After a long 9 month absence from the province of Ontario Ming returned from Vancouver for a 4 day stay in Kingston re-uniting 2/3rds of 562 (Me, Stu, Adam, and Ming). Much fun was had especially in the art of destroying ourselves with alcohol like we used to do. Compressed into one evening Friday night became a gong show the likes of which I haven't seen in a great many months perhaps over a year.
It began out quite simply enough with a bottle of wine with our Curry Original dinner. It was decided to make things interesting that at the first 4 bars we went to we'd order drinks for one another and make sure they were drinks we hadn't tried before. First stop was martinis at the Tango. Mine was some raspberry and coffee flavored concotion which contained two sweedish berries at the bottom. Next stop was the King Street Sizzle (a round of random shots), next stop The Juice nightclub with 4 vodka drinks from the bar, finally The Keg's bar for another round of shots, these one premium brands. Next stop Windmills and drinks of our own choice. After that things get really interesting when we stop at Megalo's. Our server upon finding out we intended to drink, offered us a very premium and very bad drink... Absinthe.
Absinthe was very interesting in which we poured our shot over the sugar cube which we lit on fire and waited till it carmerlized before stirring the camelized sugar into the glass and shooting it. Absinthe is 70proof. It's pretty lethal. Then she gave us free drinks by presenting us with two challenging puzzles to complete. As well we did two more additional shots there.
Now being sufficiently gone from the Absinthe and other shots we continued on to Sol Latino for a tropical drink and then last stop at Filthy McNasty's for $2.50 drinks. Instead of wisely ending the night we head back to Adam's place way over by West campus. Everything we drank hits us, Adam throws up. Stu and I leave Middleton's at 3am and decide to walk to McDonalds. We're so drunk we can't figure out where we are and become lost temporarily. 4am we finally reach McDonald's and eat it. It is delicious. Still ridiculously drunk we finally head home. I get into bed at 5am, and fall asleep just as many people wake up for work.
Wake up at 1:30pm on Saturday. We meet at Stooleys. All our hungover. Pictures will follow eventually when I get them from Ming....
1 week left to awesome summer.
