Happy Hour turned into Happy All-nighter!

I met some old friends of mine at a US Open party for Phil Mickelson at Jack's La Jolla. Mark stayed home with the kids to give mama a break. He gets his next week when my Mom and I take the kids to Yosemite. It was fun. Hosted bar for two hours (hosted by Grey Goose Vodka). Phil didn't show up. He had an 8AM tee time, so we didn't think he would, but it was fun. Jack's in a pretty swanky place. I felt like I was in an episode of Nip/Tuck. With the $14 martini's I was glad it was hosted, although, I am not much a drinker (more the driver type because I get a headache from one drink). We had a really good time. It was nice to see everyone. I didn't take pics, I brought my camera, but never ended up using it. Wish I would have taken a couple pics now.

It was nice to catch up with my friends that I hadn't seen in years. I had planned to leave to go home between 10 and 11, but ended up going to a different bar for what was supposed to be one drink for my friend Brian (I was drinking double ice waters on the rocks). We ended up meeting the owners of second bar we went to Jose's and they kept feeding Brian shots. I guess it was also the allure of the pretty bartenders as well. Since I was the DD, I was patient at first (Brian was having a good ole time and I didn't want to be the party pooper), but then I started to get really tired and it was time to go. It was much later night than I anticipated, but still really fun. I had really debated whether or not I was going to go, but I'm glad that I did. Paying for it today, because I still had to get up at the normal time, but it was still good to catch up with my old friends.
