Afterglow 2009 - Day 4 Tuesday

Home

The Brewers were playing against the Washington Nationals, the worst team in all of baseball. So you think that they would win then, right? Not today folks. After getting their behinds spanked yesterday by a score of 14-6 , we could only stomach so much of another disappointing game. The Brewers lost this game 8-3, and although it really upset me, I couldn't be too mad cause I was at Afterglow. Brian on the other hand, just lost it.

I'm pretty sure that I mentioned it was rather cold today, but I'm too lazy to go back and look up if I said it. My loss. But as you can see from this picture, nobody was in the water. Not even the regulars like Kevin, Brian, Stacy and I. That's how you know that the weather was not cooperating today. Stupid weather.

It was time to get ready for the campfire, so I went back to the cabin to do a shot of Shrek's Piss. That is my new favorite shot, and I doubt that this will be the last time I talk about it on one of my sites. All that it is is a Monster Energy shot and vodka, but Shrek's Piss just sounds cooler. Plus it's from Role Models.

When we were at Rick and Maria's house for Tommy's birthday right before Afterglow, we held a 1-on-1 ping pong tournament. For those of who don't know, Tommy is pretty damn good at ping pong. I'm pretty good at pong myself, but unfortunately it's a different kind of pong. I used to play ping pong a lot before I retrofitted my table into a beer pong table, and although I've lost a step or two, I'd like to say that I'm no slouch at ping pong. Of course then Brian would chime in and tell me not to sell myself short, because I'm a tremendous slouch. 

I writing this from an airplane on the way out to Columbia, South Carolina to visit my brother. That is the first time in the history of pookon.com that I can say that. I wanted to get an alcoholic beverage, but all I have is 2 singles and a $100 bill. That doesn't do much for you up here, so I will be writing under the influence of Coca-Cola from here on out. Someday I will probably come back and reference this moment. You just watch me dude. You just watch me.

Tommy and I had decided to play a best 2 out of 3 at his house. We each won a game, but for whatever reason, we never got around to playing the 3rd game. We decided to schedule the rubber match for Afterglow, and although I don't really remember too much, I'm sure that Tommy won because he is by far a superior player than I am.

Tonight was Timmy's turn to make dinner, so I thought we would be treated to eggplant or Boca burgers or some vegetarian "delight". He did make non meat stuff for him and Jenny, but he did keep us meat eaters in mind too. What a great little dude! Now Tim has been off the meat for probably well over a year now (if not close to 2 years) but damn can that kid still grill up a tasty burger. There were some other things to eat, but to be honest with you, I only remember the burger because it was just that good. I may have had some veggies too. I don't know.

I whipped together some other kind of random shot for James, Melissa and I to do. I don't remember what it was, but it could have been anything since our liquor shelf in Cabin #2 rivals that of any bar or liquor store. Like Old Country Buffet, there really is something for everyone there. And everyone leaves satisfied.
