Jay-Z
And the reason I was so tired Friday was because I went out to a club called Scopa on Thursday night. It was a late, late night. My friend’s friend’s fiance’s cousin was working the door and got us in to a private party on the second floor. It was going off! I feel kind of bad because I can’t remember the name of the techno DJ who’s 30th birthday it was. But, I did meet and talk to a New York Knicks player and Jay-Z was there. It was the 2nd time in 3 months that Jay-Z was partying in the same place as me. The difference was that on Thursday night I was drinking huge $15 drinks for free.. .liquid courage, you might say, because I walked up to Jay-Z and talked to him.
Before work on Friday I was so sick. I woke up and puked, took a shower and puked, drank a sip of water and puked. I couldn’t even think about taking the subway to work so I braced myself to go outside. I went out the door, locked the lock, ran down the stairs, outside, looked for a cab, saw one, went back inside, ran up the stairs, unlocked the door, ran to the bathroom and puked. Finally, I got myself outside and got a cab. On the way to work, the cab was racing down the West Side Highway, we were side-by-side with a sweet Mercedes. I rolled the window down and puked out the window.
jigga wha?
ok. im going to write this here because someday ill forget and that would suck if i couldnt remember how my conversation with the jay-z went.
so i walked up to him.. and i was really pretty drunk .. and i actually said DUDE!.. i called the jigga man “dude!”!!!!!!! so i’m like “dude! you were at the club i was at on new years!!” jay-z kind of smirked and said “i was at all the clubs on new years!” and then.. hmm. .. crap! i cant remember already. i might have said soemthing else.. then he took my hand and shook it and said “enjoy.. enjoy.. ” then i probably said something very polite and midwesternish like “you too!” and walked away.
which knicks player?
i dont know which knicks player. i remember one had corn rows and a blackberry pda. he was probably famous but i ran up to him and was like “OHMYGAWD! is that a blackberry!?!” and i think i tried to touch it and he pulled away and walked off. hrmph!
Latrell Sprewell? He’s from Milwaukee! He plays for Minnesota now.
he’s also the player that tried to strangle his coach.
