Last Night
Our team had a little party yesterday after work. Open bar and ‘organized talking’ as my creative director coined it. It was a good time and I probably had at least 2 too many jack and cokes. The story gets better as I hop in a cab to meet up with sonya, who is at a co-workers going away party.
As I step out of the cab and cross the street to head to Lolita bar, 3 people start screaming at me to get out of the way. Go! Go! they scream. As I’m pretty drunk at this time it takes me a minute to translate the screaming into and actionable item. At the very moment I finally understand what they are saying I hear 3-5 large explosions and/or gunfire. Now I’m totally at a loss for what the hell is going on and think maybe I should have just gone home or stayed at the work party. This all takes place within 10 seconds.
After I round the corner I notice that people are laughing at me (not with). Turns out Tina Fey and Steve Carell are filming thier new movie “Date Night” and I was walking right as they were filming some sort of gunfire scene.
Funny retrospectively. Scary at the moment.
