Going out on my own... Always the best way to meet ppl!

I left the apartment at midnight, which b.t.w. is a great time to start the evening out.

I was determined to find a place to park my lovely behind (getting lovelier by the hour since I started going to the gym) and a couple of days ago, while on my way to El Corte Ingles to buy groceries, I had spotted this Irish pub... It was closed, but only understandable, it was too early for Irish coffee! But I knew it was the perfect place to start exploring the local water holes. I wasn't mistaken! Thus, Friday night shoes... here we go! All routes lead to the pub.

After my ill fated attempt to order a cosmo, a "blue lagoon" seemed to be in my nearest future... not bad, I might add. Anyway, half a drink later, and with the power of foresight predicting rush hour coming... I approached Betty, the joint's owner, for some direction on which way should I turn in order to have some fun and meet new people... Her response was nothing short of post haste! She brought her daughter to my corner of the bar, and following introductions she was quick to point Mariana was "the girl"! And indeed she was!

Besides Zona Hermetica, which is sort of a mall containing within its walls a vast array of discos and musical clubs for all tastes, the one that really caught my attention was El Barro. An after hours that opens when everybody else is closing and keeps open until 6 am. My kind of place! Really, just love after hours! The characters you can find in such a place, go from the baroque to the post modernism absurd!

So... Tonight I honestly had planned to stay home and get some zzzz's but, I am so unpredictable... or not?

Who said the word party????? Cause that's where you'll always find me! No doubts about it, whatsoever!
