The text arrived while I was on my way back to the office from CVS.
My schedule was so hectic this week that I had to use my lunch break to buy Father's Day cards. Ever since college graduation, life keeps throwing all these responsibilities my way. What's up with that?
Fortunately, the message was an invite to grab drinks with friends after work. Sounded like a great idea, you gotta love happy hour!
Then I remembered about the cards. What was I gonna do with them all night? I weighed my options. It looked like they'd have to come along for the ride.
And so armed with my small CVS baggy, I met everyone in Times Square. Generally, its best to navigate the Friday Happy Hour cautiously or else you risk burning out too soon. Then you're calling it a night at 8PM and that's just not right.
Of course I wouldn't let that happen and so I paced myself accordingly. A few hours later, the crowd cleared and I was left with my friends Joe, Dan and another Joe.
We were caught in that in between period where it's too early to call it quits but not late enough to hang with the night owls. So we decided to make the call. That's right, it was going to be an OGNO. An Official Guys Night Out.
We busted out the patron shots and got right to work. Then we hopped around the city from one place to the next like makin' memories. It was good times.
A pulsating hangover greeted me the next morning and yet I felt refreshed. Every once in a while ya need a good OGNO to keep balanced.
I even made it through the whole night with my Father's Day cards completely in tact. That's Sprezzatura!

ReplyDeletetequilla is always the right ingredient for a fun night!
ReplyDeleteWhen did you eat dinner? Foregoing dinner is definitely not Sprezzatura.
