i didnt get a chance to make it to d.c. but i did have a good time here in brooklyn. keeping it local during events like this can be one of two things. it can be great to be around friends and people like you with a common interest or it can be very boring and the whole time you're thinking about how you missed the boat. my experience was obviously the former and it feels good to be greatful that i had a chance to experience history even though i witnessed it via cnn.
madiba was packed all day and since i dont like standing crowds and i couldn't find a seat i took off to red bamboo. the rum punch was weak but only 5 bux and the fact that they carry duvel was nice to know. not too busy in there and now that i think about it i never did get that $10 coupon that they promised on the door for my next visit.
afterwards it was off to the alibi but i did have to stop back at the brooklyn moon to pick up my zune. cheap drinks and good people. it wasn't too busy because they had just opened. with the whole of dekalb having drink specials and sales the alibi posted an obama sign with a special for stella drafts for $4. this would be a good deal if stella wasn't $4 at the alibi anyway!
one double jameson later i took it home to fix some food. took a quick cat nap and popped right back up, changed my tie and headed right back to the batcave (alibi) to meet a friend. ended up at kif for a bottle of syrah and pita bread. wanted more but the kitchen had run out of everything else! wtf! we got the check and after a bottle of wine and 2 orders of pita bread the bill came to $19!!! i assumed a mistake had taken place but my company thought it best not to draw attention to it, as our server was quite busy ;). i spun it back to the alibi for two more double jamesons and my night was sealed.
a good night with with friends is all you need in times like this.
more thoughts
1. what's with gay men and not respecting the answer NO! when you try to be respectful mofos wanna push the envelope. i suppose i just have to be the typical angry black man.
2. why must we put labels on things, why not just let things happen and fall into place on their own.
3. why do people walk into a crowded restaurant and ask the bartender...."are you open?" im the type of dude to say "nope...we just closed up, sorry"
4. ok, now its freezing outside, if you dont know if you're comming inside why must you hold open the door until you decide? these are the same people who come in and complain about it being cold.
5. why are the fine ones so fucking psycho?
6. why can't i finish blogging?
and i'm out...
