Mae Xing came out to visit

Last Friday it started out sooo innocently. I got off work a bit early so I called Corey out. We went to Little Woodrows around 4 (I think). We decided to sms Bad Jimmy to see waddup. We figured he was either at the usual Sugars or P10. To our amazement, he was grocery shopping. No way! How could it be! He came and met up with us afterwards....and it begins. Bad Jimmy kept ordering 1 more round. We all know what happens to Marisa after (4) Fireman 4s. I turn into Mae Xing.

The boys went to the restaurant for dinner with Ann. I was suppose to go home and work on the newletter for NYE. For some reason, I drifted to G's and wanted some alone time. Around 10 p.m., Bad Jimmy, Bad Apple, and Corey showed up at G's. Mae Xing was really blasted that she had to revert to diet coke (which she normally don't drink) and had a gallon of it. I can't say much for G's because it was a little blurry. Apparently, Trey and Alisa met up with us and there was also a great band. Bad Mae Xing! She's suppose to die in Mexico earlier this year. Marisa is suppose to go to the Hovii for some great friends time with karaoke or do the newsletter.

But wait...Mae Xing was suppose to go back home after G's. She started heading there and waited for the light to turn. Forget this long light! Headed to meet the group at Homer's instead. Ended up sobering up and driving Corey home...as usual. Bad JImmy, Bad Apple, and Fluffer all bailed on taking the boy home.

Saturday around noon, Bad Jimmy and Bad Apple came over to pick me up for lunch. These 2 shouldn't go out together! They decided to do hit the bars on Burnet road. We went to Ginny's Little Longhorn without a lot of cash. We had 3 dollar bills and loose change. We were able to get 2 Lone Stars and 1 Schlizt. We also went to Lala's, poodle dog, and Graffiti's.

The whole day we were smsing and calling Corey almost every hour. We drunk dial Sleazy, Trevor, Brownie, I think AG, Billie, and many others I can't seem to recall right now. We also sent a pic of this cool older guy that looked like Rob to him. This guy felt bad for us cashless dorks and bought us a round at Ginny's.

All in all, it was a great day and I wasn't drunk! I couldn't drink that much so I was the DD for the Bad asses. We were out about 10 hours! Damn people.

Who let the Asian out?

I went to Minneapolis the last weekend of November for work. Life there is so different. Everything is indoors. We stayed at the Hilton downtown, which is 3 buildings away from Oracle. Most of the downtown buildings are connected on the 2nd floor by the skyway. I feel like we're little hamsters walking around. :-)

The restaurants there are fabulous. It's quite interesting to see 2 happy hours. From 4 - 7 for the office crowds and from 10 - 12 for the service industry. Some of the restaurants turns into a lounge/club on some nights with DJs and dancing. One of the places we had a blast was Chino Latino. Of course the incigator that I am, I ordered sake bombs for the team. It was $10 a pop! However, it comes with a silly headband that we thought it was sooo cool. It was a great way to boost up morale and the group up.



We hit the jackpot by being there for the team holiday outing. We celebrated by going curling Curling in Wiki. Yes, it's the "silly/boring" game that you saw on the olympics. I wasn't looking forward to it because I'm not very athletic and not to mention, I'm a klutz. It looked like an ice skating rink but you are on regular shoes with soft soles. Within the first 5 mins, I fell on my lovely butt in front of the Oracle employees that I didn't know. nice. Anyhow, it turned out to be a blast! I loved it. It's a great team building event. Kind of like bowling but with several "rocks" using strategic moves to beat the opponent. fun fun fun!





My God sister, Alice, also lived there. She's the hotty on the far left. Barry, my teammate/friend in the middle was bless by her single friends everynight. Here is a pic of Alice, Lily, Barry, Xing, and I at Zelo, the trendy Italian place.



She also took me to a really cool museum Walker Art Center. It's been so long since I went to a museum.



Overall, I thought MPLS is a cool place to visit. It's cold but there're alternatives to hide from the cold.
