Weekend in Review
Aug. 29th, 2005 08:39 pmFriday night Stef and I headed out to see The Brothers Grimm. It was okay, I enjoyed it. :) Near the beginning we were joined by Saba and Joe. Afterwards we headed over to Red Robin where Lizzie joined us, as well as...*tries to remember* Jerry? Can't remember his name. `^_^ Anywho, good to converse, hadn't seen any of them in a while.
Next day was Aubrey and John's wedding. I met up with ReneƩ, Charlie, James, as well as Alex, Todd, Sam, and Brian. Good to meet some of the Nsiders. :) We headed inside for the ceremony. It was really nice. :) You could tell John was really nervous, but it was cute. :) John was stylin' in his tux, and Aubrey looked really beautiful in her dress. :)
Afterwards we headed down to the old Union Station for the reception. Hadn't been there before, it was pretty cool lookin'. Lots of glass sculptures and stuff.
It was a pretty posh spread. Really tasty food, though not much of an open bar (not that I'm gonna complain that much about free food and drink!). Had lots of good conversation with the group (same group I mentioned earlier). Later on Jessica and Travis came and joined us.
Oh, and John throws like a little girl. He threw Aubrey's garter like two feet. Advice to future grooms? Don't try and shoot it like a rubber band.
And yes, I was kinda hoping to catch it. `^_^
Anyway, we had to get outta there about midnight. We said our goodbyes as Aubrey and John took off and arranged to have breakfast the next morning.
Shockingly, I was able to get up early and most of us met down at the Factoria Mall. Ate at some bar & grill; way to fucking overpriced for what we ate. For the same amount of money I probably could've bought a meal for 2-3 people at IHOP. Ah well. Hilarious watching James berate Sam. :)
I gave Todd a ride to his car, then headed over to my mom's. Hung out and went to the casino. Got lucky on the slots and won $160. :) Woot! Most of the rest of the day was chatting with my mom and little sister. My stepdad...-_- Just...yeah. -_-
Slacked today. Pretty tired, so just hung out, didn't do much. I'll post pics when I can, though since my website's still having problems...we'll see how long that'll take.
