Halo 2 Day Redux

by

Saturday was another all Halo 2 day. I met up at Johns and played Halo 2 for most of the day and evening. We had 6 people so it was a good game. John, Jayson, Dave, myself and 2 of John’s friends from work came over. In general I still sucked, but surprisingly I was not in last place for a good portion of the games. We played capture the flag and just shoot them up rounds.

I always have fun playing, but my eyes start to hurt after a while. John wanted to play poker at night. I was not into it. I was tired and I am not a fan of playing poker which requires concentration after playing a video game for 7 hours that requires concentration. We ended up going for Italian food around the corner from his place and then he drove Jay and I to the F train. I was thankful for that because by the time we got to the train it was already late and I didn’t want to wait for the 7 and then the 6. I just took a cab from the F train stop by jayson home. I admit I was lazy…

Thursday Night Out, Man I Drank Allot

by

Thursday night a bunch of us went out after work to drink with Gus for one last time (at least as an employee of our company). We went to our typical bar No Idea? We drank. Some more than others. I may have drank more than others, or at least felt that I did. Yes, I got a bit drunk. I am happy to say I made it to work on Friday relatively on time (only an hour late). I didn’t even have hang over. That of course is because I couldn’t sleep and I drank about a gallon of water over the course of the night.

All in all we had a good time. Glenn picked up the tab for allot of the night. We drank, played pool, etc. I threw a drink at Jim. The usual stuff. Glenn said I was drunk and that I should probably not drink more. Then of course we held a conversation related to a big purchase we are in the middle of, so either I was not really drunk or I am just confused…

A good time had by all. I think Jim is dry now so that is good too…

Friday, Gus’ Last Day So Where Is He?

by

Friday was the last day at work for Gus. So where was he? I actually knew he would not be in.  He gave me his key cards for the office on Thursday when we were drinking.  Will we ever see him again?  The jury is still out, even though he lives 3 blocks from Jayson…

Friday Night Team Dinner

by

Friday night my team and I went out for the holidays.  Kai and Brian came down for the dinner.  We went to a Angelo & Maxie’s.  We like that place.  Cari tagged along since Bob could not make it.  All in all we had a good time.  Because of what we do, we never all get together.  Kai and Brian left the call center early and came down.  Thankfully nothing broke after they left.

We didn’t drink that much since most of us drank the night before at the Gus goodbye "party".  I had a filet, and the cheese cake for desert.  It was good as always.  Jayson was not happy with his food, but he was getting sick.  Danny had 2 potato’s and that was it.  I can’t see going to a nice steakhouse and ordering two plain baked potatoes, but he was happy so I guess it is ok.

I am so blacklogged on writting that I am going to cut this post short.  More happened, bla, bla, bla.  Fun had by all, etc.  You get the picture.
