Putting the "Wheeeee!" In Weekend!

Wherein our heroine gets "Tore up from the floor up". Family Values Tour was an experience, to say the least. From what I remember of the show, Korn was a great. Oh, and you should never step to some 300 lb. meskin who looks like hitting a chick would be a novelty and not a verboten edict, even if he is being an unreasonable prick.

Saturday, when I was licking my wounds and ruing the day wine was ever invented, I was invited to a wedding in Seguin. I almost didn't go, but not to be outdone by my cousin, who had also drained the wine skin with me on Friday (though maybe not as thoroughly as I had), I decided I'd give it a shot. SHOTS! Did we ever! I had never had Jaeger Bomb shots, and since my cousin and I were splitting them, they didn't turn into a problem for me. I will say that the shots of Patron my cousin drank took her night in a whole new direction. When you're dancing to Y.M.C.A. in front of your family and putting your salsa hips in that jam, you know you've had too much to drink, yes? HA HA! But I can't crow too loudly because she has seen some of my finer Patron-induced calamitous moments, which were not going into now (or ever).

I have definitely hit my quota for calories sipped this month. It's always about that love-hate relationship I think all women (who like beer) have to deal with. Enjoying each golden, fizzy, ice-cold swallow, and damn those barley calories all to hell. Sigh... But I would like to trek to either Austin or SA to the Drafthouse to watch "Beerfest" when it comes out. Yeah, I could probably just watch it at a regular theatre, but I know me and as soon as I see those frothy, sweaty steins, I know I'm going to start to feel absolutely parched. And since it doesn't come out for another 3 weeks or so, I won't have to feel like some drunk-ass loser who parties too much. It's weird though...when I don't go out and do something fun for a while I end up feeling old, but when I do go out I feel kinda bad, like I should have outgrown this or something. I dunno why... I will say that you have not LIVED until youre watching Slingblade at 3:30 in the morning while waiting for water to boil so that you can cook some Kraft pasta primavera from a box, which you don't recall purchasing in the first place. Thank God I didn't go for that grilled cheese, as I found out the morning after that the bread was moldy. Whew! Some fermented products are OK, but you get too much of that working against your system, and I suspect there would be trouble.

Lastly, I shall run down this weekend's flicks in the order watched: "Evil Dead", "Sky High", "Lost in La Mancha", and "Harold and Kumar go to White Castle". Hey, there's not much else to do when you're all beery and lethargic from the night before! I was pleasantly surprised to find that I rather enjoyed "Harold and Kumar", although I couldn't watch the whole battleshits scene; that was just too much for me to handle, but there were quite a few scenes that had me laughing out loud. I had an eventful weekend but not so eventful that I feel as though I didn't rest up for the week ahead of me. Mmmmm, perfect weekend
