Friday night with my BFFs
Friday, August 13, 2010
A few weeks ago I was having a really horrible week, so luckily my best friends were around to cheer me up! We decided to go to Wings and then go do some karaoke. After work, Marek and I met up with Chris by the Pike (what a disaster...thanks a lot, Route 9 traffic!), and we headed out to meet Jeremy and Pawi at Wings.
Wings is pretty much my favorite place to eat, ever. (Yes, even more than Red Robin and Chick-Fil-A, if that's possible.) They make the best chicken "wings" (I always get boneless), no lie. Whenever we head back to our college area, we always try to stop by, and we've even driven out there just for wings! It's always nice to go in the summer because a lot of the college kids are gone, so it's a little easier to get a seat. We got one of the nice big tables along the wall when we went, which was nice.
Here's Chris, Jeremy, and I outside Wings. Really, I cannot say how much I love this place. It always brings back such great memories, and we always have a great time there. Plus, the food.
Jeremy and I originally met at Stop & Shop, so it's not uncommon for us to stop by when we're both in the area. This particular Friday we stopped in to get bobby pins. Yes, this is me, making fun of Twilight. Sorry, Twilight fans.
We headed over to the "club" to hang out and do some karaoke. On Friday nights they have karaoke and alternate it with dancing. It's fun, but it's soooo loud, especially during the dancing parts. Our group was pretty low-key. We just staked out an area by the bar, and had some drinks. Oh, and we watched some people get in a verbal fight, which was pretty cool. We were kind of pulling for an actual fight, but it didn't happen. In fact, the girl made her boyfriend apologize to the other guy in the end.
Jeremy and I got to sing 3 times each - we each sang 2 songs by ourselves, and then we sang a duet together. We put our names down as "Boomer + Chief" for the song we sang together. (Any Battlestar Galactica fans out there?) We sang "The Time of My Life" from Dirty Dancing, and halfway through the song, this other couple even came up and started dancing in front of us. We had our own groupies! Plus we got to close out the night, which is always a karaoke honor.
After karaoke, we headed back out, and I somehow ended up explaining to the boys about the calf to thigh ratio, and how to make your legs look longer. Here's Chris giving it a try with his shorts! See, his legs look longer already!
Boomer loves Chief. :)
Here's the non-karaoke-ers.
Everyone but Marek.
I was really glad we were all able to get together. I'd been feeling so down for the entire week (and had to work all day both days that weekend), so it was nice to get out and spend some time with friends. It really made me feel a lot better, and I was really grateful they came out to play!
