Parallel Johnny

It was a packed weekend.  Friday after work was Sara and Bill’s party at McGee’s I was kinda worried when about 10:45 it was still just Chrissy, Lauren and me.  11 o’clock hit and everyone showed up within minutes of each other.  It was a decent crowd; I’d say about 20 of us.  By the time everyone showed it was too late to get pizza, so half of us ended up at Linda’s afterwards.  Not often do I get to spend time at Linda’s with Adam.  He, Chrissy and I stayed until almost 4AM.  Got to bed around 5.

Woke up the next day to get ready for Kevin and Carolyn’s wedding.  Picked up Lauren and Lisa and got there 5 minutes late, which was about a third of the ceremony.    It ended by 3:30 and we had 2.5 hours to kill before the reception.  We thought about going to Chuck E Cheese, then Chrissy called from the 2001 reunion and asked us to come.  Since Lisa nor I were 2001, we decided to drop Lauren off and get Wally’s custard.  We came back about 20 minutes later.  I got to see Shawn’s baby, Kyra for the first time in months.  We took Chrissy home to get ready for the reception and the four of us headed out (Chrissy and Lisa’s dates were in the wedding party).

Thankfully when we got there we found that all of us were seated together with Mrs. Beltz.  It was a huge relief.  I had a good time.  I had a few shots with Mrs. Seifferlein, then when Bethany came back from putting Xander to bed, I did a few with her.  She went from quiet-in-the-corner to twirling-around-the-dancefloor.  Its been a while since I’ve been on the dance floor with my friends, it reminded me of a high school dance.  Even more so because we got all dressed and up went to Chrissy’s first.  Her parents took pictures before we left.  Then after the reception we all came back, had pizza and stayed up late.  We spent the night and Craig made us pancakes and bacon in the morning.  Just like high school.

Sunday was spent recuperating.  I slept most of the day, watched a movie, played  some warriors, did laundry.  Lauren came over later and we watched some TV.  I didn’t get to bed until like 3AM, hence the office zombie post.  I’m feeling good now after a few cups of coffee and a cup of tea. I’ll probably crash once I get home.

I got a coffee from the cafeteria rather than the machine today.  This is the most vile, horrible tasting coffee ever.  It tastes like my dad’s (I have my own coffee maker, because his is so bad) or Tim Hortons *shudder*.  Its sad to think I’d rather drink instant coffee from the machine.

Why can’t people just support the local and (in my opinion) the best tasting coffee around, Cadillac — made right here in Madison heights, Michigan.

I feel like I am one of the living dead.  Time to go grab some coffee, the elixir of life.  The weekend took quite a toll on me, but thats for later.
