Friday afternoon I had beers and chicken wings with my boy DizkoDan.  The wing factory makes some tasty chicken wings.  Afterwards I believe, if I recall correctly, we went to a new vegetarian Indian restaurant for dinner.  It never ceases to surprise me just how long I refused to eat Indian food based on the assumption that “anything Indian” had curry in it, I hate curry, and just how wrong I was. 

Saturday, I headed over to DizkoDan’s house around 8 am, a lot later than I had anticipated due to my inability to fall asleep the night before.  I arrived at DizkoDan’s house and after a few minutes we went to Home Depot to get about 25 bags of mulch, his yard needed the addition of new mulch in some spots.  While pulling weeds from the surroundings of his peach tree I mentioned that perhaps he ought to get some weedblock and lay it down around the tree.  He agreed but he said he was just “too lazy” to do it and if he were going to go through the trouble of it, he might as well built the retaining wall he had been meaning to built since last year.  I believe my answer went something like “let’s go, we aint got nothing to do”.  Punque, DizkoDan’s wife, wanted to come along to help pick out the stone, so we all got in their SUV and drove to the nursery and then back to Home Depot to check out pricing and availability of stone.  Punque settle for something that matched what the slate she already had in her stair that leads from her house to her garage. 

The stone for the retaining wall was purchased at the nursery by their house.  There were two memorable things at the nursery a) a patio statue of a pig that appeared to be inviting people to poke him in the butt b) the look and reaction from the people in the nursery when we told them we were going to upload the stones in just one trip, by hand, into a 2008 pathfinder.  Punque was nice enough to help load the stones into the vehicle, but she had lots of errands to run as soon as we made it home.  Punque, once again demonstrated her awesomness when she went to get us food before running around and getting her errands done. 

Roughly 6 hours and some beers later the retaining wall, mulching and weedblock was completed.  Punque took pictures and she was content with the results.   

DizkoDan’s neighbors came over for dinner, margaritas were had, I ended up drizunk.  PS: I shouldn’t drink that much tequila in one sitting, or ever for that matter.

Sunday, we went to get breakfast and then to the outlet mall.  I wanted to go to the outlet mall in Leesburg to get some shorts but nothing was the right price for the ridiculous designs they had.  We ended up getting shoes instead, tmt man.  Later on that Sunday DizkoDan and I went for a short but rather enjoyable bike ride, roughly about 8 miles.  After the bike ride we headed out to Nissan Pavillion to see Motley Crue.  I had high expectations and had it not been for the shennanigans that were executed prior to the concert I would’ve been even more dissapointed.  PS: Dont leave an empty cooler outside your car, you might find massive amounts of empty beer and vodka bottles when you get back to it.  OH yeah Vince Neil is a tool. 

This week is blah, but I am starting to get too bored too quickly.  Normal people do not get this bored as easily, I might need psychological help. 

I went jogging last night because I was bored, 7 miles and nearly 1:30hr later I was back at home, still bored but this time I was armed with a tuna sandwhich and wonton soup.  I couldnt sleep until 2pm and I was up by 5am….fun times.
