long night so I don't remember all of it. We ended up walking in their general direction so we could catch up with them and we stop at a hot dog stand. I'm not a fan of hot dogs so we get one for my buddy.

There's two women standing there waiting for their order and we end up chit chatting with them. So picture this: We're at a hot dog stand, waiting on my buddies dog and we start chit chatting with these two women that are CLEARLY NOT Mobilites. I was getting some weirdish vibes and then one of them says, "I brought her and our kid out here." Ok...now as my friends you know where I stand with the whole homosexuality thing, but now RE-EXAMINE the situation! I'm standing there with my buddy at a hot dog stand talking to two lesbians who end up being from near our respective hometowns...and they're waiting on their hot dogs.

WITH EVERY FIBER OF MY BEING I FOUGHT THE URGE TO BURST INTO TEARS LAUGHING AND ASK THEM IF THIS WAS HOW THEY GOT THEIR DAILY ALLOWANCE OF HOT WEINER!!! BLAHAHAHAHA!!!

We left the ladies to their hot dogs and resumed to walking in the direction of the rest of our people. But it turns out my buddy was still hungry so we stopped and had a couple beers and a pizza at this DELICIOUS pizzeria/restaurant called Buck's pizza. Talked to our waiter, Nick, whose apparently planning on moving out to L.A. in 2 months time. The pizza was delicious.

So we THEN do some more walking only to find them walking back our direction. And we all spend the rest of the evening at the place we started off initially meeting at. We picked up a couple of uninviteds, but whatever. Good times had by all.

Even with all the good times and distraction I had last night, all I wanted was to be home and in bed kissing my love. To have her near me and know that our little ones were safe and sound...and ASLEEP in their own beds...hahaha...
