Here's my take on the sketch challenge for March.

The hidden journalling reads:

We all have that one friend who is considered a “bad influence” on us. I have Lissa, and it’s a good thing that we live far apart. The same can be said for Bryan and Jason.
They met 15 years ago when Renee (Bryan’s sister) was dating Jason at FSU. Now, Jason is part family, and there is no separating these two guys when they get together.
Don’t get me wrong-- I love Jason! He and Renee welcomed me into their home with open arms, and actually are happy that their little bro met me. In fact, Jason kept calling me “Sista”, which made me feel like I am part of the family now. 
Anyway, this night we all went out to this really fancy shmancy restaurant overlooking the city. Since Renee was pregnant, Jason hadn’t been able to party like he always loves to do. Until Bryan got there. So he decided to get Bryan drunk.
Three martinis, two bottles of champagne, and a cognac later, the guys were totally shnockered. They started (loudly) making toasts to Kim Jong Il (the ruthless dictator of North Korea) and talking about how they were going to get the “Fat Cats” out of Bartow. (Never mind the people of Pittsburgh have probably never even heard of Bartow, much less wanted to get the Fat Cats out.) Bryan even started crying because he loved his country and Lakeland soo much. We figured then that it was time to go home.
Renee was lucky—she managed to sleep through all the ruckus. But the guys started blasting music by The White Stripes and continued their rant about Bartow. I just stood there. On the outside I was laughing at how crazy they had gotten, and on the inside I was worrying that I’d be up with Bryan throwing up. I ended up capturing it all on video, a trick that I’m not sure Bryan has forgiven me for.
The next day, their parents flew in. We were still laughing and making fun of Bryan (Renee’s reaction was, “I’m surprised you’re brave enough to show your face today!”) when they got there late that night. When his mother found out he’d had three martinis, she said, “I can’t drink martinis. The gin always makes me cry!”
We nearly died laughing. Apparently Bryan’s lack of manliness when he’s intoxicated is hereditary. I’ll always remember that night. It was so crazy and so much fun, and I knew then that I had been officially welcomed into the family.
