just up and watching gladiator for the 50th time. such a good movie, amazing score. i love the battle scene in the opening... probably my favorite scene in a movie, ever. when cyn and i went to see it in the theater, way back when, we were standing up and cheering during the fight scenes. my sister thought we were sick; she was nearly nauseous from the goriness.
last night was interesting. as always, i set out with the intention of hanging out for a bit, then coming home before 1 and going to bed. as always, i get deterred. met up with steph and a random crew at constellation. that place is just amazing. i love it. i love that i can space out my drinks with big glasses of oolong on ice. they make proper drinks, and bring both shaker and chilled glass to the table to pour in front of you. i tried to order a stoli greyhound, but ended up with cranberry juice instead, which steph dubbed the 'UTI cocktail.' drew was there, a recently-arrived brit, duncan, was there, and gary from the lab. we waited and waited for albert and scott - still at work - to show up, but after a couple of hours, i was overdue at de la coast and needing a change of scenery. so off i went.
dan's second night of grown & sexy was quiet. typical, sherry says, of a weekly party. they take a while to ramp up. adam was there, plus his absolutely beautiful friend patience, and this guy duane that we met a while back at velvet, whose insistence on sherry and i 'checkin for the brothers' and placing his hand on the small of my back wears very very thin, very very quickly. i'm not a fan, and both sherry and i give me credit for not expressing myself very carolyn-style and telling him to get his sweaty fucking hands off of me. i do it for the sake of the social situation; he's friends with patience who is dear friends with adam, whom i think is a doll and of course is a good friend of sherry's. and so the molestation continues. there's something really unpleasant about A: a man who is continuously sweating, B: a man who is constantly checking out your ass, and C: a man who leaves copious amounts of saliva on your face when he kisses your cheek, which you didn't ask for in the first place. *shudder*
oh yes, and speaking of sherry:

go, mami!
gregor was also there with his 'assistant,' chi, a very beautiful girl that we are hoping he'll hook up with. what? she's hot.
they give you a bowl of peaches and cream when you show up at grown & sexy, which i think is a cute idea. roses, everywhere. it's hilarious.
