My. God. This weekend was quite a fun time. Friday night, I had a bunch of drinks, then turned 21 and hit the bars where I subsequently got more drinks (and more drunk). It was a great time, and for a long while I fought the forces that compelled me to continue to drink beyond that point where I draw the line (namely Aaron and Jen) and I was winning the battle. Was, that is, until the bouncer who had carded me remembered that it was my birthday and decided to do a Jager bomb with me. I made it all the way home, was in bed, and was trying to fall asleep before I passed the tipping point and was forced to foul my garbage can (placed with a large amount of foresight directly adjacent to my bed). When I woke, I felt sluggish and nautious for a few hours (probably the closest to being legitimately hung over that I have ever been) and I felt like passing out and\/or puking in the shower, but after a while I felt better. My dad came down, as well did Sarah and Chris, and they and I and Aaron went out to eat dinner at Cheddar&#8217;s. Funny story: if they run out of mashed potatoes at Cheddar&#8217;s, they will express their laments that they are lacking in potatoes that have been mashed, and instead will offer you other potato products such as twice baked potatoes or a baked potato. You&#8217;re thinking <em>well, isn&#8217;t that considerate of them<\/em>, but here&#8217;s what the general consensus was: Aaron&#8217;s twice baked potato resembled the hell out of a pile of mashed potatoes wherein the outside had been made slightly brown, and baked potatoes can be thought of as dry mashed potatoes that just haven&#8217;t lost their continuity. Needless to say, we improvised a little. Also, I think I&#8217;m the first kid who drinks to turn twenty-one and order milk at his birthday dinner, then subsequently go out and get trashed. Don&#8217;t even try to figure that one out. My dad and I and some friends got drunk at my house, got some T-Bell, and then headed to Del&#8217;s. We played some pool and had a couple of pitchers and then came home and passed out.<\/p>\n<p>After my dad left, I cleaned myself up and prepped myself for the next weekend experience: House of Blues Chicago for the <em>Hellogoodbye<\/em>, <em>Acceptance<\/em>, <em>Panic! At the Disco<\/em>, <em>The Academy Is&#8230;<\/em> concert. If you haven&#8217;t seen these bands, do it now. NOW. It was a great time. I had fun getting sweaty in the pit, I caught a drumstick from the drummer of <em>Acceptance<\/em>, and I was sexually assaulted by a seventeen year old girl. Yeah, that&#8217;s right, I was the victim, lol. I&#8217;m not like mad or anything, it was just a little wierd. I was trying to get down into the pit after taking a small break between bands, and a drunk girl started to rub up on me, then make out with my neck and generally do things that I wouldn&#8217;t consider to be valid first date behaviour, so after we couldn&#8217;t seem to get past her into the pit, we went the other way around. It&#8217;s still funny when I think about it.<\/p>\n<p>I put off doing homework and getting a haircut and doing my laundry and other various responsible activities for this weekend, and it was awesome. As a result, this week is going to subsequently suck.<\/p>\n<p>Je pense que c&#8217;est la vie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oh. My. God. This weekend was quite a fun time.
