I guess first I'll start off with the insane BBQ we had here (at work) on Friday. We had so much food! Angelo cooked a pork loin, corn and potatoes with onions, we had hotdogs, brats, hamburgers, Stacie's potato salad, macaroni salad (Scott's own of course), pop, chips, Jenette's banana pudding... plus Angelo brought every condiment possible. Man, there was soooo much food!
Saturday we cleaned the house... it really needed it, badly. But in the late afternoon we headed to Joe and April's for a BBQ and the Wings game. The Wings slaughtered the Penguins and we went outside for a bonfire. We had a pretty good fire going but it started getting late. Besides what we were drinking, Steve had some Molson in the fridge that was skunky so he put 2 unopened bottles of it in the fire. It's funny when you put a beer in the fire because it boils then shoots out of the top. The fire had started to die down and it was probably close to 3:00 am when Joe "found the couch" and Steve, April and I were still around the fire which was pretty much just coals by then. The bottles were still there and we had pretty much forgotten about them. Then, all of a sudden BOOM! I hadn't a clue what had just happened but I knew there was stuff from the fire on my face. My drunk ass says "ahhh! my face!" but just kept sitting there. I guess I was still trying to figure out how that happened and trying to assess the damage. After a few seconds, I guess I figured "well those two got up, maybe I should too!" Steve was brushing hot coals off of April who's pants caught the brunt of it and as I found out later, she had pulled her pants down and was standing there in her undies! lol I went into the house but on my way, I couldn't help but joke "STOP DROP AND ROLL!" lol
Once I got in the house, I headed straight for the sink. My face and glasses were completely covered in ash, soot and charcoal. Once I got most of it off my face, I showed Joe my glasses and by this time he was just trying to figure out what the hell happened (he had fallen alseep on the couch). Then April and Steve came in. Aparently they had taken time to put the fire out. We were all pretty much plastered (obviously) and found our way to the couch to laugh at ourselves. I think it was close to 4:00 when we finally left. What a fun night that was! As it turns out the damage was this: I have several small burns on my face and neck as well as on the frame of my glasses. Steve has small cuts all over his face. I guess the bottle blew toward him. April has a fat lip because it was burned, her sweat pants are toast, she lost a few gobs of hair in the shower (must have been burned) and one of thier chairs was burnt up.
So, Sunday we just hung out most of the day. We laid out in the sun and went to the hardware store then got ice cream. I took a nap in the back yard then one of the neighborhood teens came by to ask us if we wanted to play roller hockey. We played for a few hours then came home and watched a movie. We saw The Butterfly Effect. It was really good!!
Monday, Memorial Day we just hung out around the house all day. We did some yard work, laid in the sun and had lunch outside. As I was doing laundry I heard the ice cream truck going by and Captain yelled out eh window. The ice cream truck stopped. It was soooo funny!! The driver probably thought it was a retarded kid since what he yelled wasn't a word just one of what we call his "retard noises." I laughed so hard. Later on I went for a walk with him then watched the Wings game.
It was a pretty good weekend. Definitely a funny one. Steve and I have never had a long weekend at home before. It's nice to be able to spend time together. I just never get tired of him.
