What a Week

So this week has actually been ridiculously entertaining. A quite drunken time with multiple run-ins with the law. Luckily I was never the subject of the investigations, but there's always next week.

So my friend, who shall remain anonymous, got beat up by his girlfriend the other night. When we picked him up at the Max after he got out of jail he was not looking very good. He told us the story once he got into the car. The thing to remember is that what started it all was a fight over Taco Bell food. That's right, two people I know had to go to jail and it all started with Taco Bell. Ridiculous. So basically they were arguing and things escalated and she slapped him in the face. A couple of times. Obviously he got angry and she stopped and then they went home. Once they were home the fight escalated yet again and she managed to jump at him and begin to choke him. At this point my friend began to take all of her things and move them towards the door so that she would just leave because things were obviously over. Well, drunk people can be a bit clumsy, or a bit angry (you have to remember I've only heard his side of the story, although I think it's pretty accurate), and he dropped one of the boxes he was moving and picture frame broke. Well she lost it at this point and flew across the room at him. Her fist connected with his mouth and she hit him with so much force that he now has a chipped tooth. She is now out on bail, last I heard she was being charged with assault, harassment, and some other stuff that won't be fun to deal with. My buddy got locked away for General Mischief. But the most important thing to remember about this story is that he got beat up by his girlfriend.

So I didn't really deal with the police for that one, but it's kept things a bit more interesting. On Wednesday, though, Abel's girlfriend, Jemma, came inside and was talking about how often she's seeing police around our apartment. About ten minutes later we get a knock on the door. We have three police officers who come and begin to question us. Apparently someone I know decided that it'd be a good idea to join the army and then go AWOL while we're fighting a war. They didn't get much information out of us, but a nice little bonus was that the police arrived while Dennis was, uh, powdering his nose? So then he comes out of the bathroom and the police officer is questioning him in the hallway and you can really tell that the stench is getting to him. Then the icing on the cake was that Dennis was wearing his "Cops Lie" t-shirt. I thought it was pretty hilarious. Although getting caught AWOL probably isn't very fun.

As far as what I actually did this week, well, mostly I just went out with friends. Drank a little bit too much. Pauline is now gone, although she said that she's coming back. Last weekend I went to watch "Serenity", I thought it was amazing even if the plot was a little weak in places. I also saw a Tech Nine concert. I was pretty much in a different world during the whole concert, and the alcohol wasn't exactly helping my situation. But then it's the third time I've seen him at the Roseland and there's not really that big a difference each time. Although I thought that this show was much better than the one in May.
