Denver Night Life





Night life out here rocks! Chris and I actually went to my new hometown bar: Horseshoe Lounge for happy hour on Thursday. Half price drinks, any drink: no exclusions. Translation: ridiculously cheap! After that, we headed over to the Denver Improv and saw Jim Breur. Think Half Baked. Let me tell you: if you liked him on SNL or in Half Baked, you will love his Stand Up! I almost fell out of my chair laughing, he was so hilarious! So if he comes into your town you should seriously see him. Tix were $25 a pop, but SOOOO Worth It!

We then headed over to the Cowboy Lounge after that b/c Thursday nights are Lady's Night. Oh, and no cover b4 10 and the only dress code is: I guess there really wasn't one. Lady's drink free all night on Thursdays, so if the females ever come out here, make sure you make it out for a Thursday night. The atmosphere was very country in there, and there was a bunch of good-looking cowgirls in the place, but I got shot down on numerous occasions. That's ok, b/c I've got plenty of time to get my game on out here.

Friday, Chris and I met up with our friend Katie & here boyfriend Glen at his place. We went to the Keg Steakhouse with them and yet another Glen (yup Glen had a friend: Glen). Both Glen's actually played lacrosse at Denver University, so I already have an in to start playing when it gets to springtime.Oh and Katie also brought out her attractive lawyer friend, Kelly. Excellent! The steaks were good, and the table banter was more than a little entertaining. Katie got her fare share of Chris time. I guess she forgot what it was like to hang out with the three of us. I believe she said that hanging out with the two of us was like hanging with her siblings b/c she seems to always have to be defending herself around us? I don't know what that's all about...

After that we went to Maloney's which was no cover. Got there at 10:30 I think. 32oz. of Guiness is only $9. Awesome! I love it! We got pretty drunk last night, and Chris luckily stopped drinking at about 12:30 so he will be able to drive today. Katie, Glen, Kelly and myself ended up back at Glen's place at 1? I really don't know what time we got back there. The party did not stop just b/c we weren't at the bar. Glen cranked up the tunes, and had an 18 pack of Coors Light so we dented that thing back at his place! We drank til 2:30 or 3 in the morning. And there was dancing involved. Not much else. I passed out on his comfy couch, and woke up this morning at about 8:45, had some water, watched me some ESPN. Then called up Miller, or he called me... It doesn't really matter. Went to meet him at Katie's place since that's where he's been staying all week long. As I was leaving Katie had to take Kelly back to her car. Unfortunately for the Lawyer, Kelly, she has some work to do today. I believe she almost cried when thinking about it this morning. I would too, I've definitely been in that boat before!

Reality is about to kick in though b/c Chris left this morning to make the long drive back to SD alone. I don't know how I could've done this whole thing without him. The Best Man I know! I met Chris for Waffle House this morning before he headed out. Got the hangover special: coffee, waffle, and grits. I start real life on Monday when I work with my Cousin, but I am still in the excited state. Plus it's a gorgeous day out today. 60 degrees and sunny! I think I will have to be getting outside today and do some grocery shopping since I am now officially a Denver local. Enjoy life and the beach and sunshine in SD everyone! I'll be out in SD in December for a little bit, so... See the SoCal family then!
