My friends on the blogosphere, I come to you from the lakehouse. Greetings.
I had been told previously that my cousin was getting married, had in fact been informed of the wedding shower. However, I was not aware of how close it was until yesterday. It is, in fact, Saturday. Great! So I need to go get some khakis and a dress shirt and a tie and there goes that money I thought I'd have next week >< Oh well, I'm excited for Nate and Amber, and I'm sure a good time will be had by all. Surprise surprise, was even able to get a date together for it. Good to know I can still do these things on such short notice.
I think, really, the best way to define the inter-dynamics of my family was distilled in one picture of my brother taking a shot with my grandmother. Mom and grandma came to be the designated baby sitters while the rest of us got drunk on a dock/pier. Good times. Though, I crashed early. And by early I mean 2 a.m. Getting up at 6 a.m. does that to ya. Still, the beer pong was fun. I am just as horrible at it as I always have been.
The annual poker tournament starts in just a few minutes. I'm pretty stoked. I never win but a good game of poker is always worth it. And, of course, more beer. Because that's how we roll.
Salutations and good night, Interwebs. Drunken text messages and dumb pictures uploaded to facebook always to follow.
Edit: Phone's dead, got taken out with a straight in my hand. Flush took me on all in that only came on the river. Lame.
