One bourbon, one scotch, one beer:
I was chastised for not mentioning one of the best highlights of the Artwalk: the drunk guy on the street. See, if you look in the photo in yesterday's post, you can see a big giant window behind my pretty little head. That big giant window faces Main Street. On Saturday afternoon, there was a dude walking down Main Street, all drunkified, arguing with his girlfriend. Then he decided it would be a good idea to lie down in the street and roll around. After his horrified girlfriend finally got him to stop doing that, he proceeded to continue down the street, and when I say "continue down the street", I mean "wander in the middle of the road yelling and waving his arms at the passing vehicles". One car stopped, and Drunky Drunkerson started yelling at the driver, and the passenger got out, and at this point there were six of us crowded into my window staring down the street, rooting for him to continue flipping out within our line of sight. What can I say? There's never a dull moment in my neighborhood!
Later that evening, we talked to a guy who told us that he'd talked to Captain Drunktacular earlier at a party that was going on during the Artwalk. Apparently he was a frustrated screenwriter or some other creative type, got really drunk, spilled wine all over himself, and left. That's when he put on his nice live street theater performance for us.
Bravo, Mr. Drunkster. I salute you for flailing about in the street for our amusement.
