hello all
i haven't updated my past two weekends so i'm gonna combine them and make this an insanely long entry.
Sept 19 -21: Wildwood NJ
This weekend was Irish Fest. Got there Fri night after work. Dropped stuff of at Jake's place then went to Scott's. It was hot rod weekend too so we hung out with Scott drinking and watching the cars go by. It was hotter than hell so we decided to leave.
Sat morning got up early and went to the field to see the bagpipe competition. Was fantastic. Got sunburnt but loved the music. After this Jake and I went to the boards to see the cars. I know nothing about cars so I just wandered around. There was this kick ass pick up though. On the inside of the tailgate was painted a pic of a hockey player being checked into the glass, blood spraying out of his nose. On the back of the tailgate was the backs of the hockey players, it was hysterical. After wandering around for a few hours we took the tram car back WATCH THE TRAM CAR PLEASE!!! Went drinking that night, met up with my aunt unc and mom at the Beach House. Ran into Phil, guy Jake went through academy with not my bro, and he was hitting on this girl...I think she was Casey from Rutgers...I'm still trying to find out. Anyway, got in fight with Jake and left early. They had this wonderful system of buses and trolleys that went all over the island so we didn't have to drive. Nothing like being on a bus with a shit load of drunks.
Sunday up early again to get our seats at the parade. The budweiser horses were there pulling the beer. it was great! After parade we all went to the Beach House to get our drink on. The band showed up and craziness began. I apparently got very drunk, flashed someone and have pictures of what's underneath the guys kilts. All in all it was a good day.
Jake got a little upset with me cause I was hanging out with my friend Joe but he understands how it is.
On to the next weekend...
Sept 25 - 30: NJ, Alabama, NJ
the 25th was Jacob's bday HAPPY 22nd BIRTHDAY JACOB!! LOVE YA!! Anyway, thurs night we left for Alabama. We all met up at Steve's house in Riverside and left at 11 pm. We apparently drove straight there, I don't remember this cause I slept the whole way, it was a 17hr drive. Got to our hotel in Georgia and Jake and I get our room. We walk in and it's about 300 degrees. We called the front desk to tell them that our air was broken. They sent someone down, he walks in and says in his southern accent"Yep it's broken, ya'll want some fans?" Jake and I looked at each other and tried not to laugh. "No, I want you to fix the air conditioner" They try to put us in another room but the door is broken, so this guy takes out the conditioner and puts in a new one.
Now I know you're wondering what I'm doing in Alabama, I went there for a NAscar race. It was sooooo much fun. We were in the cheap seats next to all the rednecks with no teeth. Plus we had entered the mullet capital of the world. There was this guy that had a mullet that went down to his ass. After the fun times in AL, we left Georgia at 6:30 am Monday and didn't get back to Jersey til 3 am Tues. It was a horrible ride and we've decided we're flying next time.
I'm going to end this now cause it's ridiculously long... if you've read this far you deserve a cookie...sorry I don't have any right now though
