So last night I went to karaoke with jenhowell and common_as_stone and some friends. Including Jarrod and his new girlfriend.

Eep.

I did end up talking to both of them, which makes only the second time I'd spoken to Jarrod since I broke up with him. They seem happy together.

But I also drank a gin'n'tonic and two long island iced teas, after a day of being steadily buzzed from beer after a bike move, and a stop at the Hungry Tiger with Shawn. By the time I left karaoke, I was just plain drunk. Why didn't I just stick with beer? WHY WHY WHY.

After jenhowell's brother dropped me off at Shawn's, I babbled at him for a little bit and then passed out.

Woke up with an awful hangover. Shawn and I walked to Fred Meyer, where I bought anti-nausea stuff and crackers. I talked to jenhowell and decided to skip the wedding ceremony itself because I felt so awful. Also, I was still in flip-flops, and the ceremony was at Punchbowl Falls, which involves a two-mile each way hike.

I felt (and still feel) absolutely terrible about the whole thing. Plus, I'd been looking forward to her wedding. But nooooo, I had to be a drunken idiot and then spend all morning at Shawn's house trying to decide whether or not I should just make myself puke.

I did go to Nicholas restaurant with everyone, though. And I did eat, which I think has helped settle my stomach somewhat. I still might walk up to People's and get some ginger ale or something.

Shawn is moving into the house known at the Kitten Shack on Tuesday. This morning he was packing, while I nibbled saltines and napped. He found his high school Senior yearbook, and showed me his picture. OH MY GOD. He graduated the year before I started high school, but had I known him back then, I would have had the hugest crush on him ever. Jesus.

3 helpdesk positions open, Legacyhealth.org under "careers"

I didn't see anything labeled "helpdesk."

[cacophonous-joy.livejournal.com]

maybe it's labeled something else under the clerical section?

Well, thanks for making me feel a little better about getting so sick at Seadogs!
I got overheated, and drank three tequilla shots followed by mystery pirate drinks, and woke up in a hot tent so sick I had to go lay down all morning in the shade of a trailer by the biffies, nearly incapacitated, unable to keep even water down. It was so embarrassing and depressing. And I have been somewhat sick ever since---it just messed me up all sorts of ways and has me obsessing about what went wrong the worst and how I could have fixed it.
So, yeah, don't feel so bad.

I currently still feel queasy. I'm going to a brewpub to watch a presentation by some long-distance cyclists, the ones who were at my house Friday. I don't know how I'm going to manage being around food and beer.
