Believe it or not, I don’t really have any good stories from the day. The ticket endeavor worked like a charm as we were able to get rid of every ticket for a 10 dollar price. I probably gave back 50 or so during the day but without the bartenders, we wouldn’t have been able to make it work. I think we got to Mad River at about 2:30 and it was already starting to get crowded. By 5 it was completely packed. The bands were pretty good and despite some repeats of songs, everyone was enjoying themselves. To my recollection I had 3 beers before we got there at 2:30, another 6 or so while we there and tack on a shot and probably about 4 mind erasers. I can remember 4 specifically so that tally could easily be 6. By 7 I was in front of the band and decided to find out where everyone went and I was the only person there. At that point I walked back and got some beef lo mein from the Chinese place. When I got back there was Jeff, Mael, and Julie and I think it was around 8 or so. We played some quarters and by 10:30 I wasn’t functioning properly anymore. I’m usually pretty good at quarters and I literally couldn’t make a shot and most of them were going directly into the table and not bouncing anywhere. At that point I made a wise decision and passed out at around 10. If I would have gone out I would have been asking for trouble and at that point, it was the right move. So I don’t have anything wildly entertaining from the day but I still thought it was a good time.
My fantasy teams had a 2-2 week with wins coming in leagues I needed wins in and losses in leagues I could afford them. The turkeys, without my 1st, 2nd, and 3rd round picks still managed 120+ points but lost to Evan to give him his first win. (baring Chad Henne throwing 4 picks and 0 yards.) The Nuts also lost in a lackluster performance but the Terminators dominated and the Mind Erasers also had a big week being led by TO. Plus my eliminator in the Chargers won with ease. I also had one bet this week on the Giants and I am now up 30 bucks on the season moving into week 5.
I’m not going to give a big rundown of shows although I did watch all my normal Sunday TV. I actually wasn’t really impressed with any of them. Dexter seems to be off on a weird tangent with avg story lines developing. Eastbound and Down made a wise decision to bring Stevie back because he really is the best character on the show. Family Guy was one of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen and they should stick to making people laugh rather than political humor. Boardwalk empire was one of those, is anything going to happen episodes and I didn’t really find it all that entertaining. Weeds is tonight and I really enjoyed the last episode and hope that tonight’s is equally good.
Ambler bball tonight to move to 3-0. Other than that everything is pretty normal and with cold weather moving in, the season’s are changing. I know this isn’t the most exciting post but it’s early in the week and I tend to function poorly in the beginning and get better as the days move along.
