Spring Break 2003
Well, I had a pretty damn good Spring Break this year as some of you very well know.

I didn't get home until Saturday morning because I had an assignment due Friday in my CS class.  The prof also gave us an assignment due Monday; read here for an explanation and a lab project due Thursday.

Anyway, I got home Saturday morning and slept a good part of the day.  Went over to
William's place after that and got to see Jason's Mustang transmission.  Man that fucker was absolultely trashed... he got two other ones from a guy and was looking into a rebuild kit to make one good trans out of the three he now has.  With three he shouldn't have any problems getting one complete one out of it.  After that we went over for a party and did a "wee little bit" pf drinking.

Got off to one hell of a start that night... don't really remember much of it.  We started drinking around 7pm and after that I just have a blurry bunch of bits and pieces for a memory.  I don't remember going home, but I do remember falling off my couch, having dad help me crawl up the stairs, and untie my boots.  I remember drinking my pint of Jack, and I was told that I chugged about half a fifth of something or other (Tequila I think) but I don't remember that.  I'm suprised I didn't feel shitty the next morning, but I woke up with only the slightest of headaches so I guess I'm lucky.

Spent a lot of time just bumming with William and
Andy for the week, since he was living over at William's place for a while.  I didn't see much of Matthew, Bryan, Spinner, and many more of the people I expected to.  Most of them were busy with school and work... damn incongruent schedules.  Ran down to Lafayette with Andy on Wednesday and blew some money on cards at The Game Preserve.  They actually have Arabian Nights boosters there, and Legends ($150 and $44 respectively) but they were a bit too rich for my blood.  I picked up a 15 card Revised booster for 15 bucks... figures that I only pulled 7 bucks worth of cards from it.  I did pick up a lot of good shit I needed for decks though.

Speaking of odd/bad luck, guess who I ran into during the middle of the week...  Bill "come on" White.  I was parked in 5th street conversing with Nathan, who was parked in the opposite lane when out of the blue there was this guy up in my face talking shit.  It actually took me a minute to figure out who it was; I'd never talked to the guy and had only been close to him
once last summer and had my glasses off at the time.  Anyway... he was trying to get me out of the car to fight him in the street.  I didn't oblige him though, so he tried to punch me through my open car window when Nathan left.  When I saw it coming I took off with him following close, so I threw her in reverse and back up.  When he jumped out of the way I got the fuck out of there in a hurry.  The last thing I need is an entanglement with a drunken, dope addict, abusive, no future bum like that.  Anyway, that was definetly the oddest event of the week.  I suggest the rest of you who were involved in that incident last summer watch yourselves and be careful... man, we just can't seem to get away from this shit no matter how we try.  Just the nature of the beast I guess... we must need bigger shovels.

I went up to Michigan with
Nathan on Friday to pick up a transmission for my Beretta from Geoff (aka Heavywoody), a guy I know from BerettaNet.  We left around 620am and got back right after 5pm... the trip actually would have been shorter, but we spent quite a bit of time bullshitting with Geoff while we were up there.  The trip was actually very easy and didn't take quite as long as I had expected.  Went over to Mike's place later that night and played some one on one with him before the rest of the guys (William, Andy, Bloomer, and Jake the punk) showed up.  We played a few multiplayer games, but didn't really stay up all that late.  Spinner showed up for the last game, and we called it a night around midnight... pretty early for us.  Did a lot of trading and buying from Andy that night, and a couple other days too.

Saturday was a good day; spent some of it packing then partied that night... didn't drink at all though cause I had to drive home the next morning.  The evening was an interesting one, Andy got his ass kicked by Jose.  There were also a few other good moments, including when Spinner got hit by William and dropped to the floor in pain.   Went home fairly early that night as I stated before, then drove home on Sunday which was an adventure in itself.

You can read about the trip home here.

This is just a summary... I know more things happened but I can't recall them.

Pictures from break are below.
I swear he's adopted.
When I said Saturday was blurry, I wasn't kidding.  I have no recollection of this.
