Awake?

What am I doing at a bar at 5:20?

hung over....bad

Woke up this evening. The sun had already gone down. Wow, wasn't expecting to get that drunk. After all I went to meet a few friends at the bar at 1:30 last night. Its almost 24 hours later and I think I'm still drunk after hibernating for 12 hours. I think I'll be taking a personal day from drinking.

Writing Exercises

Joe and I have been trying to get some writing done, but we seem to be stuck at a point where we need a little help. Joe remembers an exercise from a creative writing class where everyone was given a picture and had to write a short story based on or inspired by the picture. Naturally, the two of us decide to make it a little competition and do a few of these exercises. The picture would be chosen at random and we would write a story for each picture. Today, we deicide to start.

Joe says, "Alright. Google 'random pictures' and see what comes up." We click on the images search section and we get this picture. Wow. Ok, so we have a day to do one story each. I'll be banging my head against the keyboard until something useful comes out.

Going out with Wally and Joe

About to head out to Manhattan to go meet up with Wally and Joe. Just wanted to give this mobile posting do-hickey a try. As a little bonus, here's a nice picture. Its from the EMT night. Enjoy.

Classic Joe

So this is a good one I found from when Zach Efland came to visit us back last Thanksgiving. The three of us were drinking over at Hanley's and after a few hours, we were pretty tipsy. Joe was a little worse off than most. This picture was taken after the EMT tried to take Joe away because he was passed out by the front door of the building and someone had called 911. Zach and I went downstairs to check on him after a few minutes of hanging out in the apartment and found them trying to strap Joe into a wheelchair. I managed to wake him up at the last minute and he bolted upstairs. Then I had to sign something to say that he refused treatment. I walk upstairs and find Joe passed out again in front of the door to our apartment (thats it on the right-hand side). I give him a light kick and he slithers inside only to go into the bathroom and break a glass shelf on himself. There are pictures of that too...

A picture from a couple years ago

Sooooo.... I found this old picture from Coconut Grove in South Florida. I was out drinking with Jin-Soo and we were walking back to my car when we spotted this bright beacon parked outside a hotel. Saw it, touched it, bam! Checked it off on my life's Things to Do List. "See the Oscar Mayer Weinermobile." Check plus.

Boston

Just got back from GP Boston. Kept the boozing to a minimum and was riding pretty high after a 9-0 day 1. I managed to 2-1 the first pod with a decent UW deck that featured two Mind Controls and a Sleep. Besides those three cards the deck was pretty mediocre. The second draft went ok and I felt like my deck was stronger than the first, but I had some bad draws and lost the first round of the second pod. Next round I get a feature match where my opponent gets a game loss. awk. I then get paired against Ben Stark for the second time of the day and he crushes me. I wish we could have drawn but with 1500 people it just wasnt possible. I ended up 9th. Ben and Zach Efland made top 8, which was pretty cool. Florida put up a pretty good showing. I'm gonna write a brief tournament report/article on some type 2 ideas tomorrow and try and figure out exactly what I'm gonna do in regards to my upcoming trip to Vegas this month.
