New Look - New Mascot - Night Recap
Wednesday, August 17, 2005Look & Mascot -
So yeah, welcome to the new and improved Daily Slacker! Hope you all like the new logo! The new logo was inspired by the new Slackerdom Mascot - Mr. T! Pictures of Him, and also from Last Night are up on the Visual Edition.
Mr. T is a cute little Red-Eared Slider who now calls Slacker HQ home! He moved in last night and hopefully will be there for many years to come! Everyone welcome him to the Slacker Family!
The Night -
So last night was pretty fun! Definitely cool to get to hang out with Orientation Girl again. I've TOTALLY missed her. Hopefully we can hang out again before a year passes like last time!
After I left work I picked her up and we headed over to The Condo. I gave her the grand tour and we hung out and chatted about what's going on with life and all that. Talked about how both of us are trying to get back into the whole dating thing. She's hopefully going to get a promotion that might take her to Wyoming for a while and is also hoping to eventually move to Denver.
We caught up on old times for a while waiting for Conservative Girl to get there so we could go over to the lady's house who was selling the turtles. In true CG fashion she called and said she'd be a half hour late. So OG and I chatted some more until she got there.
After CG finally arrived we ran over to the lady's house and looked at the two turtles she had left and I picked out the one I wanted and talked to her about caring for them. We chatted about turtles for a little bit, but had to head out so we could drop of Orientation Girl for a dinner her and a couple other friends had reservations for.
After we dropped her off, Conservative Girl and I went and grabbed some food. We went over to Fern's and she wanted to sit in the restaurant part, but I wanted to watch the Twins Game and play some trivia so we sat in the bar. Had food, finished second twice to this 50ish guy who I'll probably be exactly like when I'm that age. Nice man and knows WAY to much useless info. heh.
Finished dinner, went over to Slacker HQ and played with Mr. T a little. OG called and said they were going to go to Stub and Herb's, our old haunt, instead of downtown. SO I saw CG off and headed over.
Years back when OG was still around here, we had started doing Stub and Herb's 101 shot list. Before she moved away we had made it through 50 some of the shots. I still had the original sheet we marked them off on and brought it along. They had updated it so we had to go through the new one and recheck it all. After updating the new list, we decided we had to knock off as many as we could without getting her sick.
Everybody chatted and caught up on old times, had some drinks and a bunch of fun! In all we ended up having 7 shots: Undercurrents, Apple Coolers, Pink Lemon Drops, Ginger Snaps, Juicy Fruits, Sexual Healings and Pineapple Paradises. A pretty good load, a couple of them were pretty heavy the rest were fairly easy, but we did put a nice dent in the list. So Far I've done 62 of 101 and OG has done 57 of the 101. Definitely a nice fun tradition to uphold :O)
I tested the water to see where we still stood. Talked about dating and having fun, nothing really came of it though. Got the same friends thing as before. Oh well!
Big Mike had come along as well, and of course, he went home with ANOTHER phone number. Another friend of mine, an Ex-Booty Call, was there as well with her boyfriend. On her way out I had to reminisce about an incident we had one night a while ago and told her to make sure to keep track of her underwear ;O)
Once 2am rolled around the group had dwindled to me OG and her Ex that she had gone to a wedding with this past weekend. He's in town from Germany where he's posted with the army.
As the bar was kicking us out we laughed about the couple times we had played this card game "Sip and Go Naked" with a group of our friends and all ended up naked. Fun game. Check it out. We talked about making a road trip and going out to CO to hit up the slopes and have a good time in the winter, and vowed NOT to take a year to see each other again.
I gave them a ride back to their hotel and called it a night.
definitely a fun time, I totally do miss OG and hope we can make a habit out of seeing each other more.
Anyway, gotta finish up stuff her at work since this is like my Friday. I'm gone the rest of the week and weekend to watch the NASCAR races in Michigan.
Enjoy the new digs and check out the pics on the visual edition!

I love the new look, new header, and Mr. T. :-)
The night sounds pretty eventful and OG sounds way cool. Too bad there's just the friends thing, but you never know. ;) She sounds like a cool chick.
And I like the idea of having a shots list! Hmmm... - At Wed Aug 17, 04:07:00 PM, Chief Slacker said...
