Another Casual Friday and the girls and I went to Joshua Tree again. It’s fun, close to my apartment, it was freezing last night, and there’s always a story to tell after a night out to Joshua.
So we get there, say hello to all of our bouncers, walk right in, and the night begins. We got a round of drinks, start dancing and singing, and the look out for guys begins. It’s weird, because every guy I talk to is completely different. I really don’t have a specific type that I look for. So here’s how the night went.
So one of my friends is talking to a guy and he has a friend, so I go over and start talking to him. We’ll call them Boy #1 and Boy #2. I’m talking to Boy #1 and my friend is with #2. #1 seems chill enough, from L.A., so he’s laid back, good conversation, and not bad on the eyes either. My friend goes Boy#2 is a nice Jewish boy. I’m like clearly, he looks Jewish, he’s wearing glasses to the bar, and he lives in Murray Hill. Enough said. Boy #2 starts getting all claustrophobic and needs to leave. YOUR IN NYC AT A BAR. EVERY PLACE IS GOING TO BE PACKED ON A FRIDAY NIGHT. Move out of the city than. He walks out, but boy #1 gets my number.
So than, boy #3 and #4 come along. My friend and her guy were hilarious. Drunk, singing 80’s music at the top of their lungs, while me and my guy we’re enjoying are drinks and talking. They were completely different from the first 2 guys. They were very preppy innocent white boys. Mine was raised on the Upper East Side and the other is from a wealthy area in Connecticut. They met at boarding school and both went to Cornell. Oh okay, smart, wealthy, both work in finance. They just reminded me of guys straight out of a movie. My friend and her guy made out. The guys left, he got her number, but my friend definitely didn’t want him to leave. He was just such a pretty boy. So on to the next one’s.
The strangest ones of the night were boy #5 and boy #6. They walk in and start talking to us right away. My guy is an actor, so of course I laugh it off because every “actor” is really probably working at a restaurant. He tells me how he used to work at a restaurant., but now he is making money acting. Okay sure.
So I can smell his cologne, and I called him out right away for what he was wearing. Abercrombie Fierce. Are you a 15 year old boy that just started wearing cologne? He couldn’t believe I called him out on it. And he was wearing a shirt that said “For Rent.” His shirt just screamed Hi I’m a tool bag. And after talking to him for 10 minutes he tried to make out with me already. That’s a 21 year old boy for you. Did I give you the impression I wanted you to stick your tongue in my mouth? I don’t think so buddy.
So he tells me that the friend he is with is a male stripper. WHAT? A male stripper? I wouldn’t go around telling people that. My friend and him made out and she totally wasn’t into it so we did what any girl would do and we used the “We’re running to the bathroom we’ll be right back.” So my guy tells me he’s going to get me a drink while we’re gone. I don’t care if I’m into you or not a free drink is a free drink. Well he ended up with two drinks to himself. Me and my girl disappeared after the bathroom and walked out of the bar. My guy saw though because we made quick eye contact. I don’t give a shit. Have a great night with your male stripper friend, maybe he’ll give you a show later.
Overall it was a good night, met some good one’s and not so good one’s, but that’s life. I love meeting new people whether they’re claustrophobic, a white preppy boy, a 21 yr old dumb ass, or a male stripper. That’s what makes life interesting.
Thanks Joshua Tree 🙂
