TMI Thursday: A Messy Cab Ride

I haven’t done a TMI Thursday in a good long time, but my recent weekend of destruction in Baltimore got me re-telling a story to my friends, and I might as well share it with The Internet as well.

Well earlier I talked about how Baltimore nights usually end in spectacular fashion, and last August was no exception.

It was Sarah’s birthday and the MoCo crew and I decided to celebrate at Howl At The Moon during a special “2 for 1″ happy hour.

Well I couldn’t make it up to Baltimore from DC until later that night. In fact arrived with only half an hour left to get those bargain drinks.

My Asian side told me I had to take advantage of a great bargain while it lasted.

Two for the price of one!

Ya I decided to start double fisting.I mean six drinks for the price of three? Think about how much money I’m saving!

As well as how much time I’m saving in regards of my trip to tipsyville.

Of course I kept drinking after the Happy Hour, and a few drinks later into the night it hit me.

I made a big mistake.

I walked down the stairs and stumbled to a place I thought I could sit and get a breather: The steps of nearby Baltimore City Community College.

As I sat there with my head held ups by my hands, a cop walked up to me and told me I had to get going. So I got.

I decided that it might be a smart idea to go back to the hotel we were staying at, so I hailed a Cab and stumbled in. I fed him an address and away we went.

I rolled down the window so I could stick my head out… because I was feeling all my mistakes coming back to me. From the sidewalk it probably looked like a cab with a guy’s head out the window suffering a severe reversal of fortune.

“Are you throwing up!?!” the cabbie asks.

“Nah I’m fine, keep driving,” I respond.

I was pretty good about keeping it out of the actual cab and all over the streets of The Wire.

We arrive at the hotel and I pay him his fee and I stumbled to the room… and realized I didn’t have the room key. So instead of getting another cab I decided to walk all the way back to the bar and rejoin my friends. At that point I walked it off enough to make it back to my friends and act as if nothing had happened.

“Patrick where were you?”

“Oh I was just outside- I needed some fresh air.”

Amazingly enough I wasn’t even the worst one of the group, as all the guys in our crew spent the rest of the night doing what I was doing in the cab.

You have to love Baltimore.
