Last night was movie night over at Neals. He has a fantastic setup in his backyard. It contains, A movie screen, sound system, couches, chairs, hay, benches, all amongst other things to sit on. Last night Neal showed Scorseses' "After Hours". I took a class in college teaching strictly the films of Martin Scorsese, and After Hours was one that I had missed. There were between 10-15 people at the screening. And, Let me tell you, After Hours is a fantastic film! I was so impressed. Probably one of my favorite Scorsese films, even after my initial screening. It was quirky, dark, funny, uncomfortable, exhausting. If you have not seen this move. See it NOW!
Afterwards, we headed over to the Short Stop for a little bit. Did a little bit of dancing, a little bit of hanging, and took off to go to Little Joy. Hung out at Little Joy for a while. Met up with Tristans' sister, and her friend. Christina gave me a pair of pants (Thanks Christina!). And that was about the extent of it. I was overly exhausted and could not wait to crawl into my bed. After Hours, made this ever more desirable. So I take off for home.
As I reach the door to my apartment, I realize I am not wearing my keys around my neck . I also realize that my house key is in the apartment on my desk in the living room. I am locked out of my house. I Call CJ. Phone is Off. I repeatedly call Chelsea. No Answer. Its after 2am... what do I expect. I can hear Roxie crying for her papa from the inside. So, I call the neighbors to crash at their place. They are out eating. So I sneak into the apartment below me ( Its empty at the moment). I weigh my options from their balcony. No way I can get myself to out balcony. So, I meet up with the neighbors at Kitchen 24. Their first suggestion involved me getting onto the roof, and lowering myself onto the balcony. I checked it out. I would have to swing inwards, otherwise falling to my death. haha. Maybe not that dramatic. PLUS, I figure, if by some freak chance the balcony door was locked, I would be stranded. I would be forced to leap from balcony to balcony like an ape man, most likely plunging to my death. So I veto that idea. Then Jodee has the brilliant idea of calling the apartment manager. DUH. Why did I not do that in the first place? I was afraid to wake her, but she is totally cool. SO, I wake her up, get the extra key, and viola! I am in! I was so freaking relieved. I was smiling ear to ear.
I am such a freak, and a little OCD, when it comes to having my keys, and locking myself out of places. I cant believe I did that! Needless to say, it was very late at this point. And it was very much time for bed. Lets see how fun work is today...
