A Long Weekend
June 04, 2007
So, this was a very long weekend indeed. Friday was spent packing and cleaning but was otherwise totally uneventful. Only a brief lull before the weekend actually began.
Saturday though! O glorious thou art! E. and I made our way to the great grove of Maples (apparently folks around there consider "Large Sprawling Suburban Housing Complexes" to be Maples. Go figure) in order to attend Andy's honorific graduation party. Much fun was had getting to hang out with Andy and friends.
Even Mike A. showed up to the party bearing a green laser pointer with all the safeties removed. It was great delight to draw black dots on James and then hit him up with the tingley (apparently it felt like an IV insertion) green concentrated photon emitter. Draz was there to make fun of people and receive comments on his shiny head of course. Sadly, we left before we got to see James partake in tippie-cup.
Oh yes, there were also tasty margaritas. Rather than the traditional Tequila, Cointreau and Lime Juice Mix - Andy's mom used Lime-aid (I think it was), beer and Tequila. It was an interesting mildly carbonated, though far less alcoholic than I would have liked, tasty bit 'o goodness. Then there was of course the taco bar. Mmm. Tasty tacos. Oh, this was after E. and I ate at Famous Dave's for 1st dinner. Tasty chopped BBQ pork was had by us.
Sunday I slept until around noon and then E. and I went out shopping for some pots and some sort of Clint Eastwood collection. Alas, St. Cloud is devoid of any sort of real media outlet and the Clint Eastwood collection quest was met with failure. Oh well, perhaps E. will find that link helpful. There was also a special about pirates on the History channel. Sadly, I didn't get to see much of it before I was instructed that I had to shower.
So um... ya. I need a nap.

The game is flip-cup. Not Tippie cup. Get it right man! And drunk James was awesome.
Also, since when did you start referring to your wife the same way that people refer to the drug Ecstacy?

Babbles told me to do it. Any fun tales from James?

... rolling around on lollerskates waiting for the roflcopter to pick me up! So, how's life Mr. Solarce?
Solarce 2007/06/05
Solarce... so... larce... nope. Doesn't ring a bell. Hello friend, how do you know Jordan?
phantomdata 2007/06/05
Oh, you know me. I'm down with OCP. Your blog is in need of updating Mr. solarce.

Hmm... for some reason, post number 5 says Solarce is the author, even though I'm the one that wrote it. Somehow I accidentally impersonated someone who I dont know who they are, while asking who they are. That must have been confusing for you all to read.

You're in a desert walking along in the sand when all of the sudden you look down, and you see a tortoise, Andy, it's crawling toward you. You reach down, you flip the tortoise over on its back, Andy. The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can't, not without your help. But you're not helping. Why is that, Andy?

Because I enjoy the suffering of those weaker than I am?

This is the time where you need to talk about Tanhauser Gate, C-Beams, glittering etc.

Holy crap, I've seen a movie that Andy hasn't? Shocking!
