My Weekend
Friday was lame I just stayed home and watched the movie "Jarhead". Now this movie is based on a book by a fellow Devil Dog that was in the same time I was in the Corps which was the early 1990's. I was in boot camp when the Operation Desert Storm started and ended but I still found the movie an accurate portrayal of a Marines life at the time. Except for the branding scene at the beginning of the movie. We never did any of that bullshit when I was in. Also there was never any of that queer stuff like dancing around with a hat on your junk, you would of had your ass-whipped if you tried that stuff.
On Saturday afternoon I went to a friends house and helped him and his wife paint the exterior of there house. After that him and I attended a bachelor party. We all met at Tanners on 119th, had dinner and after a few beers about 15-20 of us went on a bus to Fuel next about 10 or 10:30 we made our way to The Brooksider to see one of our favorite local bands, they are a 80's cover band called The Zeros. Their always a lot of drunk chicks that we like tease about not being old enough to even remember the original bands. After that we made our way to Westport and had a lot of bacardi and pepsi's (they don't have Coca-Cola, only the kids order a bacardi and Coke. I get a bacardi and Pepsi the reason why is a whole nother post.) at Kelly's. At that point we were all pretty wasted so we went up to the Beaumont Club) (hey I said I was wasted) to have more shots and booze. At about 2:00 the bus came and picked everyone else up and few buddies and I went back to my house I live near 43rd and Rainbow so its only a short cab ride home. After a couple more hours of drinking I realized it was 5 in the morning and I kicked everyone out. I had to be a my brothers for Easter lunch at noon (or so I thought)
On Sunday I got up at 11 with a massive hangover. Hoped in the shower and went to the liquor store. Because I am the only single guy in the family I always get stuck with bringing the booze to the family get togethers. Which is nice because if I cooked something everyone would end up getting food poisoning because I can only cook 2 items, pb&J and macaroni and cheese and no one wants that. I got to my brothers about 12:15 and thought my sister-in-law would be really pissed because I was late, but I soon realized that I was 45 minutes early. "FUCK" I thought I could of slept for another hour. But I swallowed my hangover and went in side. I spent the afternoon with little kids climbing all over me like I was a jungle gym. I was miserable because of the constant pounding in my brain.
So that was my weekend, pretty exciting!
Next I will tell you about the upcoming weekend and my friends wedding plans.
Later Gators!
