A Beer infused weekend

My weekend was really fun. Definatly the best one I have had for a couple of months. Friday after my dad came home I practicaly had to drag my dad out of the house to get going to Winona. On the road down we listened to the world series game. After we got to my uncles house, we bullshited fo about a half hour and then we headed down to a bar called Charlies. Now this is a bar that is not frequented by college kids. My aunt called it "divorce city". We started off with a pitcher of Leinenkugals, had some popcorn while we waited for our burgers. We watched the Cardinals win the game, and had another pitcher of beer. Now that night I think I had about 3/4 of a pitcher. Then the next day I went to the Winona state football game. We sat in one of my dads frat brothers press box. Was really nice, he ordered pizza and chicken wings. Another guy brought some beer, I had about three cans. After the winning game, my dad and uncle had to go rake leaves at a duplex that they rent to college kids. While they were doing that my aunt wanted to take me to the Winona county historical society building. We went and was pretty cool. They had a scale model of a lumber yard set on the river. After that we went to the coffee shop and had coffee and some kind of a chocolate peanut bar. We left back for my uncles house. About 2 hours later my dad and I went to go visit my grandmother in Rushford. When we got back we had deer steaks and of course more beer (I only had 1). The next day my dad and I went back to my grandmothers house to rake her yard and do some other yard work for her. She made us this huge feast for lunch. When we left from there, we went to a farm that we hunt at every year for deer hunting. Mouse is the guys nickname, his real name is Wayne. So we scale the hills and check where all the deer stands are and other good lcations to move them to. We then went to a place where Mouse had his newly made wood cabin. He really decked it out, in front he had a open pit grill made, and an outhouse made.


Going right to left their is: Dale (my uncle), Mouse the farmer, his wife Jeannie, one of our hunting buddies Dave Perkel otherwise known as just Perk, me, my dad with the wood stick in his hands, and Mouse's mother. And of course all of us in the front have a beer.

After my dad and I got home, we took my brother tom back to St. Thomas. After we dropped him off my mother decided to go to Green Mill brew pub. We find out that you can get a 23 oz. beer for a 16 oz. price. So we both order some local brew they have there. Once we get it, I take a sip and like it where as my mother doesn't like hers. So I end up drinking both and having a pretty good Guinness hamburger to go with it. And that was my weekend. I also never once had a hangover. Pretty cool eh?

I got to update this more

I only update this thing once a week. I think I can do better. Well I made it through midterms. I think I bombed my english one. We had 8 excerpts from different essay that we read. We had to name the author, date when it was published, and the title of the piece (of shit). That was on thursday, on friday I took my 20th century Europe midterm. That one I actually think I did well on, I wrote it out for like 40 minutes. Now I get to finish working the rest of the weekend, and on monday and tuesday I have off. Little while ago I wrote about a weekend I was going to take off, and asked "Where should I go?" Well I am giing down to Winona with my dad, and possibly my brothers to go see relatives. If any of you have been down there, you know that the scenery is just beautiful. It should be a good time. Well I have to go finish my laundry and then clean up my room. Later (hopefully not to far)

One more round and it's bottles to the ground, smashing up some things and do another round.

On saturday night my brother mike and my dad and I are going to go to the Farmington Eagles for some beer and burgers. Of course my brother isnt having beer since he's not 21. My mom is coming home from Boston on sunday. Thats why we are going out that night, have some fun before mom comes home, and then it's back to work. Also I found out yesterday that my english professer is canceling tuesdays class so we can study for the midterm, which is on thursday. The only class that I have left that day is German at 1:25 p.m. So I will be skipping german and taking the whole day off. I dont even have to work that day! So I can get my paper done for my Europe class and study for the english midterm. On my moms trip to Boston she took a tour of Fenway park and got me a Jason Varitek jersey (favorite Red Sox player). She also got my brothers and I ash wood baseball bats from Cooperstown. It's where the baseball hall of fame is. Ok I have to finish my english paper and then study for my german quiz. Later.

Bummer

Ok soI got the tickets and then I got to work and fin out that I have to work that friday night. So naturally im pissed, and I am looking to see if I could switch a shift with one of the other two managers. After about five minutes of trying different theories, I find out that it nothing would work out. I guess I will have to scalp them, I know a girl who used to work with me at the bookstore that is also going to the UofM. Maybe her or somebody she knows will want the tickets.
I work about average about 26-29 hrs. a week. Which I think might be a little too much while also going to school full time. That is why after midterm week I am going to take the following weekend off. I have not decided what I will do though. I might want to go either to New Ulm and tour a brewery or two. Or I might just decide that I want to stay at home and just chill out. Im sure someone that reads this can tell me if New Ulm is worth going to or not. If not where do you think I should go? wellI have to go get ready for work. Later
