Jim’s bachelor party was this weekend which made a for a good time. It was a suuuuper busy weekend starting Friday night at a Lan Party that Malcolm, Dave Schmeller and I went to (pics coming soon). The Lan was fun, Malcolm and I got second place in the CS:S tourney.
Vu showed up at around 3:45 and the Lan dissolved at around 4:00AM and we took Malcolm home and then we drove to Shari’s and had breakfast from 5:00am to 6:00am. Went to sleep sometime after that and woke up at about 2:00pm Saturday and got the ball rolling on the Bachelor party. We checked into the hotel and filled the bathtub up with ice to keep our beer cold. We had WAY too much beer. 2 Mini kegs (one Coors Light, one Heinekin), 48 Miller High Life’s and 15 MGD’s.
We left the hotel for Brew Fest around 7:00pm and got 13 tokens each and a mug. I had about 5 beers at Brew fest ranging from disgusting (Triple Hopped something or other) to Delicious (some foreign style pilsner). We left Brew fest and went back to the hotel. I called my cousin and he showed up for a bit. We ordered 4 pizzas and went down to the pool. We swam for a bit before getting kicked out (we got in the pool after it was already closed). We went back to the hotel had a few more beers before heading downtown portland to bar.
We closed the bar out and then walked back to the hotel and crashed. We got up at 9:40 and had continental breakfast and then left the hotel. We met up again for Dinner at Gustav’s and then headed to Sam’s Appt. to go swimming. We swam and then watched some episodes of The Loop and drank the rest of the Heineken keg and then we all went home and went to sleep.
I think the bachelor party was a big success and fun was had by all involved.
Pics of everything coming soon.
I didn’t die in Seattle or anything. It was a pretty fun weekend, the party at Shea’s was fun and Sunday was pretty lazy. The drive home was quick; I made it from exit to exit (U-District exit on i5 to mill plain exit on i205) in 2:04. That means I average 83mph, pretty damn fast. I could feel the difference with the new exhaust and muffler, more horse power means less slowdown going up hills means higher average speed = win.
I worked at home Monday because my camera was supposed to arrive and no one was around with the parents in the Caribbean. The DHL guy didn’t show up until 5:20pm, so I stayed home for nothing. Oh well. The camera is pretty tight. I’ve been messing around taking random pictures. I think I’ll get a lot more out of it this weekend…
…This weekend is Jim’s bachelor party. He’s getting married Aug. 18th so I had to have it some time. Right now the plan is to go to beer fest in Portland on Saturday then go to a hotel room and have a hotel party, optionally go to bars downtown afterwards. The current plan for Sunday is paint balling in the afternoon. Should be a pretty fun weekend 
First off, my new camera should arrive today. DHL Tracking sucks and skimps on details but, says delivery is July 20th. Hopefully it will arrive in time for me to take up to Seattle this weekend.
Next, my team is going to Big Al’s for some fun-filled team building. We’re leaving at 12:00 for lunch there and then we’re bowling from 1:30-3:30. I really suck at bowling because I typically try to see how much spin I can put on the ball as opposed to how many pins I can knock down. I think last time my 2-game total was around 100.
After bowling I’ll be departing for my aforementioned trip to Seattle. I’m going up to hang out with the guys in KA. Tonight there is a rush event; we’re going to dinner at 7:00 and then going to watch the new Harry Potter movie on IMAX. The rest of the weekend will be spent chilling and working on recruitment/house stuff.
Finally, my parents are flying out tonight for week and a half cruise to the Caribbean. They should have a LOT of fun! That means my brother and I are charged with keeping the pets fed, the plants watered and the house (relatively) clean. Next week should prove to be a quite one with half of the family gone.
My friend works at the Bartell’s in U-village in Seattle and he sent this out to the KA list serv today:
this sure made work a little more interesting than it usually is:
