wings, drinks and things

It's my first Friday without him. I still need to get used to not having our Friday date nights. Good thing Mike wanted to go out so together with Ochie, Ros, Vane, AK and Roland (o diba, napasama namin si Roland!), we headed to the Home Depot area in Ortigas to just chill out and relax after a very long and busy week.

We had our 'appetizers' at Buffalo Wings and Things. Their New York's Finest wings (the best seller) is a sure winner (very close to Hooters') and couple it with some cheesy fries and a cold bottle of beer - just perfect! Afterwards, we headed to Jalapeno, the next door Mexican resto, for more drinks and food. Hahaha. Vane read a review of it and it got high praises so why not try it out. And true enough, it was not to disappoint. We ordered their fiesta platter thing which was piled high with nachos, cheese dip, salsa and all other fixings you could think of, plus some pepper steak fajitas and sausages. It was good for for all of us and it came at a very reasonable price. And most importantly, the food tasted real good.

Over margaritas and iced tea, we pretty much just chatted through the night while Mike feasted his eyes on the promo girls walking all over the place. Hahaha. Unfortunately, there wasn't any eye candy (not a single one!) for us girls :( And that's when we got talking that we (in the project) never get any cute guys...ever! Unfair. We were telling Vane that one of the criteria that she should look for when getting resources (read: guys) from the bench is if they're good looking. Ok lang kahit hindi bibo, basta cute! Hahaha.

It was past midnight already when we called it a night. Hoping to end it with at least one cute guy sighting, we had our hopes up that Papa Bogs was on shift at Starbucks. But sadly, he wasn't :( Oh well. But it was a fun night. I needed that. I was pretty out of it the entire week with him leaving, and having my friends around sure made things better.

I got home at around 1:30 am already and since I drank, I was still up and about. I went online to download this week's episodes of Glee and Grey's Anatomy and yey, he was online too! We chatted for a couple of hours, catching up on how the week went and pretty much missed each other even more. It was almost 4am already when I headed to bed (he had to go to the DMV as well to take their license exam).

This was definitely the perfect ending to my week - going out with friends and still ending the day with him even if we were miles (and timezones!) apart... :)
