Halloween: the alternate universe

What the f**k happened last night?

That was the first thing I could think once I was fully awake this morning. I was only going to the theater last night. Can somebody please explain how I ended up in a theater full of Halloween revelers in costume? How I ended up running into a friend I'd been pretty convinced for the past several years was DEAD? Why I was dancing with a drag queen on the stage of the Victoria Theater during a wedding after the show? How I ended up running into a crush on Church St. (or was it 16th St.?) after 1 am? And why we couldn't convince him to hang out with us? How Steph and I wound up in Sparky's at 2 am enjoying breakfast with strangers? And then how we wound up in a cab with other strangers, and ended up getting a ride home from them? And how we wound up not getting home, drenched and exhausted, until 4 am? And how I rallied on four hours sleep to make it through a Cal football game in the pouring rain today? And how, through the rain and the lack of cabs and all the dancing and walking and risen from the dead friends, I managed to have such a blast?

I must have entered some alternate universe when I walked into the Victoria Theater for the Halloween showing of The Rocky Horror Show. Or maybe it was a timewarp. That's the only thing that makes sense.
