Title: Summer fun, anyone?
Post by musiciannary on Jun 19^th, 2006 at 5:43pm

hehe...that rhymed!

Pat & I are proposing a get-together some time around the 4th of July holiday. Any ideas?

(please no LARPing at Skidmore Park...it'll scare the kids away and angry geese will crap all over your costumes)

(geese are evil...they hiss at you when you walk by them on your way to class...or maybe that's just at MSU)

Maybe I'm getting old, but I don't even know what the fuck LARPing is.

It stands for Live Action Role Playing. I've never done it...but I can't wait to get married so I can do other things with costume *growl*!

Detroit fireworks. Well not exactly. This is 3 differnet pics put together to make it look uber. hehe. This is gonna be the view from my new apartment come August 1st.

Went to Chitown with Patrick, Eric, Sofia, and my mom, this was millenium park. We stuffed ourselves stupid at the Taste of Chicago and then watched the fireworks.

Eric and I clowning it up. Left the red eye in cause its scarier!

Ya dang pirate! Sexy pirate i might add...

ha!

My mom, brother and i take the controls of an Arliegh Burke class destroyer and stick it to those crazy terrorists. And by terrorists i mean Americans. ...oops

This was part of the million people trying to leave grant park after the fireworks. now THAT was a throng. I was tempted to yell BOMB but something (or Patrick) told me that was illegal.

It was nuts, Patrick said it was like war of the worlds...

The year I went to Navy Peer(spelling?) for the fireworks in Chicago....I have never seen so many people in my entire life....it was like a vast sea of moving bodies and drunkeness.

Pier

You were in Chi-town today or yesterday?

"vast sea of moving bodies and drunkeness". How is that any different than any other of your weekly drunk gay orgies?

No this was 3 or 4 years ago when I was still in school Pat, hence the "the year I was in Chicago" part of the sentence :)

I was in Memorial Park in Colorado Springs watching them shoot off fireworks over the fake lake there :)

I watched fireworks in Kalamazoo yesterday with Mere. They were exceptionally lame. The fireworks in Three Rivers for the Water Carnival were much, much better.

(...wants to go to South Haven tonight to see them.)
