Weekend post of goodness
Yeah, so I ended up getting through for Cubs tickets 3 times. I got one ticket for one of the Boston games which I'm selling to Joey because a) I'm not going to a baseball game by myself and b) he's the Boston boy so yeah. I also got some for Larry's birthday, and I'm splitting some tickets with Ben here at the office for one of the Cardinals games.
Then after work I took the El up to Evanston to meet up with Dina for a drink before going to see Sara's students perform Antigone. This year's play was a short one clocking in at just over an hour. It was a good one though. Then afterwards back to Nevin's for more drinks. Nevin's now has all of their waitress' wearing short plaid skirts. I have no problem at all with this new development.
Saturday Sara and I went up to Gurnee to get stuff from Old Navy, we also grabbed some Applebees for lunch. Went back home, and I was right back out of the door becase Ring of Honor is back in town. Head over to Larry's then we run to the city to pick up Wayne and Jesse. Then it's out to Addison for some fun at Dave & Busters. Good times were had but we had to take off (I still have 50 Credits!) to get something to eat before the show. We stop at the little pizza/bar place by the venue again for some pizza chicanary. Come across some guys that came all the way from Fort Wayne for the show. Once all 4 cars were there, we were 10 deep in this little bar. Got our grub on, then asked what their parking situation was for letting us park there during the show. They let us park if we came back for drinks, after the show. We had no problem with that and off to the show. Show was fun, I'll have a review up on ITVR sometime (That sometime is now inthisveryring.com ). Adam expounded on his disaffection at ROH shows over at DVDVR and I agree, I just don't get the loving feel off their shows live that I do at IWA-MS. ROH is better on DVD than live to me in that respect. Thus being, I was having a ball goofing around and partaking in silliness, wackiness, and general douchebaggery. After the show went back to the bar (12 deep now with the Summers' joining in) and had a round. There was some birthday party going on, and there was also Karaoke. So we finally get a book and start looking through it, and Joey notices NKOTB, finds a bunch of us to do it with him. Next thing we know, Joey, Todd, Phil, and myself are doing "Step by Step" by the New Kids. Phil was the lyrical superstar of the performance, hitting the high-pitched Joey MacIntyre parts. Todd brought mad back-up dancing ability. Twas a ball. Larry brought some Lionel Ritchie action to the table with some lovely "Say You, Say Me" Joey rocked some "Copacabana" and said he wanted a Conga Line. He got one, some girls walked past us on the way from the bathroom one was grabbed and followed and dancing in a winding line ensued. I rocked some Bloodhound Gang "Bad Touch" with Phil rocking the chorus for me since I don't like it and then we took off. Twas another good evening with the entire crew.
Sunday Sara and I did a little grocery shopping, made some brownies then made our way to Dina's house for a Mexican Fiesta/Dinner at the new apartment/Oscars gathering. Much fun was had.
Now I'm at work, tired and I have major pain in my thighs that I have no clue how it happened. Ah well, such is life.
