It's about 7 pm. Our new friends say they're going out to grab dinner but will be back shortly since we're all going out tonight. Great! We'll just go have a brewski and hang out.
Fast forward to 9:30. We're fading fast. I look at her, she looks at me an we both know it: it's sleepy time. The time in which you become a pumpkin is inversely proportional to your age. This little equation means we're ready to hit the hay at about 9 pm. So we decide we'll just head off to bed. Our new friends won't miss us. Besides, the 'party' is tomorrow night.
It's about 9:45 and the girls (our new friends) have returned and say they're having a beer at the resort bar. We decide to join them thinking that'll be a polite way for us to back out of tonight's festivities.
It's 10:24. We notice people walking around in outrageous costumes. Carolyn grabs the iPhone and asks father google 'when is the full moon party?'
Yes you are correct: the full moon party is tonight. Now it's the 4th quarter with 2:00 left. We have to put our game faces on. So that's what we're doing.
Now let's go over the cornucopia of mistake we made today:
- woke up early
- spent all day at the beach in the sun
- got incredibly sun burned
- had a small dinner
- did not purchase alcohol prior to a large alcoholic event.
- did not Pre-game.
Despite all the odds, Mrs blue and I are 2 beers into what will probably be a very long night. We're dressed for success and getting ready to apply our neon paint :)
Did I mention that the ONLY reason we came to this island is for the full moon party? Seriously we were about 15 minutes from sleeping through the party. Thanks Rebecca!!!
