Fun Weekend

Friday: Downtown with Kim!! Bar time, Ian's pizza, drunk 19 year olds following us to the 'old people bars'!

Saturday: Greta's pool, ice-cold Zombie, beautiful sun, surprise visit by Arick, swimming, Patty's bday, Picasso's pizza, drunk catch phrase, bonfire, dancing, Club GL, bar time












Yup yup

Umm...

So I noticed yesterday that the flags here at the hospital and around town are flying at half staff (sp?). PLEASE tell me its for something else besides Michael Jackson? Really? I mean please--he was just a celebrity with child molesting on his record. I hope we honor ALL child molesters with flying the flags at half staff.

If there's another reason please someone let me know...Could it possibly be for Robert McNamara, the ex-Secretary of Defense that died this week?

Summerfest

I made an appearance at Summerfest this year...twice! I decided to head up to MKE for the weekend, left Friday morning and came back on Sunday afternoon. Friday started out with me and Ryan going to get the best bloody marys on earth. They have cheese strings, a pickle, a mushroom, green olive (blah!), a beef stick and are just spicy enough for me. Then we headed over to Summerfest and we happened upon free cereal, well just a sample. But hey, I luv free samples so I took one and put it in my purse! Score!


We enjoyed the afternoon people watching and walking around. We even rode the sky glider thingy! Then, Ryan and I spotted a give-away. WHAT?? Free M&M Ice Cream sandwiches! Holy shit! The line looked long but we got in it and it only took a few minutes and, ah, a nice ice cream sandwich totally hit the spot! Yummy.


Ryan and I came back to Summerfest later in the evening with Russ and Chris. A funny thing occurred on this trip. It happened while we were walking to the gates. I was ahead of the boys so I didn't actually see this happen but all of a sudden I heard a big splash sound, like water falling onto the concrete. I turn around and there is Russ and Ryan all wet! We immediately look up and someone had thrown a bucket of water out of a window on the side of this building. Ha, I start laughing immediately because, well, it was funny. And I was happy it wasn't on me! They started investigating to figure out what it was and it smelled like dirty dish water. It was soapy and kinda sticky! YUCK! But really funny!

Then I got to see Shinedown! Yeah, fun! They were good. I was way in the back but I had a good view of the screen.


Day 2 (Saturday) began with what else, another trip to get bloody marys. Then Ryan, Russ and I went to the Miss Bradford Beach competition.








Ha, too funny. All i'll say is that these girls looked pretty good from afar but up close, wow, they were a hot mess! Lots of wrinkles, cracked out looking females! I assume there was no age limit on this competition as I could tell some of these 'girls' were a little older than I first thought!





Fun times. We quick ran over to Russ's house, let out their dog--HUGE DOG. OMG. Scared the shit out of me really, but wow, that's a huge dog.


Then we headed back to summerfest to meet up with the Grade's and to see The Fray.


The whole concert was pretty good. It was a more mellow show obviously but we had a good time. For the opening acts we had to sit in our exact seats but they let us move up for the Fray so we ended up moving up quite a bit and had good seats for the main show.


Overall, fun weekend! I hadn't been to summerfest in years and I had a good time! Can't wait for next year.
