We had just gotten back from 8 days
in Orlando, and life was slowly returning to normal. Tonight was supposed to be
Cat’s birthday celebration at Rosie’s in Ferndale, but she cancelled on me at
last second. Angelic Form asked me if I wanted to go to The Street tonight. We
had not done as much “clubbing” in Orlando as Angelic Form had wanted, so as
far as he was concerned, he needed to make up for lost time. Though I had
managed to make my own plans, I decided to double book. Last night while
Angelic Form caught up with Brian, I had found myself talking to this person
online. I will from now on call him Straight Form. Straight Form had agreed to
hang out with me tonight. I was really not in the mood for The Street or any
establishment like it tonight, so I told Straight Form that I would meet him at
the original place I had intended to go tonight: Rosie’s.
Before meeting Straight Form, I
found myself at the Bates Hotel with Kristen and Angelic Form. Kristen decided
that she too wanted to go to The Street tonight. I finally caved and told them
that I would come get them after I was done with Straight Form. To Ferndale it
was. Straight Form texted me and told me he was already there and sitting at
the bar. I went inside to meet his straight form. Straight Form was decent
looking, and was already being straight and sipping on a beer. Since I highly
disliked beer, I got cranberry vodka. Straight Form and I sat and talked about
everything from his job (which he had to be at early tomorrow) and my vacation.
Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I noticed two figures enter Rosie’s. I
did not want to believe it, but I looked again and I saw them. It was Kristen
and Angelic Form!
I guess being board and waiting for
me bumped up curiosity in them and they decided that they would come and barge
in on my date. I did not know what to do. I froze as Kristen and Angelic Form
sat right behind Straight Form and me. I decided to ignore them and act like I
had no idea who they were. The worst part was that Straight Form kept looking
back at Angelic Form every couple seconds. I ordered another drink and
continued to try and talk to Straight Form. Straight Form got up and went to
the bathroom and I instantly let Kristen and Angelic Form have it as they tried
to explain themselves. I told them we were about to leave. Straight Form came
back and cashed out his tab. He asked if I wanted to walk around. I told him
sure. We left Rosie’s and walked up the alley way to 9 Mile. When we reached the
corner, we saw this girl on the pony. She was drunk and begged us for a quarter
so she could ride that thing, since she obviously was not getting the real
thing tonight. Straight Form and I simply laughed as he friend came up and said
“oh ignore her, she does this every week”.
Straight Form and I walked off in total amazement.
We walked down and saw what was to
be the new Rosie’s. This looked bigger and better. As we walked and talked, I
heard Kristen’s laugh down the street a few blocks behind us. My friends were
still on our tail. We decided to walk back toward Woodward and bar hop. First
we walked into the Post Bar, which was extremely lame. We left the Post Bar and
continued to walk down Woodward. We walked across the street to this bar called
“The Underground”. This bar literally was underground and pretty much looked
like it was in someone’s basement. There we stood as we watched Michael Jackson
videos play on the screen. We finally decided to leave the underground and
return to above ground. We started to walk back down on 9 Mile. Straight Form
was hungry, as was I. Straight Form suggested that we go into BDubbs for a
snack.
We sat down and Straight Form ran
to the bathroom. Angelic Form called my phone and told me that they had parked
behind BDubbs! I did not know what to do. Straight Form came back and I acted
normal. I decided to order chips. I asked for just the cheese, but when my food
arrived the chips had like a million things piled on them! I did not want to
complain so I ate just a few of them. After we were done eating, I walked
Straight Form back to his car because he had to get to bed so he could get up
for work the next day. I ran to my car and met Angelic Form and Kristen at
Burger King. I told Angelic Form that we were not going out but that we could
go to Kristen’s and drink. We went back to Kristen’s and hung out for the rest
of the night. I ended up passing out on the couch until Angelic Form woke me up
and told me I needed to take him home. What a night! It’s like Florida never
ended!
