When we were in college my roommate Jon and I could drink all night long. Beer, shots, vodka, whiskey – it didn’t matter. Sit it in front of us and we’d drink until 6am with you. This weekend Jon and I went to LA to visit our friends Laef and Allison and I realized something had changed. Maybe we’re getting older but we just couldn’t seem to party as long as we used to.
Here’s some action shots from separate nights in LA:
Jon starts fading (night 1)
Jon falls asleep with a beer in his hand (night 2)
Jon in the worlds most uncomfortable position (night 3)
Jon takes a time out at the bar and is oblivious to Allison
Not to be outdone Allison decided to hammer 8 bottles of sake and pass out in the sushi restaurant.
Which reminds me of her last visit to St. Louis (at Lumiere Place)
You’ll notice none of these include pictures of me. There is some rumor of me falling asleep with a full beer in my hand and then spilling it on myself but with no photographic evidence I doubt it happened.
Update: You can read Allison’s account on her blog.

This weekend I’m heading off for a well deserved and long overdue vacation. The walls of my cubicle are closing in and I’m ready to spend some time outside.
This is going to be a fairly unusual trip since It’s going to be a two part, bi-coastal, 10 day vacation. First I’m heading off with the fam to Orlando to stop by EPCOT for some drinking around the world and possibly to the Magic Kingdom or Universal for some coasters. Then we’ll head to Miami to chill on the beach, drink fruity drinks, and gawk at the models.
After I’ve had my fill of family time (which shouldn’t take long) I’ll be jumping on a cross country flight to LAX for a college roommate reunion. 3/4 of the team will be there — me, Laef, and Jon. We’ll have to be sure to call Chris and remind him he’s stuck in some mid-Missouri shithole while we’re stalking Lindsay Lohan. This part of the trip doesn’t exactly have a finite itinerary. I just have written down: 1) Dodgers Game 2) General Debauchery. The rest is just details. I’m sure Laef’s fiance Allison will be a major instigator. Pray for my liver.
No posting here for the next 2 weeks or so. I *might* be updating twitter from the iPhone but who knows. You can keep up with my tweets here:

Peace out biotches!
