Summer Plans
Hey Folks, How are ya? Good, good glad to hear it, WOW you look great your should really be more care full with your good looks your going to give me a pryaprisum. Listen I have some stuff to tell you.
We are all moved in to our new office. I, for once did not have any problems. It only took me about 20 minuets to unpack my stuff and I was ready to roll. But of course some people had really big problems ranging from busted or cracked computers to not getting there stuff delivered at all, and then having to search all over the building for there boxes. But that is what you get when you hire Mexicans, right TKC?
So, would you like to know about my summer plans? Really? You would? O.K, good ‘cause I am just dieing to tell some one about them.
First up, I know its not summer plans but Reggie, Mr. Awesome, Scooter, and I (The D) are all going to the KU vs. Oklahoma State game tonight. Should be fun, we are meeting at Scooters house in Lenexa at 5:45 and then heading to Lawrence for some Yellow Sub then its off to the game.
The second big plan that I have going on is for the weekend of February 17-18 Reggie (his brother and cousin) and I are going to go scuba diving in the Bonne Terra Caves I have been a Scuba Diver since 1991 when I was stationed in Okinawa, Japan. I have not been scuba diving for a really long time but I am really looking forward to this little excursion.
Now, for the REALLY big summer plans. This summer the Four Horsemen (or if you prefer these Four Horsemen) (The D, Mr. Awesome, Reggie, and Scooter) are planning to go to Baltimore, Boston, and New York City to see baseball games at each of the ballparks. We picked these cites because, #1, they will be tearing down Yankee Stadium in a few years and we wanted to see a ball game there before its time ended. Boston, just because it’s close to NY and we wanted to have an excuse to beat that shit out of Johnny Damon (just to say we did).The Monday morning conversation would go something like this:
Girl: “Hey, The D, what did you do this weekend?”
The D: “Well, Girl, some friends of mine and I went up to Boston and beat the shit out of Johnny Damon.”
Girl: “Why did you do that?”
The D: “For shits and giggles!! Why else?”
Girl: “Oh?” And she walks away slowly.
Baltimore? Well, we don’t know why we want to go to Baltimore; we just feel the need to go there like the need of the salmon of Capistrano return every year. None of us have even been to any of these cities so it should be a good time. We are just in the planning stages with, the baseball schedules not being released by all of the teams yet (at least that is what I think, but I am not in charge of the tickets to the games). Each of us have different responsibilities for the planning of the trip. Mr. Awesome is in charge of the hotels (lodging) and Brothels (hookers). Reggie is in charge of the game tickets, and deciding the final dates of the trip. (We really are not interested in seeing the Royals lose to these teams but if it works out that we can then we will, but it is not a priority.) The D is in charge of all of the travel, airline tickets, and train tickets, and taxi in each city. Scooter is in charge of the entertainment in each city, finding out where the hot slutty chicks hang out, and other touristy stuff.
Here are my problems so far, I can’t get a firm price on airlines until I know where we are going first, are we going to start in New York and work our way south or vice versa? I suggested taking a train as our mode of travel between cites (like from New York to Boston and from Boston to Baltimore) and using subways and taxi’s as the preferred mode in each city. But Reggie and Scooter want to get a car. Which I think is just the dumbest idea I have ever heard of, for this trip yet. This is why I say a train is best. Cost, it will only be a bout 200 bucks for one ticket that can get us from Baltimore to New York. (I don’t know what a rental car would cost). Safety, someone would have to stay up (not to mention stay sober) and drive. Directions, we would not know where the hell we are going. Parking, we would not have to worry about it. Sleep, we could sleep on the train and recharge our batteries (we are not 25 years old for Christ sakes we need some recovery time).
We are looking at taking this trip in late July or early August so if any of you know of some cool festivals or anything going on in these towns let me know. If any of you could put me in contact with another blogger from any of these cities that would be just great!! Plus, if any of you have any restaurants or bars that you think my friends and I might like, or places to see during the day just let me know and I will give you mad props!! Plus if you have any web site that you use for air travel let me know those also.
Have a good week and GO Jayhawks!!
