Catching up.
Halloween has come and gone, and people have been begging me to update my happenings since. Well that’s not true, no one actually asked me anything, but I’m going to fucking tell you anyways. Sorry, I know, no need to swear.
My Halloween actually wasn’t all to wild and crazy kids. I was in Washington DC for work, at an engineering conference where I was the “grown up”. I know right. Me, the “grown up”. I gave some workshops, did some company recruiting, did some binge drinking, a good time had by all.
Actually here’s a secret between you and me, I had to a give a workshop to about 40 student engineers one day of the conference at 3:45 in the afternoon, apparently I went out a little too big the night before because I still hung over and felt like death. No worries, I totally rocked the presentation, but ran to bathroom and puked 2.5 seconds after it ended. Yeah, I’m an adult. Public speaking is my specialty, probably my best skill, regardless of what state my liver is in. And that’s a fact.
My Halloween was interesting…moral of the story is I walked back to my hotel 2 miles in the rain at 5:00am in a short sleeve shirt, in the city where I had no idea where I was going. I was navigating on the rising sun back to my hotel. Unfortunately the story isn’t as awesome as your hoping. I wasn’t doing the walk of shame because I just hooked up with major babes, nope. I was walking back to my hotel at 5:00am because that was a better option than waking up on a strangers couch dressed as Space Ghost. I walked into my hotel where students were gathering in the lobby to catch their shuttles for the airport. They were probably wondering why the guy that interviewed them yesterday was stumbling in at 6am, soaking wet in a short sleeve shirt. Me too. Me too….
I got back to San Diego and immediately saw a flood of Facebook albums bursting with Halloween photos. And me being the creep I am, of course went through all of them. I pulled out a few to make fun of, sorry if you know these people. Remember I’m “Single Steve”, just a internet personality, who’s kind of dick.
For your pleasure:

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHA. I just pee’d my desk. At least you didn’t have to drive everyone all around hell and back on Halloween. So much driving that I ended up going to be sober. Later the next week I came down with swine flu. I will never play beer-pong again.

So, Galileo, (Hey, you did say you were navigating the streets of D.C. using little more than your wits and the rising sun) your blog is a riot, glad to hear you made it back to San Diego in one piece, and with your dignity and eyebrows intact (long story from back in my college days which basically boils down to any dude drunk enough to pass out on the fraternity couch is leaving waaaaaaaayyyyyy to much to chance and trusting that he will have his eyebrows still on his face and not super-glued to random parts of his body… for that matter said frat boy was trusting way too much that he’s not gonna wake up with Mr. Winky super-glued to his thigh)… oh, the joys of being in college, a Greek and no worries outside of having to take a sudden leak and realizing your equipment is otherwise disposed…
