Weekend in Review

This was a weekend that I was looking forward to while also demising it. I was looking forward to it because it was supposed to be in the 80s plus the Cubs were in town. The Cubs are not in town over the weekend until September so I knew this might be the only warm time to go down to the ballpark for the good rivalry. The bad part was that I was just coming off a cold/flu/whatever where I was sick for the past 2 weeks. Plus (the real kicker) I had a 10 page paper due, a 10 page group paper, and presentation due for my Marketing class. I had not even started my individual paper.

I did not end up doing anything on Friday except watching NBA playoffs. I was exhausted from being sick so could not muster up the energy to do any homework.

I slept over 12 hours on Friday night. It was awesome. It was the first day I woke up feeling good in weeks. Unfortunately I did not feel like working so I went to Jeff’s for a “draft party.” Basically we drank and cooked on the grill while we watched the NFL draft and the Cards game. We then hurried to my place to meet up with a bunch of other people to go to PaddyO’s and Al’s after the game. All I can say is that it was packed and I (we) had way too much of a good time. I”l leave it at that. By the end of the night, the group of 10 guys was spread out all over the city for various reasons due to alcohol. Mike and I ended up at Harry’s because I knew some people there. It was insanely packed. I am guessing because of the Cubs in town plus it was probably the first warm Saturday of the year so everyone was out. There was attractive ladies all over the place and I ran into a lot of people that I knew. One of the highlights of the night that I can say in this blog was Mike’s (Mike #2 for some of my friends) drunkiness. He had no clue that we went to Paddyos and vaguely remembered going to Maurizo’s by himself. I went home and my friends kept strangling in through the night. I woke up to Mike talking excessively on the phone and found two girls passed out on my couches. That is a whole another story in itself.

I tried to do my papers on Sunday but was so tired from the very little sleep I got the night before. Instead I watched a lot of NBA playoffs and How the Earth was Made. I probably watched like 5 episodes. Since I am a slacker, I had to take off work to do my paper. Thankfully it is done. All I need to do is make a presentation tonight, make sure my Econ final is okay, and go to my Econ class on Wednesday and I will be done with school forever.
