One long, long sentence

Micah and I go to the giant chinese buffet place by Lamar, the one with the vinyl banners that say "Best Buffet in Austin 6 Years - Austin Chronicle" and we park after driving the wrong way down the parking lot aisle, and I eat myself sick on rice and fried dumplings and mushrooms in spinach and seasame chicken and we talk about movies and sex, and it's a perfect blue afternoon outisde when we leave to have a cigarette, our bellies aching from all that food and then we drive to the liquor store at Duval and 183, buy a bottle of vodka and Crown Royal because we're probably going to drink a lot tonight with this party happening in our newly clean apartment, where I threw out all the beer bottles on the bar because I felt tired of them and you couldn't put any of the kitchen appliances out because there isn't hardly any counter space at all and I don't have pajamas to wear but I sleep in my jeans anyways most nights so I don't worry about it and sit here with my laptop and a coke watching the light turn darker blue outside and wait.

When you can write sentences as wonderful as this one, then you will have learned how to do long sentences properly and I will be duly impressed.
