Crazy Night of Debauchery and Drinking

Thursdays are starting to get ridiculous. I barely drink otherwise but then comes Thursday in the Square and suddenly I have a beer in each hand the moment I get there. This week the band was Better than Ezra.

You probably remember them singing this song on the radio and while that song was pretty good and the crowd was generally into them, thats about the only song I enjoyed. They definitely seems like a really heavily production studio dependent band. The singer is pretty hot though.

This is not at thursday in the square

I went with (e:terry) and a friend from work. We then met up with (e:vincent), (e:enknot) Casey and (e:enknot)'s friend Andrew. For some reason they all wanted to go to the gay bars. I guess the cheaper, stronger drinks. After that we headed over to primo pizza on Chippewa, then (e:enknot) and I ran almost all the way to Allen street at full speed.

Everyone else went to staples and the pink, I decided I wanted to go dancing at Ohm but when we got there it was closed. Well at least the door was locked, so we ended up at cathode where I tried to find a girl for my straight buddy but instead ended up being hit on by some old guys.

Then the best part was going home and eating smoked salmon with apples. Ya fish. Sometimes I think I should have been a sea lion.

This morning it all ended with breakfast at ambrosia

Sushi time

I had an amazing day programming but forgot to eat in the hecticness.
By 9 pm I was starving and decided to take myself out to dinner.

It was weird going out alone. Not something I often do but in the end
I liked it and ate the fishes till I was full.

Allentown Art Festival

Found these pics on my phone. The stretch down Allen heading
toward Allen west festival made me so claustrophobic.

The Lake Effect ice cream company

out of lockport, NY had some amazing flavors. I had salty caramel and (e:james) had Guiness Stout. Strangely, they proofed him for the ice cream. I never saw someone proof before for food with alcohol as an ingredient.

They also have a facebook page

and a commercial. They could really use a better commercial.

I was hoping to win the Vespa below. I bet $5, (e:Jim) bet $20. I guess
neither of us won, either that or he is keeping it a secret. The
money went to Theatre of Youth. The inside of their theatre on allen
was really nice. Someone said it used to be a porn theatre in the
80s. Can anyone verify that?

Reptiles are where I draw the line

Watching the cook slide his greasy hands through the blackend fat
chunks of alligator to separate it from the meat made me want to make my own kind chunks.

The Church of the Ascension parking

I guess the church people just have a love for parking on grass. Look
how much they already extended their strip of gravel by putting rocks
over the grass they ripped up parking on it. I wonder how far it's
gonna go. The more they park on the grass, the more torn up it gets,
the more of a parking lot they have.

Soon they will gravel over the whole thing. I mean look it's not even
a freakin straight line. The end is at a 15 degree angle into the
grass.

At least they have less cars than yesterday (e:paul,48965)

When we first moved in they only had a 3.5 foots strip that they kept parking over. Now its a full 5-6 foot area. Notice only 3.5 foot of skirt is on their property which means they use ours or just drive over the grass.

The parking lot at the church

Seriously, today the priest next store parked on the church's lawn.
Followed by other people. Just as I predicted before it looks like a parking lot through the window. Now they have two rows and are right over the lawn.

Who parks on a lawn? Are these people from the country or what? When the priest does it on dance camp day it really send the wrong message about parking etiquette. He always tries to tell me he is so against illegal parking, whatevs.

The frustrating part is they drive over our driveway to get there.
