This weekend was less fun than recent ones, thanks mainly to Mother's Day and family get togethers, but I at least got to relax a little, eat good food and spend less $.
On Sat my sister had a baby shower/BBQ kinda thing at her place, where my attendance was mandatory. Numerous kids running around chaotically, screaming, and throwing sand and obsessive in laws... *shudder* But on the plus side the food was good and I got to hit on my sisters friends (ALL of which either married or engaged! HA! Like I care!) so I stayed longer than expected. The jump jump saw plenty of action though...
...from my father.
On Sun we just had the immediate family plus one get together for a "seafood broil" they called it. Crab legs, Dad's crab cake recipe, and my Teriyaki Scallops wrapped in bacon. I almost made my Bourbon Baked Beans too but we had plenty of food already, so I'm making that today!
But I did hang with friends after these events. On Sat I met with the guys before going to the strip club. At one point in our drunken stupor we started tapping each others beer bottles. My friend Matt tapped my bottle so hard the neck somehow sheered straight off perfectly! He apologized and bought me another, but I'm not one to waist alcohol. So I got myself a plastic cup which I poured the beer into VERY slowly watching for any glass and drank from the cup straining it through my teeth just to be sure. I felt like a damn hero! But in retrospect, a dumb move...
Sun with the guys was very chill. I met Jason and Rob at the beach before going to Southside to hang with Ashley, who was working the bar at Ale House. The whole night I think I had 2.5 beers. The one interesting thing about the whole night was realizing just how amazingly GHETTO Jax Beach gets on Sun nights!
Lastly....
I finally got around to taking some decent pictures of my bike during a quick ride on Sat...

Well, I've got a friend visiting from NY and not one but TWO other friends with birthdays this weekend, and Fri is payday... 
Stand by for shenanigans!
