St. Patrick's Day Bunco


Saint Patrick's Day is one of my favorite holidays. I love being Irish. I love wearing green. So on March 17th, everyone can join in on the fun.

Last night was bunco night and Nadya hosted.

Since I never remember to take pictures during the happy hour, dinner or game. I wait til the end when the winners and biggest loser is being determined.

Nadya has the best laugh. Remember when she used her lawn chair to carry her beer cans The Night We Took a Journey Topless?
Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

The Darwin Award Goes To...

Last night, I celebrated my 34th birthday at The Neighbors house.


Caroline told a story that had us all collectively say, that is a Darwin Award if we'd ever heard one.
This story deserves a Darwin Award
It began with her boss' mechanic named John.


John's dog was old and sick with cancer. Instead of taking the animal to the vet to be euthanized or as Kay the Redneck's family would do, out back and shoot it, he decided the more humane way would be to leave the dog in his garage, with the car running, so he'd die of carbon monoxide.


Although I didn't agree with this approach, I thought it was an interesting thought process.


After a significant amount of time, John went into the garage to check to see if his dog had moved on to the great doghouse in the sky.


He had.


Unfortunately for John, he didn't open the garage door.


He died too.
This story deserves a Darwin Award


Here's to you John!

Flashback Friday (Part 51) - The Birthday Ambush

Yesterday was my 34th birthday so this week's Flashback Friday is focused on my 29th birthday in 2005.


My friend and coworker Susana very easily coerced me to leave the office a few minutes early to go to happy hour. She was calling from the parking lot and said, come down now, Let's Go!


So, in my own daydreaming bubble, I snuck out walked quickly to my car and then realized something was not quite right.

Tim and The Neighbors had ambushed my car and filled it completely to the top with balloons.

Note the orientation of the photos, Chris, who I have warned you about before here, was literally laying under the car across the aisle so I didn't see him. Meanwhile, Caroline and Tim just ducked down behind a different car like normal people.

That night we did not eat sloppy joes and french fries. If you don't know the story, please read it here. Everyone who knows Tim and I, Needs to know this story. It explains a lot.
