Last Sunday, (e:Paul), (e:Terry) and I managed to do some cleaning before we headed outside for the amazing weather. We rescued my brother from CHS open house, went out for lunch and then drove up for hiking to Niagara Gorge.


Shish Kebob Express - really good and the prices weren't terrible. I'm glad Emily told us about it.

It was an awesome day for a hike. We then went home, had a good dinner/apple crisp with Brian and Holly before the macsanity began.

IDK what to title it, I just need to catch up!

On Saturday, I stopped at RadioShack to for some parts to fix an old air hockey table. They're now down to two racks of electronics parts, with the rest of the store selling phones and electronics you can get online for way less. I'm surprised they exist still.

Afterward I went to Goodwill to see if there was any good Halloween costume stuff. While I didn't find anything, I did see they were selling this giant full size VHS camcorder, and a B*Witched CD.



When I got home, (e:terry) and I were going to check out Porchfest, but it was already over. I didn't hear too much about it so I don't think we missed anything?

Instead we headed over to (e:YesThatCasey)'s new place to pick up Terry's bike and play some video games. They were all super weird. I'm terrible at video games but these were sort of manageable. Terry rode back while I ran.

Emily and Kevin came over from Falafel Bar since Kevin was home on fall break. It took a while, but eventually we managed to get up and head out to Hardware.



We ended up schlamping it up at DBGB's to some really slow music, and then the Pink (definitely wasn't drunk enough for that but there we were).

Not too crazy of a night but a good one for sure.

Gypsy Parlor this past Friday was fun, with (e:YesThatCasey), (e:Paul), (e:Terry) and Sameer. It seemed pretty light in terms of crown and dancing, but I guess it hasn't even had it's grand opening yet so word hasn't gotten out. The building itself was very well renovated, and the food was good. They had some good beers also, even though they seemed expensive.

Paul took home a hot date for the HOloweenHalloween party. He seemed a little stiff to me, but whatever!

After we left the wedding reception around 10 on Saturday night, (e:paul), (e:terry) and I headed to Jones Pond to catch up with (e:mike) and (e:libertad). Even though we didn't get in until after midnight, we did get there in time to witness Mike threatening to throw Dave in the fire, because he didn't get walked to the bathroom. I'd be upset too.





I didn't take many pictures after my phone died. Sunday was super relaxing and consisted mostly of an easy hike, laying in the sun all day, and tossing the football around for a bit. I hadn't been to Jones before but apparently this was the last weekend for camping, so we were pretty much the only ones there.

We drove back home in the late afternoon, and then had an absolutely amazing potato cheddar soup that Terry made (didn't even need to be turned into falafel).

Pic does not do it justice

Definitely a relaxing end to a crazy weekend.

Last weekend (still so over a week behind) (e:Paul) and I caught up with (e:Terry), (e:heidi), (e:dianne), (e:YesThatCasey) and (e:xandra) at Goodbar for part of Barb and Cara's bachelorette party. It was really nice to meet them and really awesome of them to invite me to tag along with Paul and Terry to the wedding and reception the next day.



Selfies as per ush

After Goodbar, the three of us headed out to Rendevous to use our free tickets to some DJ. The music was pretty decent and dancing was fun, but we didn't stay long since it was already so late and Terry was absolutely wiped.

Cool kids

The next day was the wedding at Pilgrim-St. Luke's on Richmond, followed by the reception at Aqcua. It was a very cute celebration and the reception was awesome. I wish them all the best!
