Being social leads to good things - or at-least a swim at 1AM.

I like being social. It always leads to good things. Last night I was sitting outside my room on my laptop mostly amounting to nothing when two folks asked if I would like to join them in the room next door. They said they were just hanging around and having some drinks. After a little thought I decided it couldn't hurt to meet some new people. I tried to run to the liquor store (yes I actually ran) to get some drinks but I missed them by about five minutes. I ended up coming back and just going over with a can of coke and chatting with them. After all the introductions I was give a couple Jagerbombs to get started and then we played Kings Cup. After everyone seemed to give up on Kings Cup we started playing I have never. This game all but stopped my drinking because I have not lived a very exciting life apparently. 

We eventually decided to go over to the bar two doors down and grab a drink. By this point it was about 12:30AM and I had  seven or eight Jagerbombs and followed it up with a beer at the bar. The bar closed down around 1AM and we decided it was time for a swim. That is correct at roughly 1AM this morning we all dawned swim trunks and swam in the ocean for about 20 minutes. I was the only one that kept my swim trunks on. I am waiting on the pictures from this little outing from the english girl that had a camera. There is many picture of us four guys having the time of our lives in the water in the early hours of the morning. Good times.




A point of reference I would like to make is that swimming like that after a night of drinking is the quickest way to achieve complete sobriety and also avoid any unpleasantness the next morning.
