quiet weekend..but not?

my weekend is been kinda bipolar so far. thursday the girls and i decided to explore psiri, the neighborhood we usually go to, but we ended up not bringing the name or address of the place we were attempting to find, and then we just got lost. we ended up somewhere unknown, a Bermuda triangle of athens. filled with great bars/clubs! we were a litle intimidated by the bouncers at the doors, were they checking to see if we were hot enough? some clubs here do that. the dj was great, played great american songs and amazing greek ones. melissa is trying to get into greek pop. they have some great songs! i cant tell them apart. they all sound technoy/the same.
our cab ride home was ridiculous. we were ultra hyper, not even drunk, just happy and hilarious. talked to our driver. kept yelling lokamathas! (greek for donuts) ended up at this italian place near our apartment that we didnt know existed (damn we never go right) we got crazy desserts that even i couldnt finish. it was a success!! great night.

my roommates left friday morning to go to Delphi for a class trip and i slept late. well i attempted to. i was woken up at 1130 thinking aliens were invading or the water heater had exploded. the loudest scariest noise ever. the people upstairs are doing something crazy like putting in hardwood floors. or just using a time machine. cause it was the craziest noise ever. blood curdling. i couldnt go back to bed. it was a chilly cloudy day so i wondered around pagrati. found an awesome coffee place!!
i came home and chilled, made a great salad, caught up on my news, talked to the rents, watched some how i met your mother. went to bed early. it was very relaxing. i needed a rest.
im about go to kolonaki to meet a family friend who lives in athens. her and i have never met so on the phone before we hung up she was like wait, how will i know who you are? we have never met? i laughed and tried to describe myself. that was kinda awkward. im so much more awkward then people think.
it thundered this morning. i loved it. sleeping through thunderstorms is the best.

  1. 1) it's "she and I" not "her and I"

    2) also, yeah, there's something about feeling safe inside while it's storming outside, but thunder was anything but calming when i was a kid.
