After work on Friday, I had two functions to go to. A vendor party at a printers and a birthday party. Naturally after a long week at work I was tired an promised myself I would only stay a half hour at the work function and then go home. Why is it when you are going to a party you don't want to be at you end up being there longer than you had planned. My 1/2 hour turned into 3 hours. If I hadn't turned to a girl on my left and said "You look familar do I now you/" I would have been home before 8pm. But instead I asked the question and was out till past midnight. The girl turned to me and said "No, I don't think so." That turned into some small chat and an introduction to her friend. We somehow got on the topic of moving and the previous person's mail. The girl confided that she had gotten the most beautiful wedding invitation in the mail but that it wasn't addressed to her it didn't take a genius to figure out that she had committed mail fraud and had opened the invite. She went on to say that she didn't stop there. She ended up googling the couple and the upscale town outside of New York. I couldn't help to be taken in by the couple and encouraged the two girls to crash the wedding. After all if they could afford to send out customized invitations on expensive die-cut paper than they must be rich and inviting hundreds of people. No one would notice two wedding crashers. I spent the next two hours chatting it with this girl and her two friends. When it came time for the raffle the 4 of us girls won! Can you believe that in a room of 100 people all 4 of us won. We couldn't believe our lucky so we decided to each buy lottery tickets. 9pm came rolling around and I told the girls I needed to go to another party. I had had so much fun talking to them that I asked them to come along and they did. I never got on so weel with strangers before much less three girls. They met me at Formosa Cafe and we partied there for several hours. For an evening that was supposed to be a quick stop, it sure turned into a long one and a fun one. I love having those kinds of days when anything could happen, it makes a gal very excited about life.
When I was going to Michigan State University, my friends and I would always go to BW3's for hot wings. They always had a variety of flavored wings from Honey BBQ to steaming hot, hot, death wings. Wings and a beer were just the thing to satisfy a busy student's appetite. When we frequented BW3's it was a dive bar but by the time my brother graduated from MSU they swapped locations for a building across the street and turned the name to Buffalo Wild Wings and the restaurant became more like a chain thing. Well, color me shocked the other day when we went to the movies and I saw a Buffalo Wild Wings being built in the AMC Burbank 16 complex. Apparently, after looking on their website they are one of the fastest top 10 chains in the US. So of course I had to introduce the hubby to one of my favorite college treats. I don't think he is so much a fan of chicken wings so we got boneless chicken wings a.k.a. tasty little chicken chunks in two of the flavored sauc...
