Purim with Nadav

In an interesting turn of events, everyone somehow ended up dressing the same. Completely by chance.
In their respective groups:
The hippies; our madricha, shoshannah, and arielle k
The tourists; Jake Arnold and Seth
The Holy Trinity; Georgia as an angel, Maya as a ghost, and me as God)
The pin-up girls; Leigh, abby, and Hannah Skahill
The peter pan crew; Rebekah hoffer and Danielle Nachowitz as Tinkerbell, David as PP
The leopard people; Sarah steinberg, Ariela, Yarden
Stereotype Israelis; Martin the Brit as a Hassidic boy, Zach as a soldier
Miscellaneous; Nofar as pocahantus and GingerJon as a basketball player (with a basketball taped to his hand)

Nadav comes over and I tell him he is a father. He negates this comment.
Nadav "Oh, you don't know me."
Me "I wanna get to know you."
Nadav "Ok let's do shots."

10 shots later, I notice... I am much drunker than Nadav. And my mouth has gone numb. Why isn't he drunk?
Me "Why aren't you drunk?"
Nadav "Because I have responsibilities."

Ohhboy.

We go to the street party. except it isn't a street party.
It is however, a mosh pit, of Jokers and trannies, that encompasses the ENTIRE streets of Florentine and beyond.
We sit down after an hour of the craziness that is Purim in Tel Aviv, and Nadav thinks I am falling asleep. He is wrong, but Georgia is attacked by new hopes and dreams in the form of her thinking I needed an XL. There was a small warning ("Ok, BYE!") and she was off. And not just ambled away, she was full-on SPRINTING.
Nadav looks down at me and says, "You ready?"
I sigh. "Yep."
He takes my hand and we hurtle after her.

After a couple hours, the "responsibilty" part came to a tantamount climax. We are taken home.
I think Nadav has accepted the package deal that is Georgia and myself because we ended up pushing Georgia's bed next to mine and all sleeping in one big bed.

Arsim Park

Liz, Shoshanna, Me, Arielle, Georgia on a bench in a park. It's night. Six baby arsim descend upon from the four corners.

Arse "So you come here?"
Me "I live here."
[pointing down to bench]
"RIGHT here."

Arse "You want to come round with me?"
Georgia "Are you serious."
Arse [asks his friends]
Friends "He wants to know if you want to see Holon with him."
Georgia "And Iwant to know if he's serious."
[Everyone in unison] "Yeah, yeah"
Georgia "No."

Shoshanna "Yeah, we're all virgins. Except for THAT one." [points at the end of the bench to, of course, the only virgin present]
"They're together." [now to Georgia and me]
Arse "You guys, you both lesbians?"
Us "Mhmm."
Arse "You kiss?"
Us "Yeah."
Intervening other "You FUCK?"
.....
Georgia (serenely) "Yeah"
Arse "I can come?"
Another Arse "He's really BIG"
Georgia "Yeah you can come."
Arse "I don't believe you lesbian. Prove you are, kiss."
Us "No."
Arse "I don't believe."
Me "Give me 50 shekels."
