It was just such a lovely day yesterday.
I mean, I had math, and there was a quiz, and then after that I had computer science, but... ah. What a lovely day.
I still had half a handle of that disgusting vodka, and so I said to Brody that we should go out and drink it. During the middle of a Thursday. And because Patrick hadn't drunk in a while either, and he really wanted to, I knew I wanted to invite him too.
And goodness, what an excellent idea of mine it was :)
We went to the Arboretum. It sounds all cool and exciting, truth is, it's only a bunch of trees and a clearing. But still, it's separated from campus and kind of a nice place for hiking and such.
Anyway, we found one area, kind of in the shade, and a little separated from the big open area by some trees. And sat down, and started taking shots.
At first, it wasn't all that fun. We were all a little awkward, just taking shots almost mechanically (maybe because McCormick's is the most disgusting stuff ever) and didn't have all that much to say.
But after 1/4 a handle we were all laughing, and taking pictures, and just having the best of best of times.
Reasoning:
It's springtime, and where we were was the perfect setting. Not a soul to worry about bothering us, just sitting in this beautiful clearing. There was sunshine, and all of the birds were chirping. There was a slight wind to go with the bits of sunshine that peaked through shade. I was with my friends. We were laughing, and talking, and it was just... one of the best times I've ever had ever.
Who knew drinking in the middle of the day could be so nice?
[Side note: walking back was hellish. I'm fairly certain that things happened that I don't remember. But not much. Fortunately for us, we ran in to Marshall and John on their way into the forest as we were coming out of it. Patrick could barely walk, and of course, Brody and I were wobbly, so it would've been nearly impossible had Marshall and John not been there. Many thanks to them.]
