The Deuce Fo’

Friday night to Fort Collins for a graduation party of one of our friends. It was an absolute blast; drinking, dancing, partying, ridiculous photo shoots, grandparents doing jello shots, and so much more.

It started off pretty casual with a good amount of family there, 2 kegs and some jello shots, and before I know it, I’m getting introduced to moms, sisters, grandmas, and we’re all taking jello shots together. There was an AMAZING cake —-> It was difficult to cut, but it was soooo good. Bobcat and I signed up for some beer pong using our secret technique and managed to get on the table in practically no time. We proceeded to run it, including some clutch victories and one stunning blowout. Wanting to get back to the party we tagged in 2 of our new friends and the ran it until the table closed down. We got back to the party… I gathered a few girls, started snapping some photos, and next thing you know we are in the middle of a full fledged photo shoot. Ridiculous, naughty, strenuous, and absurd poses ensued. Life got a little hazy but a serious highlight of the night is when the pizza guy showed us and some guys at the party pulled this move but in reverse. Props.

The night was winding down and Coco grabs a guitar and starts this ridiculous slowjam acoustic freestyle. Friggin’ hilarious. Kid’s got some serious skills. Speaking of hilarious musical comedy acts…

Saturday night – Flight of the Conchords.

Sweetness. All around.  It’s a bit different than your normal concert, because half the show is just them talking back and forth with each other, which ends up working out really well. They played with Iron and Wine¹ and Arj Barker, the actor who plays Dave on the show. I think I had at least a grin on my face the entire time, often verging into full blown laughter,  I may have even tossed in a guffaw at some point. I’d see them again in a heartbeat.

Let’s see if these pictures work….

This coming weekend is Memorial Day, and I’m not sure what’s on the plate yet, but Sunday I am planning on attending this bad boy. Maybe throw in some camping and a cookout or two. As I said before, the summer is awesome…

SHIP THE CONFERENCE FINALS!

It’s basically here.

I have some pretty big plans for this summer/early fall and am really pumped about it all. Summer is the time for (in alphabetical order): baggin’ rays, baseball games, beer fests, Boulder, camping, concerts, cookouts, flings, gambooooool, great food (I think I could say this about every season), golfing, hiking, ladies, movies, outdoooooors, parties, pools, roo, running, sandals, shorts, skirts on those ladies!, trips, V, and probably even more other exciting things that I can grab out of the air right now.

In the immediate future, some grad parties going on this weekend and on Saturday night, Flight of the Conchords with Iron and Wine @ Red Rocks. I’m really pumped for it.

I’m trying to figure out the specifics of some of the things that I want to do this summer and it’s currently looking like June 5th-14th is going to be booked. I think that there will be some Memorial day weekend shenanigans in the mix, and at least one camping trip coming up in the next two weeks. Speaking of camping! I have a very serious urge to do a lot of it this summer, in fact I think I’m going to end up getting a sweet tent and some other camping accessories and maybe running off into the woods for a while. There’s just something about the Colorado summer that really makes you want to spend as much time as you can outside, so we’ll see where this leads…

The Boulder farmer’s market opened up it’s Wednesday market last week and I think that I’m going to try to start doing a fresh dinner Wednesday nights with stuff from there. Try some new and interesting things at least. I picked up mint, basil, purple basil, and a flower pot last week, and although I can’t tonight, next week some artesian bread, CO beef, and fresh herb/veggie combo is probably in the works.

On the reading side of things, I’ve been running the slack train as usual. This is partly due to the fact that the Nuggets have been kicking so much ass in the playoffs that my free time is taken up with a lot of that, and I’ve been busy with some other things. But, it is time to get back on the horse and rip through some books. I have three that I’d really like to get finished up with in the next 2-3 weeks. About 650 pages to get through. Do it. Do it. Ha! I almost forgot, I did manage to get through one book, but to be fair, it was a 42 page e-book. That however does not detract from it’s awesomeness and it’s in a whole ‘nother category anyways.

Summer love.

So look at what we have here!

It’s so… NEW! I’m going to kick things off in style probably tomorrow with a real post, but for now I’m glad to have everything sorted out¹.

There will still be some hustlin’ and bustlin’ so if you come here and it doesn’t look the way it did last time… well shit, that’s just how it is.
