*Insert standard "I havn't posted anything in a while" sentence*

Well since thats out of the way, I can also say I've tryed to avoid typing my daily grind or overly personal things and use this more as rant space, you know avoid doing "Went to sk00l, went to w0rk, talked to my boss about wages, punched a guy in the face, etc..." or I've liked being a little bitchy sometimes :-). But this weekend was pretty wild so I figure I'll share it with y'all. Oh don't worry I'll rant again very soon I promise, in my mind I want to do a web browser comparison/review if any of you know my internet habits, I've been swtiching through a few of them recently. But I thought I'd get this "crazy" weekend stuff out of the way. Now I'm sorry I mentioned that upcoming browser rant now, your prolly so excited about that your not even gonna bother reading the rest now.

Friday
-----------
But anyway my girlfriend Catherine invited me to join her for a party on Friday with her friends at one of their houses, some of these other attendies I knew, others I was a little new to. This was to be a sleepover theme party wit h the promise of "tenting", the theme was "Pre-Christian Britain" I did some research but didn't really find anything I could bring to reference that time period, but it didn't matter no one really followed the theme past the first 5 - 10 mins or so anyway. But there were a lot of shenanigans mostly just talking and messin around, and tiny fights which ended in Mary biting someone.

Then we held a seance since some of them are/know some wickand things, it was kinda nifty, and kinda creepy cause it made it seem like this person one of us knew was going to die in a place crash that were on. But other than that kinda nifty. Then we started a little fire, and then everyone went nuts and started "scrumping". (scrumping = non sexual touching. I learned many new words this weekend) So yeah most of them formed a large scrumping pile (bodies everywhere), me and Catherine just kinda relaxed by the fire for "happy cuddly fire time", and tryed to ignore the pile of scrumping flesh not more than a few feet away.(Not quite as disgusting as it sounds, but wierd none the less lol)

Soon after that it was time for everyone to retire to the tent...since someone decided "it would be any fun if were all in more than one tent" 11 of us crammed into an inadequetly sized tent. After much time was spent deciding how to arrange everyone, everyone was less than an inch apart and in most cases in contact with someone. I was in the corner curled into a little ball in and endless struggle to find a place where my arms could stay comfortable and not fall asleep, cause me pain, or bother someone. It kept getting quiet and then talking for 15mins then quiet, then more talking...it went like that for 2 hours lol. Well after that point i lost conscienceness.

Saturday
-----------
I woke up 2 hours later, suprisingly rested, and in a lot of pain, thx to my leg in an aweful position. Since it seemed everyone else was asleep I just stayed there, until I couln't take it anymore and sat up, figure I woke up Catherine, she sat up also, we stayed there till we realized how aweful the tent smelled and escaped. Some other people were awake already so we all just talked and contemplated on how long we'd let everyone else sleep.

This was when a little revelation was made that we had some inappropriate goings on in the tent last night. Seems 2 people who had only just met at this party had been at the very least making out, while others heard panting and an "Oh My God" a little too much touching going on, but yeah kinda creepy considering how close we all were together. Some people started to wake up and leave, the remaining people learned a little too much about "baking" (baking = a tougne invading the ear). Thankfully myself and Catherine were spared, as everyone else had pretty much been bake-raped(forced unwanted baking). Soon after I got the call, and had to pack up and leave, dropped Catherine at her homestead, and went home to take a much needed shower.

Got online, talked to people, and then a plan slowly began to form. It started when Matt asked if I wanted to hang out, talked to ferro, figure get him in on hanging out, then it became what to do, and then where to go.What resulted is What we lovingly call Mini-Con Summer Tour 2K3, which was held in Ferro's Grandma's Garage, 3 big TVs, every game console except the foul X-Box, we even had a Super Nintendo! Then it expanded to Jim being involved, Ferro's friend Adam, Jason, even the fabled Buko joined in. It was a fabulous success, but next time it will be more official with passes and conbooks (ooh), and more organized catering :-). I think of this first Mini-Con as a Beta test, the next version will be even better, since we will plan it more than 3 hours before we started. Got home at like 1am and decided Ishould sleep since i have to get up at 6am for work. (Note: remember I only had 2 hours of sleep the night before.)

Sunday
-----------
Got up at 6, got to work at 7, came home at noon. Cleaned my room because we were having a party and bunches of relatives were coming over. People arrived, I ate too much food, played videogames with cousin. The it was time for me to go, as Catherine was having a small shindig this afternoon with much the same group as was at the party on Friday. So i said my goodbyes to my family of course they all have to ask "Where you going?" not trying to make a big deal out of it, I said "Just going to a party at a friends house." Eventually one person said very loud "Here's going to see his girlfriend." Which of course brought "Aww he's blushing" so I cut my losses forgot the rest of the goodbyes, and just left, I don't need that.

Got there, we piled into Catherine's house, and I was bombarded by good food, of course I couldn't actually eat it as I had filled up at my house earlier. The party was too watch some WW2 movies and watch the 2nd part of that CBS Hitler movie, well we ended up not doing any of that lol. We played a board game for a while, but as a group we were too rowdy to play that for too long. Then we played a variation of Hide & Seek for a little while.A few of us went back inside, while the rest of them stayed outside to do whatever it is they were doing lol. While inside we put on the movie "10 Things I Hate About You" and in the words of Catherine we had "Happy cuddly movie time". And that movie was entertaining, learned it was a modern retelling of "Taming of the Shrew", then watched "Silence of the Lambs" for "scary cuddly movie time". Sadly I had to leave before the end of that movie, as I had work at 7am again, and still needed more sleep. So I said my goodbyes, drove home and went to sleep. And thus the weekend did end, and I was fulfilled, for it was a very good weekend, a weekend that will be hard to top for a while.

And that is a very long post, if you got this far Congrats, writing this spanned 2 days. Now I'll have to check and see if this is the longest post I ever made. And hopefully that web browser rant won't be too long in coming.
