INCREASE-DECREASE

So last night, I went out (without Griffin, sheesh) to our homeboy, Guy’s, birthday celebration. Well, it wasn’t just his. He through it with another homegirl, Vibeke, as the “Aries All-Stars” party. I tell ya, they sure know how to throw a bash. Better yet, they sure know how to pick a spot to have a party. Nothing like three dollar whiskey shots, and 20 dollar bottles of champagne, to break the ice. “Let’s get this party started, quickly, right?!”

The whole gang was there, and fun was had by all. Oh, and I smoked a cigar. I’ve never done that before, but last night seemed like an appropriate time to try. The funniest thing was everyone saying, “Whatever you do J, don’t inhale, or you’ll die.” I thought to myself, “Is it worth the risk?” Then I said, “Bartender, one more round…” Hay, I’m still alive. And I have a new memory! Awesome. (Thanks Lex.)

Did I mention that every beer came with a whiskey shot as well. Yikes.

Cigar time!

This is Alia, and Al. Awesome names for a couple. Alia, owns her own bag line. Check it out. And Al, well, Al is only one of the best music producers in the country. It’s true. Ask about him. He’s also a web designer…yep…one of those guys.

Cat is so dope.

…get it.

A celebration of life.
