飲みすぎてる, the weekend and the Infamous ひろめいちば Halloween Party

Well, where shoud i begin from with regards to the weekend? No idea, coz im still trying to recover from it and piece it together! I think it all started after i finished work on friday. It's slowly becoming a tradition of mine to go to the local bar to chat and get pissed with the locals! anyways, went in, got the usual カルピ (fried meat) and a big mug of beer 大ジョッキ!!! after awhile my BOE joined in on the drinks and much drunken chatter was had. in particular there are always two old ladies who are always blind drunk by about 7pm and then go to lose the rest of their pension on the pachinko machines. They claimed that i was to be their new boyfriend. Managed to squirm my way out of that going any further, then went to the local karaoke bar(quite toasted), with one of my students cousins whos about my age and once again out-drank the bastard. Sang some classic tunes with my local postie before crashing at god knows when.

Woke up the next morning with a nice headache and the knowledge that i had to back it up again in Kochi City for the Halloween party at Hirome Ichiba. If i had known what i was getting myself in for i probably would not have gone out the night before, but hey, im getting back in training.
Got the call from Flinty around 2 to go pick him and Jess up to take them into the city. Got there and went and watched the Halloween Genki musical (classic, i think Kelly almost popped out of her top). we then met up with Dan and had a cheeky beverage before going to his and getting sorted out for the night! Me and the Longstaff both came without not much of a costume, so after finding random things at Dans apartment, The Longstaff was a santa suit wearing reindeer and i was a VB Hat wearing old guy with a beard and judo suit top. was later named the leprachaun by somebody! tho i just called myself CONFUSED 混乱（こんらん） to all the Japs and foreigners that asked. Best costume of the night out of Dan, the longstaff, flinty and myself, went without a doubt to Dan, the Chicken/Elephant man. Flinty was a good second, being some jap pilgrim (later turning into a disappearing/bike stealing/break and enterer...hehe). after a few beverages at Dans, we headed into town and went to some yakiniku place and started on the all-you-can-drink （飲み放題 nomihoudai)　course. After much banter and beverages and having all looked at that hot chick near the entrance, we were already quite merry so we headed to the BIG ECHO for more nomihoudai karaoke with Jess and Angela, and i felt sorry for them when they saw the state we were already in! Dan wasted no time in belting out with the tune Back in the USSR. from there it became blurry, but i know there were many drinks had, i think i had an arse outage at some stage and there was some halfnakedness towards the end. Oh and the traditional ACDC's Back in Black.

After leaving karaoke and hiding the picture of beer we had in the karaoke booth behind a black see-through scarf and then Dan's chicken suit, we headed to Hirome in quite the festive spirit. We met up with many other Kochi JETs who were in some classic costumes like Dom "the Dominator" Bonnet and Yarun in drag (sporting some nice fake titties). The longstaff and I couldnt get over some of the fit Japanese women that were there.....anyways. Anyways, the night went on and there was much drinking and dancing. After awhile i noticed that i hadnt seen Flinty for awhile and realised that he had climaxed early and somehow got home only to realise that i had the key to Dans apartment so he broke in through his window and looks like he passed out. Anyways, the remainder of us lasted till the doors shut and then did the trip to Mos Burger for a feed before catching a cab home. Got home and thankfully saw that Flinty had gotten home okay so then proceeded to abuse him with the traffic cone he stole during a past night out. Filled in the blanks on how he got home then we all pretty much passed out only to suffer the next morning for the night of nomihoudai drinking and dancing in stupid looking costumes. Checked out Flintys camera and found a classic movie he took of us all doing the YMCA at karaoke....classic. Then went back to the scene of the crime at hirome for lunch with Jess and Emily before driving home to chill out. Being Australian, we dont really celebrate halloween too much but id have to say that it was a classic night out and it should become a monthly tradition! hehe

the hat Dan is proudly wearing is what i wore out. But check out the chicken suit, classic! he managed to keep the suit on for most of the night...hehe

This is the beard i wore on some random Japanese bird. Actually i think i got nearly everyone i met to try the thing on. I think i mustve comsumed heaps of hairs from that beard. The white beard people, the white santa beard.
