phew!
What a crazy, fun weekend. First of all, I just have to say that I love 3 day weekends. Even when they're preceeded by a test on Thursday. Friday was a fabulous day of nothingness. I slept in, went to the gym & tanning, did a little shopping at Wally World, and played with the wuppies. It was bEAUTIful. Went to Trish's for a cook out/bonfire about 5:30. Rock on. The usual suspects were there, Lori, Jules and their kids/husbands. Plus a few of Clint's fireman buddies and their wives/kids. Fun fun. We all brought meat and drinks and Trish made the side dishes. YUM! The first cook out of the season, yay!! It was fabulous!! Then, once it started getting dark, we lit a big bonfire and roasted marshmellows. Too fun. I love bonfires. I wish we lived in the woods so we could have one. Right by the pool, lol. OOOH, speaking of which, mom has the cover off!! =) Anyway, after it got a little chilly, us girls went inside to play cards. We played "Screw your neighbor", which is pretty much Uno with regular cards. But, it was fabulously fun, especially given that I'd had a few Smirnoffs. mmmm. JJ and a few of his friends stopped by for a bit about 9, I guess it was. They were going to gather "in town" (Trish lives in the middle of nowhere.. what's more exciting downtown, I don't' really know.. ) They invited me to come along, so I was like "what the heck, why not?" So, we went galavanting, stopped at someone's house for a while, and then ended up in exciting down town Clarksville at a bar playing pool for a bit. It was fun, and totally random! I think I got home about 1:30 or 2. Fun.
Then I slept till almost noon on Saturday, and got up and got started making bread to take to Carmen's, and it's a damn good thing I did it right away, cuz it took 4 hours!!! ANy later and I would have been super late to her dinner party! That was a blast too. First, cuz I FINALLY got to meet her husband, Keith. It was a mix of APSU psych people and his army buddies (some with wives). She made a TON of food, all of it fabulous. The boys were out on the deck with their beers, talking man talk before we actually ate. Then we made daqueris and played "President's & Assholes" a "card" game. You deal out all the cards, and the dealer leads first, with whatever, and you go around the table trying to beat the previous card(s). Once you play one round, the first to go out is president, and so on.. down to the last one out, the asshole. The President can tell anyone what to do.. IE "take 2 shots", or "dance on the table". Very fun. :-P We'll have to try it next time we're all together. Then after a bit of that, some of us split off and played Uno for a bit, and then joined back in. We were all going to go bowling at about 11, I guess, but everyone wussed out. Some of em wanted to go out to Kickers (bar/dance club), but there were enough of us that were like "uh, no". Anyways, Keith was very fun playing cards with, he's very normal. I don't know what I else I expected... I guess they've been having parties pretty much every weekend, so his army buddies told me I was invited to come along next one. One of the wives, who is only freakin' 21, does candle parties, so she's invited me to her next one. How fun! They were all really fun.
Nothing special on Sunday. The Y was closed, so I had absolutely nothing to do. I should have worked on my paper, but I didn't. :-P I cleaned and did laundry and putzed around. Oh, I finally rented First Wives Club. It was good, but since I read the book first, I was a bit disappointed.
Today was crazy at work. Stupid Smokie Norful concert crap.. I swear, his ego must be big to make up for his size. (He's this short- like shorter than me). He wants his own limo to travel in while he's here; we can't do this, we can't do that. I swear, we'd have had an easier time getting NSYNC or Matchbox Twenty. I'd better get to get a picture taken with him, for all this shit work I'm doing for him and his concert. grumble grumble grumble.
Ok.. gotta go get myself into bed. We not only have a staff meeting tomorrow (earlier than normal even), but we have a wonderful Smokie Norful committee meeting too!! OH BOY!
