Not interested in wearing your bells, Oni.  I said to leave them at home.

Go re-read that post, dude.  I don't think it says what you seem to think it says.

Why didn't you guys have one of your myriad of friends drop you off?  Makes a lot more sense than expecting to be able to drive after being there for a couple hours.

That's because most of his friends, with the exception of you, don't have cars and/or don't have a driver's license. LMAO. Plus, he'll refuse for me to drive my OWN  car home. He doesn't feel safe when I drive. LMAO!!!

Pretty certain that Eternimus and Crimson are both licensed drivers....


Well, anyway, I'm just sorry that Millie was too busy drinking to be able to take pictures.  Some of the expressions you made over the different products you tasted were just priceless! ;D

Unless I'm mistaken, they don't own a vehicle and Kritter refuses to let anyone else drive the car under nearly any circumstance.

And like she said, the rest of our friends don't have vehicles of their own, for the most part. :P

The Festival was fun.  I'm really not a fan of beer at all but getting little 2oz. samples was nice, there were a few beers there I had never tried that I ended up liking, as well as a few beers I knew I liked that I had some of.

I was thinking to myself, if we had stayed the entire night, "If I use up all of these tickets, at the end of this I'll either develop more of a taste for beer, or never drink beer again in my lifetime."

Ended up going through like, 10 of the tickets though, I think, which was nice.  By the end of it, I could somewhat feel the alcohol in my system, but not even at that 'buzzed' state yet.  I imagine Oni and Kritter weren't even at that state, since they each have a higher tolerance for alcohol than I do.

You're mistaken, Eternimus owns a truck.  Even so, I'm sure the three of you could have bullied talked Kritter into letting him use her car to get you guys down there and back safely if you really tried. ;D

Oh no, no one absolutely does not ride my car other than me. I don't really like Oni using my car sometimes. XP

Why, because I always expect a call that goes, "How much do you love me? ... I wrecked your car."

I would be too if some one had called me up that exact same way and my car was dead.
