What a weekend: part 2
There's almost not even a reason to post anything else about the weekend. Something about protecting the innocent. Or was it protecting the guilty? Not sure. But then again, not sure who reads this anyway, so better safe than sorry.
Not to mention the fact that everything after the early morning bike ride is pretty much a blur as it is.
We had plenty of fine home cooked meals, courtesy of my lovely wife (not to say that no one else contributed, but if I'm not naming names for anything else, why start now?).
One thing I can mention is the way we try to relive our college days by playing drinking games. Either that or we're all trying really hard to be able to not remember what happens on these types of trips. Anyway, one of the favorites is flippy cup. And I must say that I have found my Olympic sport of choice! Finally, a "sport" that I can stand behind! I wouldn't even mind going to the practices for this one.
I started out with two others on my team and we dominated! We lost one of our members due to an early morning work schedule, yet that loss did nothing to hinder our domination over the competition. And then, just for shits and giggles, I took on other teams solo. And continued to dominate. And I don't care if you don't like repetition, I'll say it again, DOMINATE!
Now for those of you who don't know what a game of flippy cup looks like, here's what you would have seen:
Well, that's what you would have seen had it been someone else playing and not us. It seems that, conveniently enough, no one bothered to bring a camera to commemorate 10 years of beach dwelling.
Now it's time, I think, to incorporate the flippy cup logo onto the next set of team jerseys we have printed up.
From time to time we also had a random game of three man pop up. We played on top of a Volvo station wagon, on an overturned trash can, I even rolled dice over someone's exposed chest.
So, as long as I don't here any complaints from the Christian Coalition, I'll just leave it at this: we had a great time. Let's see if we can make it ten more years.
But I doubt it. ¶ 2:48 PM
