SCENE: 1:30AM Saturday night - girl’s night, Donn’s Depot, Austin TX. We’ve been here before, this usually ends w/ someone throwing up. Usually that is me. Not this time!

Girls: *laughing*yelling*talking*laughing*
Girls: Let’s get a cab! Go home!
Krit: I’m fine to drive, I’ve been drinking Diet Coke on and off to try and wake up. We can all fit in Lisa’s RV.
Girls: Yay!!
Girls: We’re hungry! Let’s get Wendy’s! And Whataburger! And Taco Cabana!
Lisa and Nicole: Ooohh Mandy. You came and you gave without taking, but I sent you away. Oooh, Mandy.

Cut to Taco Cabana. We order a LOT of food. I give the guy at the drive-up a credit card and turn to talk to the girls. A minute later, Lisa starts laughing and points back at the window to reveal that I’m slowly rolling forward and the guy is straining out the window trying to give me back the card and receipt. Ack! Hit the breaks. Try to put the car in reverse and end up washing the windows. Try again. Success. I get back to the drive-up all a fluster and mumble my apologies and something about usually driving a standard and swearing I’m sober.

We made it home safe and sound, and I washed the windows again in the driveway trying to put the car in park. Didn’t go very far in reassuring the girls I was alright to drive, but thankfully drunk girls have short attention spans. :)

In all seriousness though, I love these girls. It was an awesome night. Happy birthday, Nicole.

Also - leftover birthday cake n’ coffee is my new favorite breakfast.
