My Weekend....and other random thoughts...
This past weekend marked the first time since college that I've stayed out past 5am. Three red bulls will do that to you...
Also, Saturday was highly anticipated because of the impending shenanigans of my friend Ian (I really like the term "impending shenanigans" by the way, I might change the name of my blog to that...). You see, on New Years Eve of this year, Ian hooked up with a lacrosse player from University of Maryland. Apperently, he was so drunk that he didn't remember what this girl looked like. So after a barrage of text messages, he finally relented and agreed to meet this girl at a bar in Lakeview. Not wanting to miss what was likely to be one of the more entertaining moments of the year, myself and my roommates tagged along. All the while, we made fun of Ian for hooking up with what we expected to be a linebacker. We even threw around a few nicknames, like Romo, Katzenmoyer, Ray Lewis, and Spielman (all names of famous linebackers, for the sporting-illiterate). Also, every time a bearded man entered the bar, we would all look Ian and ask him, "is that her??" To add fuel to the fire, I grabbed Ian's phone and started text messaging her "I bet I can outdrink you".
After a few hours of trying to get Ian drunk enough for him not to remember again, this girl finally showed up. And wouldn't you know it? She was actually kind of cute! Here is a link to the Maryland Lacrosse media guide, scroll all the way to the bottom, her name is Acacia Walker. Maybe not the best picture, but she's definitely better looking than Ray Lewis. Plus she is a D-1 athlete....and thats more than Ian can say.
So, as you might imagine, Ian was quite relieved, and actually starting to get fired up. After buying a round of shots for her and her friend, Ian disappeared to the bathroom, upon returning, he realized they had bolted for the door. After she ignored several of his phone call attempts, we began to realize what exactly had happened. Somehow, she remember Ian being much better looking than he really was. Needless to say, SHE was the one that ended up being disappointed.
Now I'm no doctor, but I do believe that is the definition of irony.
Here are some other random thoughts for the week:
-Be sure to visit DeathCabforCutie.com, as today they unveil the first of 11 film shorts for each of their songs on the album "Plans". Now, again I'm no doctor, but I think "film short" might be the same as "music video". Then again, the music video as we know it became extinct the day "120 Minutes" was cancelled.
-I hope to have an audio clip of the voicemail I left Steve on Sunday morning (around 5am). Hi-fucking-larious....
-In response to the controversy I stirred last week, I agreed to read one of those crappy books, but after a backlash by my readers (I'll spare the details, but suffice to say the term "pansy" was used several times), I decided against it.
