This is a name-dropping entry especially for zuzubailey76.

It struck me this evening that I never even wrote about the Simon and Garfunkel concert. Wow. Maybe there are no words, or maybe I just get distracted. Either way, it was really amazing - it was like living a dream, except that in this dream I got to make fun of Art Garfunkel a lot with Peas.

This weekend was pretty jam-packed. On Friday after work, Jennifer and I opted to go to Haiku for yummy sushis. On the way back, we stopped at Sean and Bart's house to say hello, and ran into Jenny, Richard, and Missy. We then went to Lisa's house where we met up with Bob, C4R4, Joe, and Joey. Then we went for Halloweeni Martinis at Bar Louie at Easton. Jen and I are too old, though, and left early to be big sleepies.


We chose not to dress up, though I was an "evil Republican."


They did Bad Things.

Yesterday we got up early to drop my car off at the dealer for scheduled maintenance, and then we ran all over the place running errands. Eventually we picked up my car and headed to the wedding reception slash housewarming party slash costume party hosted by the newlywedded Nikki and Eric. We saw crena and Scott there, which was good because we didn't know anyone else and I don't think I was particularly amusing. (And we weren't in costume. AGAIN.) We had to duck out early, though, because we had another engagement (sorry, guys!).

The "other engagement" was White Trash Date Night (how un-PC) with Peas and Sarah. We had planned to eat at a trashy restaurant, bowl at a seedy bowling alley, and drink beer out of long-necked bottles. (So said Jenn.) The surprise was that they showed up /dressed for the part/. Holy crap, I couldn't even look at them all night. It was killing me.


(You can't tell, but Jenn was careful to put lipstick on her teeth, also. I was dying.)

We had a whole heck of a lot of fun at the bowling alley, and ended up staying for about four hours of bowling goodness. Jenn amused us all by scoring a 69 at the ninth frame of one game, and then purposefully rolling gutterballs to keep her score. This all sounds so stupid to type, but we had a consistently good time, and I couldn't stop laughing and smiling. I love Jenn and Sarah so freaking much, because we're all cut from the same cloth and we just really build on each other. And, really, how could you not love people who shopped at Goodwill just to impress you?


She's so quick, she blurred the whole photo. Zoooom!


Peas and I boldly show you our "down theres."


The requisite "art photo."

(Have I mentioned how much I love having a camera? There were so many other great shots from Friday night and Saturday night, I just haven't had a chance to crop them all. SOON.)

Anyway, so last night I was up playing with Friendster, and then we got up this morning and decided to call Peas and Sarah about brunch. We hit the yummy buffet at Union Station and then parted ways. Jen and I ran some more errands, and were then graced by a house call from A., who brought me a 17inch monitor in exchange for some Canadian candy we bought him in Niagara Falls. He stayed to shoot the breeze for a while, and we went to Pete's for an outdoor drink. Then we went to Chili's and had yummies with my favorite Sarah Sarah. She dropped us off, I finished laundry, Jen did dishes (yes, this is so exciting), and then we watched Like Water For Chocolate. (We were going to watch Fox Fire but Netflix sent me a broken DVD.) The best thing about watching movies at home is the cuddling on the couch. Yay!

It is now significantly past my bedtime, so I am going to go pretend I'm sleepy. Good night, and thanks to everyone who made my weekend so much fun!

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah I LOVE those pictures!!!! Lovelovelovethem!

And we love yall. I especially enjoy singing songs with you - because we can really get down. (I'm still blurting out "TIE ME TO THE BED POOOOST.")

Thanks for being such great friends to us. We're SO RELIEVED to have found you.

Hey there, popular person! I just showed my roommate the picture of you in your gender binary shirt. Now "Hey Jude" is in her head and it is all my fault, she says. (I was actually on the site shopping for Erin's birthday, and ended up buying a gender binary sweatshirt for myself. I have no willpower.)

That Arizona Iced Tea shirt is teh awes0me.

All those pictures are wonderful! You're a great photographer!

White trash date night! LOL..that's too fricking funny!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

The other pictures are just as good... I just didn't have time to make them all a manageable size yet. Argh! Damn those bed times!!

I take back all the times where I tell you how much I love you, because now I have "tie me to the bedpost!" in my head - ARGH!

I'd say it's mutual relief, sunshine. After all, who else would wear sweat pants to go out with me?

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Hooray! Now we will match (you, me, and Alix Olsen, because she has my other tshirt), which is oh-so-cool. I hear you're pretty popular yourself, out there in my old stomping grounds.

GOOD FOR YOU! :)

It was even properly faded. It was /perfect/.

It was pretty hysterical when she came up with the idea. I thought she was just teasing when she said she was looking for seedy bowling lanes, but she really found one on the south side of town just north of 270 that certainly fit the bill! Let's just say she wasn't the only person wearing sweat pants. ;)

I wish I'd remembered to bring my camera to your party - there were some GREAT costumes there! My props go to Popeye and Olive Oyl, and of course the Inflatable Elvis.

and to make the shirt even more ROCKSTAR, it wasn't in the center of the shirt. It was all wacky to the right side!!!

Great pictures.. I love having my camera with me too. It's something I wish I'd had access to in my youth.. Can you imagine growing UP with a digital camera?

[elspazz0.livejournal.com]

dude. that is so badass. i want that shirt.

[whirledpeas.livejournal.com]

It's totally yours.
It's also enormous.

I'll give it to Jude tomorrow night! (Provided I can get it in the wash - dood, there's so much hair crap on that shirt!)

[elspazz0.livejournal.com]

AWESOME. i love you.

I'm going to cut the neck out and then tie it in a knot on the bottom and wear it with cut-off shorts and flip-flops.

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Ha! You crack me up!

I got a 110 camera when I was about 12, and I took so many crappy pictures, but I always forgot to get them developed. I wish I'd had a digital camera!!
