A Guest Post by Jessica

Hello friends, this is Jessica, your guest blogger for the evening. Here is what Briar has done today:

1. Left the apartment at 8am after eating a Donut from Dunkins
2. Took the T to the airport while making references to Charlie and Candy Mountain and the wonderful land of sweets and joy and joyness. Our fellow passengers were not amused.
3. Was asked by a rude woman at Dunkin Donuts where she was from, Briar took this to mean that the women thought Briar had bad manners. Briar ordered a egg, cheese and bacon on a croissant, a medium hazlenut coffee with cream and sugar.
4. SAW TERESA!!!
5. Sat around waiting for Laura to arrive. Played multiple rounds of "That's not Laura", Alisa lost because she kept pointing out old white men or short asian women as being Laura.
6. SAW LAURA!!!!
7. Tried to have lunch at Christophers, but for future reference they don't open until 4pm on weekdays. Briar instead had lunch at Pizzaria Uno's, where she had the Muchos Nachos and a 4 cheese pizza along with two pomegranate margartias. The second margarita was heavy on the pomegranate, which can be translated as easy on the tequilla. The waiter got a big tip.
7 1/2. (Sorry I forgot this earlier). It seemed like a good idea at the time to buy a flask of vodka at Liquor World to bring on our travels. The clerk asked whether we needed a bag or just intended to store the flask in our purse/back pocket. When he realized his comment offended us, he assured us that he got plenty of drunks coming around at 2pm on Thursdays. P.S. He was crocheting a pink blanket.
8. Met Alisa at work and had free ice cream. Briar had a coconut popsicle which she dripped EVERYWHERE.
9. Got sidetracked on the way to the mall because she passed a place that served alcohol. Briar drank a Bellini at Legal Seafoods, that was served with a dried peach that according to Teresa's expert medical opinion "looked like a finger". The bar tender was amused.
10. Went to the mall. We amused a fellow shuttle bus traveler. Lots of clothes were drunkenly purchased, and should probably be returned tomorrow. Teresa was unable to find double sided tape.
11. Came back from mall and went to star where we purchased: five ears of corn, a bag of oranges, a can of corn, a berry pie, cookie dough ice cream, lime juice and a package of bacon (Alisa screamed out "Will 20 pieces of bacon be enough for the 5 of us" as soon as a guy walked by. Since our love of bacon did not convince him to ask any of us out, we assume he is a) gay b) vegan c) blind d) deaf e) all of the above).
12. Returned to the flat and cooked puerto rican rice and ate it communaly out of a bowl. Lauren and Lesley came over (!!!!!!) and we ate the pie (including pieces we dropped on the floor) without using plates (hence the frequent dropping). We proceded to watch So You Think You Can Dance while drinking a combination of Sam's Summer Ale, Strawberry Margartias, vodka tonics, gin tonics, and a drink alisa made up with rum, mailbu, peach schnappes and a splash of flat sprite.
13. We did the wilg dance, famously known for such moves as "Monkey on a Stick", "The Gay" and best of all "The Tampon".
14. All the dancing made Briar too tired to go out clubbing, which was our regular plan. Chris came over and we've been drinking/hanging around the house. Laura just said "I'm so wasted". It's been a successful night.
