I did my usual Friday night routine, went out, had some drinks, spoke to some people, had some food and some more drinks. I actually had a pretty great night even. About 3am I decided to head home. Unfortunately I missed my bus by about 10 minutes.

So I decided to see if anyone was interested in sharing a cab over the bridge (it is a $40 cab ride, and if I'm sober enough to catch the bus I'd rather save my money). Anyway this group of guys decide to have an argument about it.

First I was amazed that asking someone "Do you want to share a cab going North" could even something to argue about. Then I got annoyed as they harassed me firstly by name-calling and then by throwing things at me.

Mind you this is with 5 security guards around, none of whom are particularly interested in doing anything. Then one of the group decides to "get in my face" and start hitting me himself.

Well, he tried to. I just started to beat the crap out of him and ending up destroying his shirt. Oh, then the guards decided to pull us apart.

When I was getting on the bus, this guy, in an effort to at least hit me once launched himself past all the guards and tried to land a punch on my head. He missed and got the lady in front of me — unfortunately for her — the guards closing in around me managed to bruise my neck however.
