New Year's Eve started out a little rocky. I did something to my back - that caused me to be uncomfortable in any position after about 5 min - so our plan of going to 7th Street Entry / First Avenue was not looking so hot for me. We changed plans - Turf Club (Get Up Johns & Accident Clearinghouse). We were up until 5 am the night before - so with little sleep - we power shopped for the perfect outfits for our night on the town. With stores closing early due to the holiday - we struggled - and crabbiness soon took over - threatening to ruin our night before it even started. Melanie assured me that we could find something for me in her closet - so I gave in - and we decided to eat. We ate at the Macaroni Grill in Rosedale - not very glamourous - but it was yummy! We sat at the bar - and were in and out in 45 minutes! Running back to Melanie's place in NE Mpls, we DID find a great top for me - ended up in jeans - but what the hell - we were going to the Turf Club!
We got to the Turf Club at the perfect time - we got a table - and all was good. Vanhtha showed up for "one drink" - and yadda yadda yadda we left about 1am - on the hunt for food. We first tried Dusty's for HOT DAGOs - but the soldier/waitress/bartender with a dental plan was not having that! No way were we getting HOT DAGO at 1:30 in the morning! Dejected - we headed back to NE - and ordered pizza.
All-in-all it was a great evening - the best to come of it - a Pinky Swear between friends - and Melanie does not need to buy drinks - at least not this week.
