Kurt has described Sunday's bash to perfection, so I need not go into further detail there. Saturday involved a trip to Legal Seafoods to celebrate Jen's AMAZING grades for her first year of law school, and a visit to the Cheesecake Factory for cheesecakey dessert afterward....the coconut chocolate cheesecake is, as Kurt puts it, "the pinnacle of cheesecake evolution".

Smaller kite = less drag = more speed! Also Subaru update: The car suffered from a broken axel, not a busted tranny. The new axel will be installed tomorrow, and will cost less than the tow. Awesome. Also shin update: When I was learning, I actually cut my shin open (not badly) in a similar incident. It's a fairly usual thing to happen when you're learning.

Darn it, I just cannot fit on airplanes (even Company F ones). 2) I got swallowed up by NYC. Whirlwind tour, barely got any sleep. 3) Ate some pretty bad Spanish food. Bought some sunglasses. 4) Watched little Italy react as Italia won the WC. 5) Talked on the phone with Mike D. as the Subaru had rocks in its gutter. 1) I took my first red-eye flight.

Better than sitting around at home though, I guess. The kiteboarding sounds pretty rad though, and I'm looking forward to seeing the video when I get home.

Pork tenderloin, sushi, fajitas and and a tasty tasty visit to Redbones. Combined with super HD soccer action and served over ice, this weekend is quite refreshing.

Lets see here...where to begin. Well lets start at the beginning. Friday immediately following work me and shauna went on a little bit of a date to Legal Seafood. I had some sort of Cake with crab in it, and she had green things. then the fun began! We went to see Pirate of the Carribean: Dead Man's Chest (PotC:DMC). I thought it was a good movie. First reason it was good. Pirates. Second reason it was good. More pirates. Then on saturday we had an action filled adventure. We first went to the Wrentham Outlets. We purchased 3 pairs of Puma's , 2 for me 1 for her. We also bought some sort of cheese ssauce from Harry and davids. After we left there we met up with Micah and Evie, john Duell and Naomi, and Neal and Allison. We went to the Nordic Lodge! We drove down to Rhode Island to eat food. TONS OF FOOD! A fatty like you MikeD would have been in heaven with all the Good food and Good friends. Lobster, steak, fried anything, broccoli and Pudding. Oh god the pudding. After 2 hours of gaining weight we proceeded to play a rousing game of Apples to Apples. Sunday was the pinnacle of Human Evolution. We made the trip up to New Hampshire to relax and eat with and even different set of Friends. Micah and Evie again, Shaun and Jen, Shamus and Jen, Eric and Becky, and Paul the Mighty was there. Oh and don't forget Duchess. So we hung out for hours migrating between the pool, thats right POOL, and the lawn. there was Rocket launches, both Water and baloon variety of rockets, Grilled treats for all, and then a great game of loaded Questions, where people learned I work out 10 times a week, Shamus would name his boat "GIGATOR!", and Micah would like to have Mr. Miagi raised from the grave. So many good times were had I had to condense it down to this small post. Whew....A whirlwind of friends is always good. But I'm tired and thats not always a bad thing.
