My Epic night in Los Angeles

*Fujative*

Active member
I moved to LA in October. Since then I really haven't had time to "party." All I do is work, but I love it. Recently I got a full time job at Technicolor. Now that I have 3-4 days off a week I now have time to go out. Before 2 nights ago, I never had more then 2 beers at a bar in LA because I hardly went out. I was talking to my old manger and he told me to write this story down so I remember it later it life.I haven't proof read it so please mind any errors.

Enjoy.

January 19, 2012

Started in our apartment at about

7p. I started off with a Newcastle deuce, and Tim had a Miller Light tall boy.

Those beers went by pretty quick, as we were getting ready to go out. I grabbed

another Miller Light tall boy before we hit the road. Downed it pretty

quickly. We left are apartment at around

7:20p.

We arrived to Shannon’s apartment

at about 8p. Found a tiny spot to park my Fiesta; I barely could fit. Straight out of a comedy movie, I went

forward and reverse slowly moving into my spot. After 2 phone calls and a text,

no answer from Shannon. While Tim and I were waiting, the alcohol started to

kick in – bathroom. Now. Tried calling again however no answer. Hopefully she

isn’t going to stand us up. We find a tiny alleyway and play watch guard as we

take turns to unload behind a wall. Finally my phone starts to ring and sure

enough it Shannon.

Turns out she was blow-drying her

hair, and that’s why she didn’t answer the phone. She meets us at the front gate with your

adorable little wiener dog, Chloe. She takes us up to her apartment, and the

place was like a 5 star hotel, incredible. While we are in the elevator,

Shannon warns us that she doesn’t have a couch or anything because her rent is

too high. Brings us into her place and

it was amazing. We talk about a bunch of stuff for around 30 minutes while

drinking beer and Shannon finishes getting ready. There goes 2 more beers, 4

total.

Just before we leave, Shannon yells

“shots!” so both of us do 2 shots of some kind of Vodka and head out. Now I’m

feeling it. I hand the keys over to Tim and he takes us to the bar. Now, mind

you that this is the first time I have drank more then 2 beers since I was in

Los Angeles in October. The last time I was drunk was my going away party –

which I won’t even get into. As we pull up next to the bar right in the center

of downtown, the alcohol starts to hit. Woof, its going to be a long night.

Walk into the bar and it was pretty

chill. No loud music, no dancing just a small little social bar. Shannon then

tells me that she doesn’t have any money until here paycheck tomorrow; good

timing. Well since I am working at Technicolor getting a steady paycheck, I’ll

get the first round. So I buy us each a beer. Of course, Shannon said “Shots!”

So I go ahead and order 2 tequila shots. Turns out that one shot was the drink

that broke the Evan’s sober level. Shannon didn’t want a tequila shot… so she

yells at the bartender to just make her a girly one. Bottoms up.

I really don’t remember leaving that

bar, however I do remember Tim saying that we were going to another bar to meet

his friend Andi and Will. (blackout) Oh, I’m now at the second bar. Hello, Andi

and Will. I remember going to the bar with Tim and Shannon, once again ordering

us each a beer, and a shot for Shannon and I. Splendid. That’s all I really

remember of that bar. Fun times.

Next thing I remember is sitting on

the curb with Shannon, as my car is pulled over, along with 2 cops behind us.

Fuck. Then I woke up in bed next to Shannon, with a grilled cheese on my chest.

What the fuck happened.

So, lets start with waking up at

8a. First off, it turns out nothing happened between Shannon and I, cool. Tim

is in jail because he got a DUI. Damn it. So together we start to piece the

night together. Wait. There is a grilled cheese on my chest. Turns of Shannon

cooked it for me last night, burnt her hand on the oven, gave it to me to eat,

and I rejected it. So I feel asleep with it on me. However I did eat it when I

woke up. Alright, back to the main problem – Tim is in jail and my car is

impounded. I call random LA jail, and I go on a run around for 30 minutes

finding the jail he is in. They give us his booking number and say to call back

in 2 hours to see if he can he picked up. I then find out the pound that my car

is in. However the cops tell me that there could be a 30 day hold on it. WTF. I

call the pound, and since I am the owner, it was ok to pick it up. I get out of

bed, and woah. Terrible hangover. Nope, still drunk. Awesome. I ask Shannon if

I puked and she told me I did in her bathroom. No mess. I look at my phone,

first thing I do is check my bank account. $28.00, $31.00 and $38.07. Damn it.

I must have bought drinks all night long. I look at my text messages. To an

unknown person, I typed “Fuck……….” “Ahhhh…….” “4 shots 7 beers” “6 shotgts

9?bedts o” “Drip city” “Drop city” “Imy friend again assets” “wtf” “Dude my dd

for atrestedo” What the hell is drip or drop city? I have no idea.

She gives me a glass out water and

says that before we get my car, we need coffee and food. I agree. We head off to a local Starbucks and my head

is killing me. The sun is super bright and I feel really nauseous. Make it to

Starbucks and as we are walking out of the car, I tell Shannon that I feel like

I’m going to puke. We hurry inside and Sharron goes and asked for the bathroom

key. I tell her to order me food and I want a Java Chip Frap. Oh know, I feel

it. I steadily walk to the bathroom enter the code, green light to get in, no.

Locked. Someone is inside. Ok, Evan just calm down. Nope. Up comes the vomit,

and I hold my mouth closed. Swallow. Gross. Ok, I need to get in the bathroom.

Round two, up comes more vomit, mouth closed. A little leaked out. Swallow.

Jesus this is gross. I really need to get in the bathroom. I try the code

again, green light turns on, but the door is still locked. Round three

commencing. Up comes the vomit, much more then the past two times, mouth

closed, fail. It squirted through my nose all over the wall. Luckily I was

hiding and no one saw me. I wipe off my nose and head outside. Find a nice

little hidden corner and let it all rip. I used the front facing camera on my

iphone to make sure I looked okay. Walked back into Starbucks, looked at

Shannon and just smiled. Received my drink and food, took a bit, nope. No mood

to eat. I try to force it down, and the nauseous feeling kicked back in. I’m

done. We leave and head to the pound. In the car I told Shannon and she just

laughed her ass off about what happened.

We make it to the pound, and walk

inside. Starting to go in the process of getting my car back and I need to registration.

Well that is in the car I told the clerk. So she tells me to head out to the

gate and wait. Someone will be there in a minute. I go out, and wait. The gate

opens and an old dude is waiting. He tells me that I need to walk in front of

him and I can only grab of my registration, nothing else. I open my car door,

and everything was trashed inside. LAPD searched the shit out of my car, and of

course they didn’t find anything. I’m not a druggie. I open my glove box, grab

my registration, and head back. The clerk then tells me the cops never turned

it a key for the car. What the hell. [Lightbulb turns on in my head] Oh yeah, I

remember sitting on the curb asking the cop if I could search my car for my car

key because they could find it. LAPD was too pissed that I had a push start,

and they had no idea what that was. I also remember asking the cops if I could

get my breathalyzer because I wanted to see how high I could blow. They laughed

at me and said no. I ask the clerk to search my car for the key; it has to be

in there. She says ok and I go through the same process. Open the frond

passenger door and start searching. No luck. Open the rear left door and it was

stuck. I force it open and my crossover pops out of my door hanging from the

speaker wire. [Lightblub] I remember when we got pulled over the cop tried to

get Tim out of the front seat. No go. All of my crossovers in each of the 4

doors is jacked up since they are so big. I brought my car into a Best Buy out

here and he fixed the rear left one. However now the driver and rear right

doors don’t open. I had to get out of the passenger door, and Tim had to crawl

across to get out. When the cop opened the door for Shannon, she ripped the

door open and the cross over popped out. The LAPD was too pissed. They thought

it was shady that these “boxes” were falling from my car, and etc. I told them

what happened and they just kept saying this is shady. In my backseat I found a

cheese grader and 2 drink mixers. [Lightblub] I remember Shannon daring me to

steal those items from the bar. I was drunk so of course I did.

I search the backseat, everything

is thrashed, and low and behold, I find my car key in the backseat. Dumb cops.

I head back up front, pay the money and get my car out. I meet Shannon back at

her apartment. We kept calling every hour to the police station however no go.

They kept saying call back in a hour. No clue what is going on. Shannon wanted

to go shopping. We headed out and ran around town for a bit. Got back to her

apartment and ordered a pizza. At this time I was feeling better but still

sick. It was nice to have food in my belly though. One of Shannon’s friends

came over to work on a project for school and they needed some supplies, so

they ran out to the store and I stayed and took a nap. At around 4p I get a

call from Tim. We was out. I went right away to pick him up. He was just siting

outside waiting. Got him in my car and heading back to our apartment. He told

me how he was in a cell with a bunch of other people. Had a metal bed and a

blanket and just slept for most of the 15 hours he was in there. Then we

started to talk about the night. According to him, at the second bar I had my

head down on the bar. The bartender told Tim and she was going to kick me out

for sleeping. Tim told me to wake up. I told Tim that I was waiting for my tab.

Tim told the bartender that I was waiting for my tab. The bartender told Tim

that I already paid and was good to go. Ha. Then Tim told me to get to the car,

that him and Shannon would be there in a minute. They go to the car and I’m not

there. WTF. Tim started to look around, and picks his head up. All of a sudden

sees me running, full speed down the street across from us. What the hell was I

doing. Tim yelled at me and I got over to the car. Turns out that the cops

called a cop for Shannon and I to get back to her apartment.

Pretty epic night for my “first”

time going out in LA, and having more then 2 beers. Last night I ended up going

to the bar with a bunch of my friends from work at Technicolor. My supervisor

was there, along with the top end boss. My supervisor tried to buy me a beer. I

laughed and said no, not tonight and told him my story. I never heard a group of

people laugh so hard before. Turns out that my supervisor kept me was a full

time employee, and no longer a 8 week temp. What an awesome 24 hours I had.

Spark Note: Just read it.

that sounds like a truly epic night, sorry to hear about tim's dui. then again if he was at your level it was probably for the best, haha.
 
damn I wanna see this girls apartment. But anyways it sucks when you dont drink for a while and somewhat become a lightweight again. and a cheese grater? lmao out of all thing a cheese grater and the mixer. the grilled cheese part was funny as well, I like how you ate it in the morning like a boss, I know id do the same thing. interesting night was interesting.
 
Why in god's name did you type all that.
No way am I reading it. I'll take your word for it that you had a crazy night in la. I have had those down there myself.
 
Her apartment is crazy. Our apartment is pretty nice, its 1br and Tim and I split it. Rent is $1600. Shannon's was a 2br, and her and her roommate each pay $1200.
 
hahah sick night man! definitely a good one for a first time out, but could have been more epic if you got laid!
 
It sounded like a nice night, but your writing was maybe more of an explanation of events than a well-written story.
 
It was entertaining to read but Not too crazy except the dui which is more dumb than anything. pics of Shannon?? :D
 
i remember my first.....

seriously though. you blacked out and your friend got a DUI. no one got laid. You pay way too much for rent.

not much win in this. Stoked you think you had a good night out. That's cool. But when I read the word epic... I have high expectations.
