Happy Humpday

Damn you know you are busy when you forget to post a blog for over a week. Well I guess I shouldnt say "busy" because looking back I am finding it hard to figure out what I have been doing the past week or so, but I will try to make a few points.

I guess the safest place to start would be the SuperBowl. In what turned out to be a crazy game of turnovers, rain, turnovers, rain, errors and even a little bit of panic on my side....the Colts came out victorious. It was not the game anyone expected, and for that I am thankful, however, I can honestly remember thinking during the first quarter...."you have to be kidding me." I spent the game at home on the sofa, drinking coke zero and eating some awesome baked goods from Crystal down the hall. Mike came by for most of the game, but it was nothing like the Superbowl party I was hoping to throw, and this was a direct result of Friday night.

I sort of had an idea that friday was going to get out of control, but I had no idea to what extent. I picked up Dan and Stephanie from wawanesa at around 4, we dropped my truck off and then walked over to grab jessica, and then it was off to Melrose place. I made some ground rules for the night, which basically stated all the beer i can drink but no hard liquor. This turned into a bit of a catch 22, because I managed to stay up very very late without passing out, but the catch was, my wallet would have preferred an early night of passing out around ten.

Anyway, we all went to Melrose to watch the game, where we were joined by JC, Steve, Jennifer, Jay, Marc, Nicole, and even Nate made a surprise appearance. The flames game was good fun, and everyone got well primed with IceBergs (for the record, an ice berg is a pint o beer topped off with slushy margarietta mix....mmmmm) I think I had 10. Anyway, time to pay the tab, and yes you guessed it, our lazy waitress put us all on one tab. Now dont get me wrong here, but you would think, that if like 15 people arrive at different times over the course of the evening that they might not all be as "together" as you might think. I know we were all sitting together, but to put that many people on one tab is just stupid, and any waitress stupid enough to do it, deserves to get stiffed, just like the poor sucker who gets stuck with organizing the tab...in this case me. But fuck it, in the end everything got paid for and I was only out a few extra quid to cover the tip....luckily JC and Steve stepped up to help with the loss....Kudos to you guys.

So tab paid....off to the Rhino. Now the Rhino was packed Colin was spinning when we got there, it being his birthday we shared a few bevies and "what not" and then it was off to sit at my table with the girls and just people watch for an hour or so. If there is one things Nite Clubs are good for is people watching, plenty of drunk/High girls running around with outfits that would make any stripper jealous. And this night was no exeption.

After the Club it was back to Jessicas for a bit of late night debauchery at which time I threw out the "hard liquor rule" and purchased a bottle of vodka for the after party. I will not get into any of the details of the after party other than as a result of my general drunken-ness i slept most of saturday away, and failed to make any preparations for my superbowl party. And that is the long version as to why I had no Superbowl party.

Ok well that was my weekend, minus a few lengthy cat naps, a trip to church, and my first helping of fast food since xmas....but that my friends is another story. This blog is getting long, i will leave it at that, and will try to write tomorrow about my recent trip to edmonton.
Ciao....newman out
