Skyway/naked bike rides - nsfw
So the rumors were true, there is going to be a ride on the skyway on May 31st (the day after Buffalo's only critical mass).
It's kind of expensive at $40 a pop for GOBike members but it's a really good fundraising idea. I'm planning on volunteering, if anyone else wants to, it gets you on the ride and a free beer.
You can sign up here.
If only we could get a www.worldnakedbikeride.org in June. It sounds ridiculous but I feel like it'd be so fun. Henry from GoBike said there might be one. Maybe I should start a facebook event for it - if we have enough people you can't be arrested right?

Dyngus day
We headed to the main area outside of the Central Terminal. Note for the future: you probably can find a wrist band in the trash heap/ground. I guess it's for the Central Terminal so maybe a good cause?
Although it came up on google - Paul didn't think so - (e:paul,38839)
The polka band was awesome in a weird way. I can't picture dancing to that music any other time but it was a good time. (e:Paul) got hit on by a married man, we found a ground beer, the weather was perfect and the crowd was so sloppy-energetic.
It does seem a little weird that the whole region flocks to the city's most forgotten neighborhood just once a year to get loud and drunk, and then never comes back. I wonder how the residents feel about it?
Afterwards Emily left but we all headed to DBGB's. The was free food but it was only sausage and pasta - blech. We danced a little more before walking home actually just at midnight so I got to sleep.
Prost! (don't know what poles say)
The only polish person got pussy willowed
Someone was flying this helicopter with a camera on it - I want to fly one
Some girl and her pink flamingo
I want to post this one picture of Lindsay but she'd kill me.

Weekend of birthdays
Afterwards, (e:flacidness) and his cousin came over to hang out with Terry, while (e:paul) fell asleep in front of the fire. I headed out to Hardware for Catherine's birthday. It was some artvoice thing that night, and it was so packed with bros we didn't stay very long.
Carrie, Lindsay and I got some Lloyd's. My burrito was so hot it made me start crying. I had to stop at 7-11 for water. We were hung out at Lindsay's but we accidently woke up her mom.
Saturday night (e:xandra) came over to celebrate her birthday. (e:czarkasms) brothers even came over. It was a good time but I was so tired, I had to take a napchen pretty early.
Paul and I left for a bit to take (e:Mike) home after his daydrinking ended with a tireslashing.

CSV Writer
Writing the initial version of the script was straight forward logic-wise, although I did have some trouble connecting to a Azure MSSQL server. After the database was changed to a MySQL database, it worked perfectly.
Then I sat down with Paul and we worked on making it object oriented, fully commented and documented, completely abstracted and reusable. It was really satisfying to take something simple like that and flesh it out fully. The auto-PHPdocs are really cool. I've gotten paid for programming jobs before but that was probably the cleanest job I've worked on.
I really want to work on more freelance type scripting jobs now that I have a better idea of how to setup a good workflow.

Easter dinner
Easter dinner was amazing. I went home to my parents, where we had so many friends and relatives over.
There was a bunch of delicious Lebanese food like taboleh and spinach pies. We had cake to celebrate 314 years of birthday.
My mom got me an easter basket - Ill try and keep the candy addiction away.

Hike at the Gorge
We went up today to wandern up at the gorge. It was a perfect temperature, so good to be outside more now.
The water and rapids were crazy high today. Most of the low rocks were submurged. (e:terry) and I went spelunking in holes and almost a sewer overflow.

Alley Cat Bar
Unfortunately I forgot my phone, so I had no pictures. It was done really well inside. The music was kind of dad rock type of stuff but that may have been the bartender's choice. They're food mostly comes from Allentown pizza if you're into that.
The bar was dead besides the bartender and his daughter( it was a Tuesday night). He was super talkative and friendly - he kept feeding us pretzels and popcorn.
But at the end of the night he barely charged us anything for the 7 total beers. I think he officially charged us $16 for something that should have been at least $28. We left more than the difference in cash but it still seems crazy to make a mistake that big.

Sunday walk and Kaydara
It made me think that as much as I love Buffalo, if you were someone from out of town and had to stay downtown, it's really freaking depressing, especially before the summer. It'd be just as easy to think that's all there is to Buffalo as if you stayed out on Transit Road.
Historic Tim Horton's cups in a building on Franklin
This, along with the 99 Bills tickets billboard makes Buffalo look like a ghost town. He played for us in the mid 90's. Does that make this sign historic now?
Afterwards we went to Kaydara for lunch. (e:paul) got the shrimp bowl, while (e:terry) and I split a bunch of veggie tofu options. They were really tasty, especially the creme brulee dessert. The waiter was actually a kid who grew up on my street. The manager was super nice but a bit crazy. She made Terry a really good coffee and even gave us extra to split.
Then we finished up dumpstering at home. We got the disgusting green room rug out the window and a bunch of rotten logs from the yard. Here's Paul with his conquest.
