SO the Das Boot night pictures are FINALLY HERE!!!
YYYYAAAAAYYYY
Our photographer had left by the time we had gotten to the Karaoke Kid unfortunately, but I'll give ya what i can!
So this is Me, Andy, and Drew drinking from the ol' boot!! Drew is really good at it.
Too good perhaps. Relax the jaw Drew, relax the jaw and swallow ;)
Ya know, in hindsight, i wish we would have captured the massive difficulty everyone had while they were trying to get past the bubble in the toe! Because that is a totally legitimate difficulty, and you have to be either ultra confident in addition to having seen the movie Beerfest, or SUPER careful! And on the first time around, the whole circle was a strange mix of the two, resulting in beer slapping us all in the face. SHAAAAAMMMMEE. We had 3 boots between the 5 of us. it was some really good times!!
AND THEN I FOUND BRUCE WILLIS!!! ZOMG!!
Andy spotted him toward the middle of the night, and made everyone look at him. I was determined to get a picture with him in a discrete manner, but in the end i got frustrated and a little too drunk, so i just walked up to him and said something to the effect of, hey Bruce Willis, will you take a picture with me? And then he said yes. LOL. What a sport.

The other day (2 weeks ago?) Andy and I went out to dinner with our friend Ashley for her birthday at Uno's in Madison. We had been seated, and were just chatting amongst ourselves when our waitress skipped over (and i'm barely exaggerating here) and introduced herself. She gave us the usual hello, my name is... but when she got to her name, she drew this napkin out of her little check pouch dealie (whatever that's called) and with a MASSIVE flourish, she set it gently, almost lovingly on the table. It had her name on it (Rachel), and she timed it such that as she said it, the napkin was landing. And then she got this look on her face that told me she was hungry for approval, like she was a kindergartner, and she needed me to tell her that the picture of the pink duck she had colored was really splendid and original.
I literally laughed right in her face. Which i immediately regretted due to the hurt look on HER face, but what was i supposed to do? She had colored outside the lines, and what kind of ducks are pink anyway? Have i taken this metaphor too far? The point is, she wasn't going to get her approval from me. On the plus side, i wasn't her most abrasive customer. One of our other friends made a fuss about portion sizes, and ended up sending her food back (lol Stacey, fight the man).
Andy and I beat Gears of War 2 today!! Truthfully, Andy beat it by himself for the most part. The campaign bored me a little, and the co op campaign is set up so i can come and go as i please, so i did. The end was pretty anti-climactic, and I'm not gonna lie, the game is getting old for me. If you have any leisure activity suggestions, I'm up for something new! (disclaimer: the multiplayer option for this game was truly wonderful, we just played it for a lot of hours, and I'm ready to move on to bigger and better things. Or bigger and better games.)
And now its question answerin' time!
Lauren, I'm not super impressed with your questions. Very low energy, I can tell you didn't put much thought into them. That being said prepare for them to be answered in PAINSTAKING LENGTH!!
First of all, I'm not a huge Bagel eater. But if i did eat them regularly i would probably... wait, wtf is a SALT bagel? ish. i guess poppy, given those options? Whatever. But when i eat bagels, its like... i dunno, this is gonna sound really lazy, but they're hard to chew. I get about halfway through 'em, and then I'm pretty much sick of chewing. Also, they don't have much flavor. You need to douse them in cream cheese to make them enjoyable. In fact, when I eat bagels, i make them into sandwiches more often than not. And even then i would almost rather have bread. The extra stuff in the middle of the bagel doesnt make it any easier to chew after all.
And the meaning of life. I suppose i would say the meaning of life is to develop relationships with those around us. We are here on Earth for a very limited time, and as one of my favorite Relient K songs says, "Our hearts are all we'll get to bring, so let's go ahead and make them worth something!" O by the way, I believe in God and heaven, and while I am currently spiritually speaking a bit further from Him than I'm comfortable with, I will be reconnecting very soon. Feel free to ask me about my beliefs if you are curious.
O and speaking of questions, i didn't actually tell you what they were, but that's partially because they were kind of silly (or vague and cliche). They were in the comments of yesterday's post. However if you have something you wanna know about me/hear me talk about, throw a comment on this thing, and i'll get to you tomorrow! or maybe Friday, Ive got a paper to work on.
