New Years

I had a pretty fun new years this year. Had dinner with my friends at a place called Anytime in WillyB. It was very mediocre. Dapo goes because they have a vegetarian pasta dish that he enjoys. We met up with Santi and his friend Jim. Jim had never heard or had Hoeggarden before. I ordered a pint and he did to try it and really enjoyed it.

Then we met up with Margo, Ray, Kevon and Julie at a loft party in Manhattan. It had a pretty steep (for me) cover but what the hell, it's new years. Open bar for a few hours so it was all good. Not really my crowd though (all the hipsters were in Willyb or the LES).

I was on line for the bathroom at one point making small talk to these 2 black guys when a black girl came up to us and asked one of the "where all the black people at". And one of the guys goes, "well, I'm here, he's (pointing to other black guy) here and the rest are in the other room". She goes off. The guy turns to me and says, "sorry I didn't include you man" I'm thinking, "ok, I'm not black" but I said to him "well I am black by association, na mean??" And he's like, "yeah! you a minority, you know how it is". Then I went inside to pee.

At one point we all went to Dapo's car and uh, "sat around" for a while. Kevon passed out so we left in in the car while we went back to the party" "Kevon, don't throw up in my car" Dapo said. We went back later and Kevon had thrown up all over the passenger side door. Ewww. It was the funniest thing ever. Then I walked with him and Julie to the subway and literally everyone on the street was stumbling around drunk as fuck. Some people were sitting on the floor and couldn't walk. It was the funniest thing ever seeing the entire city drunked out.
