The Relaxing Weekend
Monday, August 15, 2005So since I was gone for only part of the weekend, some of you aren't jonesing for me as much as usual, but I know you still can't wait to hear about my weekend can you?
Anyway, I finally did get those pictures of me with a naked face up on the last post, so check me out. Funny how shaving of some hair can also seem to shave off a few years...
So on to the weekend update:
This weekend was amazingly relaxing. I still did quite a bit, but it was all fairly relaxed events, and I didn't have any female drama.
Friday -
I did absolutely nothing. At least nothing important. I talked with Hot Beer Tent Girl on the way home from work and she seemed excited to go to the Renaissance Festival. Got home and watched a movie, called the coffee shop near me to find out if they had Wireless internet yet. They did indeed finally get it up and running so I grabbed the laptop and wandered over. I should have also asked what time they close, however, since by the time I walked there they had locked up. Doh!
Stopped off at Fabulous Fern's, the official Bureau of Slacking NTN Trivia location. Had a couple Whiskey Diets and played a few rounds of trivia, then headed home and called it a night.
Saturday -
I woke up at 8:30. Yes, I said 8:30 on a Saturday morning. And I wasn't even tired. Something had to be wrong with me.
Anyway, I got up and noticed some jewelry that I know wasn't Big Mike's and a purse as well, so I assumed Mike didn't come home alone the previous night. I watched a little TV, then I headed over to Slacker Post One and popped online for a bit.
Went home and he had seen the one of his 6 gal out. We watched a little He-Man on DVD (Best of Season 1) and then decided to head to the Renaissance Festival. As per usual lately HBTG never called about going with, so we headed out by ourselves. We wandered around there, watched a couple of the shows and stopped in some of the shops and had a couple beers and some food. Nice and relaxing.
Later I went out to a co-workers housewarming party. It was in one of the distant suburbs of the cities, turned out to be a longer drive than I thought but not too bad. Had some free food and beer. Played some Polish Golf (throw two golf balls with a string between them and try and get them to stop on one of three bars for points) and some game with washers.
I met a girl I thought might be a new one. She was pretty good looking, pretty sassy, had some nice artwork on her back. She was definitely the talkative flirty type. We teamed up and kicked some ass at the Golf. Later, in convo, she started pulling out the "We's" (You know, "We met Him..." "We went to...") and I knew something was up.
Turns out she's married (didn't have her ring on) has a 4 month old (Definitely doesn't look like it) and her husband was there (though rarely around her and he didn't have his ring either). Seriously, wear buttons! She was flirty and huggy later too, right in front of her hubby, but whatever works.
Anyway, later my co-worker Drunkie, who was there as well, and I decided to go hit the other co-workers party that was going on that night. We got semi lost at one point, but found our way to where the place was supposed to be only to find out the sign telling us which driveway (this is WAY out in the country mind you, gravel road and all) was his had disappeared. A car pulled out of one of the driveways and we flagged it down, turned out that was the right driveway.
Got there and heard the last half of the co-worker's son's band and chatted with some of the people we knew there. I was reintroduced to his daughter, suddenly remembered how friggin' hot she was. We chatted for a while but nothing came of that either as her boyfriend was there as well.
He headed back to the first party, hung out by a fire for a while, then we all went in and played some drinking games. I think we hit Up and Down the River, Screw the Dealer, Presidents and Assholes, and a couple others as well. Called it a night there about 2am and headed home.
Sunday -
Got up about 9ish, still actually awake despite the 3am bed-time. Watched some more He-Man with Big Mike and just chilled out.
Later Big Mike and I went over to Fern's so he could have lunch. Conservative Girl stopped by since she had been two blocks away for a Motorcycle ridership class to get her license. I ended up going with her and two of my Condo Neighbors (Cute Veterinarian and the Only Original Guy) to the Irish Fair.
We all walked around Irish Fair and listened to the live Irish Music, checked out all the shops in the marketplace, ate some authentic Irish food (I had Lamb Stew and Roast Chicken), watched some Irish Dancing and checked out some of the other cultural events. Had a couple beers, but I was disappointed in the fact they only had American make "Irish" beer and no actual Irish beer. Oh well.
Went home, watched the rest of the He-Man DVDs and saw CG off. After we got rid of CG, Big Mike and I went over and played some NTN Trivia at Fern's. At one point this one girl came up and chatted with us, then went out and was talking with this guy, and then that guy's girlfriend came over and was all upset. She sat and bitched to us, waiting to see if he kissed her. He didn't and they all left. Stupid drama.
Anyway, that was the weekend. Nothing exceptional, and even though it was fairly eventful, it was also nice and relaxing. I'm actually not tired on a Monday, can't remember the last time that happenend.
In a today event, I made it halfway through lunch until a co-worker I have lunch with everyday and who had talked with me that morning said "Holy Crap! You Shaved!" and the guy who's housewarming party said he hadn't even noticed. heh. Some unobservant types!
Anyway, I'm off to rub my face against something. My chin likes being naked, don't we all? :O)
Happy Monday peoples.

Hey! I'm finally back from my interview. It sounds like a good, non-drama free weekend! I love the whole relaxation thing, of course.
And I forgot to mention that I really like the dimple on your chin. :) -

wow... check out the spammage!!! is that a new feature, or has it been going on for a while?
you do look much younger... but then I remember that YOU ARE much younger! :)
I'm also curious how it's affecting the harem.... ?
I'm a ring-wearer as well. as for flirting... I think I'm mildly flirtateous... but am much much worse when I'm drinking. The good side to that though is that when I drink, I usually hit on girls???
don't ask... I couldn't explain if I wanted to. I *will* say, however... if I'm drinking, you DEFINITELY want to be around me if you're a single guy. I become crazy-drunk-match-maker-oh-come-here-honey-you-need-to-seriously-meet-this-boy girl. Abbreviate THAT! ;) -

Beth - Heh yeah I'm a whole new person :O) And I'm cooler, stop here first! As for her, I guess I would be fine with a girl I'm mareid to being like that, as long as I know I can trust her, who cares?
Wendi - yeah it definitely is huge, which is funny sice it jsut a little facial hair. And so far none of them except Conservative girl has seen it and she thought it was funny. Good funny I gues though.
Vixen - yeah, it was fun, it's good to come back from a weekend and feel relaxed.
Captain B - Yup. I haven't shanved yet since I did that time, trying to let the chin get used to being naked. heh
Carrie - UIt's been happeneing more and more, I think I'm going to have to turn off Anonymous soon. I'm not THAT much younger. Like I said, only CG has seen it so far, she thought it was fun. I think we need ot hang out more when you're drinking then ;O) -
