Doing As I'm Told

So, I've been nagged, harassed, and generally tortured about the fact that I haven't updated my blog since the World Cup started...which has been a while. The truth of the matter is that I haven't had much to talk about. I finished my summer semester, passed everything, and have been working throughout. While I've managed to make a few trips down to Richmond to see April, there really hasn't been much of note in my life. The only excitement has been the drama at work, and that doesn't really count as excitement so much as a headache. Let me explain.
About two weeks ago, we had ABC agents in the bar. Everything was going well enough, everybody was getting carded, we (at least those of us behind the bar) were doing everything we could to make sure that no minors got drinks.
I'm turning to make a drink when I hear breaking glass. I turn, and there are two guys on the ground fighting. Now, I use the term "guys" loosely, because combined these two probably weighed just more than I do. I weigh 230 pounds on a bad day. Dave, one of the bartenders, went over the bar to break up the fight, Taylor, our bouncer, was breaking up the fight, and Mike and Rick, two of my regulars (Mike's a cop), were breaking up the fight. Four grown men pulling apart these two skinny little kids. Sounds like enough right, even with me coming around the corner and pulling people back out of the way. I would have thought so, but it seems that the ABC Agents disagreed, because they came in like a pair of cowboys and pepper sprayed the area. Now, I could understand the use of pepper spray if there had been a large fight, or if they had felt personally threatened...but they were never involved in the fight, never physically tried to remove the combatants, and they weren't even small men. They were both over 6'2", and weighed more then me. Not small men. So yeah, the bar was pepper sprayed, we closed early, didn't make any money, and was coughing up a lung for most of the night from pepper spray inhalation. Good times.
So, yeah, this is the excitement of my life....bar fights.
