What did you (Americans) do this weekend?
« on: July 05, 2005, 02:24:35 pm »
This is a pretty funny story, so :P

My church recently moved.  We no longer meet at the Minder Binders bar & grill on University and McClintock anymore, because they're remodeling during the summer.  We've moved to the ACME Roadhouse bar & grill on University & Rural (these streets are for Networks' benefit).  This Sunday was the 2nd Sunday we've been there, and I wasn't quite sure where it was yet.

So after I passed Apache going north, I knew it would be on the right side of the street, but I couldn't remember how far (Apache is a half-mile south of University -- it's 35 mph there).  There was a car turning right ahead of me, but I wasn't paying attention (because I was looking for the bar).  I hit my brakes, pretty hard, and managed to stop before I hit the guy in front of me.  As I breathed a sigh of relief, that I knew I wasn't going to hit him, I checked my rearview mirror -- and thought, "Nope!  She's going to hit me."  So I held the brake as hard as I could, to make sure I didn't go into the guy in front of me, and we collided.  We pulled into a McDonalds just up the road.

There was VERY little damage to my car.  She maybe hit me going 10 mph more than I was moving, so it wasn't a big deal.  Her front bumper didn't fare as well -- mostly crunched-up paint and maybe some structural damage.  I drive an Oldsmobile Regency (the tank), and she had a Ford Focus.

As it turns out, she was just getting off of the phone with her dad, who had said, "Well, I better let you go before you drive off the road."  She was reassuring him and had just hung up when she hit me.  LOL

Anyway, I got her insurance/drivers license and phone number.  Everyone involved is okay, so that's good.  But now I might call her up and ask her out.  :)

Yesterday, for the Fourth, I went tubing down the Salt River with some friends.  That was fun - I'd never been there.  Went from Point 1 to Point 4.  If you've ever seen the Blue Collar Comedy tour, that's the same Salt River that Ron White talks about:

"We floated down the river for six hours drinkin' beer, not one person had to pee.  I'd like to think that my friends wouldn't pee on themselves.  I know I would.  Just paddle up to somebody.  Talk to em while you're peein' on yourself.  That's relaxed right there."

But that was fun notwithstanding.  :)

Anyway, what'd you guys do?

I have a programming folder, and I have nothing of value there

"Hey. Remember me? You crashed into me the other day..."
"Yeah"
"wanna go to a movie or something some time?"
"..."
I can picture that in my head.

Had cousins over, grilled some corn and had some Indian spices (masala!) and played a good 2.5-3 hours of basketball.
Somehow the shitty cousin that we all tease won. Must be because my brother told everybody to not play D on him after he picked up his dribble.

Girls aren't what you think they are.



Anyhow, I chilled at my house and lit lots of fireworks and hung out with my girlfriend.

Went to NJ for a pool party.
Crazy stuff happened.
One must ask oneself: "do I will trolling to become a universal law?" And then when one realizes "yes, I do will it to be such," one feels completely justified.

That's what Krazed tells himself to justify being gay.

Incidentally, it was a long weekend in Canada, too, only we got the Friday off, not the Monday.

Just saying!

I sat on the beach and watched fireworks and some loud/obnoxious/low-life lady yell a lot and talk about how she smuggled drugs into a prison for some other people that were there.

Then I went home and watched more fireworks from our porch.

Was she a planned show?  Like, part of the fireworks?

She wasn't a show, she was an annoyance.

No, it wasn't planned. :P

No. There were a ton of hot girls down there though. Omg, when I was in the store this girl walked in. She could have been my wife, she was 100% perfect in every way. (Well, I don't know her personality but I could pretty much guess it by the rest of her.)

Normally, there is a balance between perfect body and perfect personality.  If you're 100% at body then you're at about 0% on personality.  :P

It wasn't just her body. There were plenty of girls down there that probably had better bodies, I really didn't pay much attention to her body and stuff. Just the overall way she carried herself, it's something I generally don't see in the city.
