Weekend
Had a very busy weekend. Friday night I finished re-finishing a wall unit I was working on, and was working on moving the tv, dvd, video, gamecube, and playstation into it. I was exhausted after I was done. Then Saturday, we had a garage sale in the morning, and ended up making $120 by selling some of the shit we have lying around. Then we had to split at noon to host my oldest daughter's 6th birthday party at the local leisure center. That was tiring. THEN got home, had to take everything out of the garage to reorganize it, since we didn't sell everything we wanted to. We had to fit it in there somehow, so the reorg was a necessary evil.
so that took me until about 6:00 last night. We live in a townhouse complex, and we had a group BBQ to attend. The beer and wine was flowing, and my buddy and I got up to our usual hi-jinx. He had this old office chair that he had taken the wheels and base off and had screwed a piece of wood on it to use it as a table. Well, being idiots, we started using it to surf on our stomachs. We did this for a while, until my buddy grabbed my feet, swung me around like a slingshot, and the board broke off the wheel base! I surfed thru the air, and when I landed, my fingers on one hand were under the wood piece that I landed on. 220 lbs crushing your hand beneath a sheet of wood. OUCH. After I peeled myself off the cement, I went back to drinking beer to kill the pain. Today, 2 knuckles are scraped, and one finger is black and blue, and really swollen. I got off pretty easy...could've been worse.
After the accident, my buddy and I invented a new way to drink beer. We call it "The Double Beer". We taped two beers end-to-end, would finish one, turn the cans over and start on the next beer. We can only use our invention outside though, as it's pretty messy.
That's about it.
