Weekend wonderful

Yesterday was quite wonderful. We went down early for the IU football game and did some tailgating. It was nice to see everyone and hang out and eat and watch the game. Also, Andy learned that he can play cornhole with his foot. Very interesting. I also got to see Ann's new place, which is so very college, in it's way. I love how their place always smells like maple syrup; it makes it feel much more home-y. Oh, PS, IU won! Yay! Kellen Lewis is really the only reason we have a team, so the rest of the season might be iffy. Oh, and Andrew Means too.

Then home, then back up north. I opted out of Axis and Allies. The manual to that game is longer than some books I have read! What in the world? Really, it just looked too complicated for me to enjoy, and, when playing strategy games with Holtz, you really have to enjoy it because you are probably going to get beat, like Andy and Daniel did :(. I must say, there was something a little odd about watching The Sound of Music and having them play that game. PS I have obviously never watched that movie all the way through, or I repressed some of it. I do not remember some of the songs at all. Also, after the wedding, nothing was familiar to me. So much Nazis! And that little fuck-up bitch soldier who ratted them out...I would have shot him. Straight up. Fuck him for being a Nazi whore. That really would have brought a whole 'nother level to the movie though, and I am not sure that a '60's musical film director would have wanted to go there. I would love to have Quentin Tarantino direct a new version! Can you image? Ooo, that would just be wonderfully hilarious in a desecrate-an-award-winning-movie kind of way. Guarantee that Nazi solider would get his. Guaranteed.

PS #2 IMDb tells me that Christopher Pummer, aka the Dad in Sound of Music is still alive and acting! Good for him! Also, he is going to be in The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, Heath Ledger's last movie. Just one more reason to see it!

Back to the task at hand, no more postscripts. But there was much talking otherwise; sometimes my tongue gets the best of me. I did learn about the EOD, though, which, contrary to some opinions, is not a common acronym. Really, when would the common folk use EOD in normal speech? When, I ask you?! Beth always teaches me things, and that is good.

I was so horribly tired at the the end of the day. Sun and eating and waking up at 6:45am just make be exhausted. I wish I could remember some of the amazing quotes from yesterday because there was much laughing and joyousness.
