The Mind Erasers weren't mine

Random observances from last night:

• Rain makes my hair double in size. And there’s not much I can do in a bar to contain it.
• Drinking three Mind Erasers in 20 minutes may make you want to stand on a chair.
• Standing on a chair will get you in trouble.
• If you get in trouble for standing on a chair, the odds that you’ll get escorted from the premises will quadruple. The rest of your group will continue to party without you.
• I’m much better at playing rapid-fire Quarters than regular Quarters.
• There are other people in Philadelphia who like country music! But I couldn’t convince any of them to see Brad Paisley with me tonight.
• I’m not as young as I once was. The next day is more painful now.
• Potbelly closes at 9. Eating dinner earlier would have been a great idea.
• Hot guys in suits are excellent eye candy but they can make you want to gouge out your ears with a blunt knife if they sing karaoke.
• If you break any of the karaoke rules posted by the karaoke stage, the Karaoke Troll will rush from the other side of the bar to yell at you.
• There’s an unbroken umbrella in a bar, just waiting to be photographed for Katie. And of course it started raining, which reminded me that I forgot it.
• Do you know what’s really funny? Seeing someone walk onto a Septa bus carrying a case of beer.
• There’s scuttlebutt about a potential road trip Monday to see NKOTB on the Today Show.

Did you learn any life lessons last night? Please share! If not, make it a point to learn some during this fabulously long weekend.
