Weekend Recap

Alright - So I didn't post all week, really nothing to interesting that deserved postage. This weekend was a slightly different story with few musings.

Friday- After work I headed to EJ's as we had tickets to go see All That Remains. My google maps told me it was 9 miles or 25 minutes. No highways were needed and I started off making really decent time, about 4 miles away is where things got a bit sticky, overall it ended up taking about an hour to get to the apartment. This is exactly why I would never live in the city. As for the concert it was very enjoyable. I got accused by Metro security of smoking and they asked me to stop. The problem was that i wasn't smoking, no idea what he saw. After ths who we met up with Jim and Jim at the daily. EJ and myself both stated how we really didn't feel like drinking, one at the daily that feeling must have gone away. Newcastle tasted like sweet nectar on my lips, and so I proceeded to have 3. I must say Newcastle on tap far, far superior to that in a bottle. We then decided to move on to what i believe is called the brauhaus, a nice German restaurant where the average age had to be 65. We decided to drink a boot, of their own beer. It was good stuff, but in the time that we drank it all I seemed to be slightly under the influence. Maxwell, EJ and myself decided to leave zervas and head towards the 7/11. Picked up lots of random food, and slapped Maxwell and EJ in the face with a slim Jim a couple times and then headed back home. Ate all the random food and passed out. The next day woke up with not to bad of a hangover which I can't say the same about Maxwell who proceeded to vomit a ton. EJ and I went and got lunch at this random hot dog joint and I ordered hot wings that were something I had never seen before. I wish i took a picture because it was basically just tons of hot junk tossed on wings and called hot wings, it looked rather nasty and there was a random hair on one of the wings which didn't seem to phase EJ. After that headed back to the apartment and ej headed out for a hair cut. Maxwell and i went to get him some lunch at Garcia's, where i stuck with a 4 dollar horchata. After all that fun we ended up at the dollar store to purchase a few necessities including a couple candles with Jesus, a Judas candle and a 54" inflatable sword. It was then time to head back to Elmhurst to attend the huge game vs Wheaton. This game was extremely strange from the start. The game was supposed to start around 8pm. When we arrived there still was some wrestling reigionals going on. I really don't get wrestling and I really didn't enjoy seeing this fat dude who was wrestlings boobie. Also the people who watched wrestling ate really healthy food, i saw tons of apples, bananas, even a can of pineapple was left in the risers. So the game ends up starting around 9pm instead. The first half was pretty good, although while it should have been really exciting something was just missing, perhaps it was because I was so nervous with the outcome. At halftime we got the treat of a fire alarm and everyone had to evacuate the premises. There was no fire so the game resumed, and after an almost fight midway through the 2nd half the game ended with an Elmhurst Victory. After the game we returned back to the city and headed back to the same place we were the night before. Andrew and his friend Andy joined us. They were already trashed so we decided just to start doing boots, we ended up drinking 3 of them, which isn't too bad in an hour and half. We then returned home and sleeping commenced. I woke up to the sound of Andy on all fours vomiting in the middle of the TV area, very nasty and something i rather not have to wake up to ever again. I woke up again a little while later to Andy snoring like i have never heard anyone snore before. It was so bad that i had to retreat from my comfortable couch to go sleep on the kitchen floor, where the snoring was still audible but manageable. I went home at around 10am, took a shower and headed out to have lunch with leighan at our usual spot Red Robin. After lunch it was time for some daytona 500 action, and a great nap commenced. I saw most the great action and in the end well there was a lot of chaos and a great race to the finish line. After all that I got hungry and so I ordered some papa johns for Dan and myself. I don't really want to go into the details, but papa johns is the worst pizza place ever, I would recommend no one ever order from there ever. It was the time to talk to leighan for a few minutes and then go to bed fairly early as the abuse I have been doing to my body is starting to catch up to me.
