Party all the time

Last week was just crazy. Barbara's bachelorette party was this past weekend. I spent most of last week running around finding supplies and putting together games and planning. It took alot of time, but the payoff was lots of fun. We played some games at Barbara's, including the 'toilet paper wedding dress' and 'pin the macho on the man'. Toni made a ton of Jello shooters that were consummed at the house, and Deborah decorated the house in a nice purple theme. We also decorated Barbara in a custom tshirt and a purple pimp hat with a veil that had condoms and lifesavers stuck to it. Later on we went to Beily's and played some scavenger hunt games. The one game included finding guys in the bar that looked like what you had on a deck of cards. We played this when we first got to the bar and everyone in the bar knew us after that. You had to try to take a picture with these guys too, so they really knew us. I ran into George and his wife at the bar, and I made George pose for my "Preppy Guy" that I had on the card. Then some guys with suits approached me and asked if they could help with the game, they were my "Just came from work guys". Their friends also bought my drinks all night when they saw me at the bar, score! There was another game just for Barbara, it included pinching boys bums and general goofy fun. Lots of dancing was done, and I drank quite a bit. It was lots of fun, and everyone seemed to have a good time.

Friday night I went over to Matt and Courtney's house for a chicken roast. I hadn't been to their new house, it was quite an awesome house with a pool. Almost made me want a house, but then I remembered all the work that goes into a house and I'm quite fine with paying condo fees to have all that extra work done. Also I'd never seen brown and marbled granite, it was so sharp as a kitchen countertop. We played Scene It Squabble later and again the girls won. It makes me question whether the game goes easier on the girls, or just being the girls we are, we have a plethora of knowledge from both sexes. It's interesting to ponder. I think it's just that the girls are better at paying attention than the boys, alot of the time they didn't even know if it was their turn or not.

Sunday I was pooped. I slept in, and sluggishly left Barbara's house at noon. I cleaned my kitchen, went in the hot tub and then Darrell came over and we sat on the couch and watched movies and gorged ourselves on BK. I kinda had a headache all day sunday so it was the perfect day.

This week shouldn't be as busy. Darrell's bday is on thursday, and there's a condo meeting tonight. I sure hope the condo meeting doesn't take long. I know exactly what will happen though. They're in the middle of renovating the main lobby, and the colour scheme they chose is a little dark. It's a very contemporary style but it's pretty dark. But everyone in the building is complaining about it and they aren't even close to being done. At first it was a little scary, dark brown wallpaper and they stained all the wood mahogany. But now that the new tile has gone in, it's really bright and white marbled patterned and they added some more lights, it looks nice. But I'm pretty sure this whole meeting will be why they are worried about the lobby and since most of the people who go to the meeting are really old, I'm sure they are going to hate it all and I'm going to have to hear about it.
