Here's an odd one:
I met some coworkers up in the city Wednesday night for some bar hopping. Normally I don't dig on going out late on a "school night", but after about 6 days of staying at work until midnight or later (one of which was an overnighter) in the previous two weeks, I decided I deserved a little break.
Here's a random one:
As we prepared to leave one establishment, fairly late in the evening, in walks the mayor of SF. We didn't stay and hang out with the man or anything, but it was a surreal situation, as the bar was not crowded. I get the idea that this isn't exactly unusual for some folks (the guy is young, recently single, and on Paris Hilton's phone), but I don't exactly get up to the city much or hang out in Mayoral circles.
And now for random and odd:
Having left the scene now dominated by the mayor, we wandered over a block and my happily inebriated coworkers picked up some donuts, because they couldn't find a burrito joint that was open. After inhaling his donut, one of my coworkers just randomly veers into this other bar, wherein we proceed to head to the back, and run into one of our VP's. I kid you not. One of our VP's and a small contingent of other company folks just happened to be in town on business and hanging out in this bar that we serendipitously walk into at some time after midnight.
My colleagues, already particularly intoxicated (me = sober driver), now have an even better reason to keep drinking, and proceed to put their livers into overdrive as we hang out with upper management in a loud, somewhat deserted San Francisco bar late into a Wednesday night. Nobody ended up in jail or fired (that I know of) , and we even got a nice thank you email from the VP the next day, so all's well that ends well. I was home by 2:30am, and at work by 9am. I'm not sure I can say the same for the others, but I didn't have to fight a hangover, either :)
