Updates from the Braincell’s adventure to MN

Dirk, Val, Seth, and Rob all came up to visit last weekend.
that is , , , and . was a loser and bailed without calling us about it….you are so in the Braincell doghouse Dink.

They arrived at roughly the same time on Friday. We had lots of fun going to the Town Hall Brewery that night, and then chilling out and bitching at eachother…like normal. Then saturday we checked out the mall after Lauren made some pancakes, and we went to famous daves. The mall was devoide of any cool looking bears hats, and while it is a freaking huge mall, it is still a mall, so we left after not very long. We then rented “40 year old virgin” which was much much funnier than I thought. Then we went to Caleb and Jenny’s for some partying.
Sunday was church and bears day. We went to church (Seth and Rob opted for a Catholic mass, and ended up not finding the place), and then we watched a little of the Program until we left for the game.

The game was weak sauce. They played the starters for all of the first quarter, and then put in the super-bad scrubs. Even the guys that might be back-ups in the playoffs didn’t hardly play.

For the record…Jerry Azhuma still sucks…whenever he is on the field bad things happen…they should draft someone in the fourth or fifth round to replace him.

We bailed at the end of the third quarter, and went to get some light food at Grandma’s bar and saloon. Everyone was tired, and didn’t want to sleep in my cramped appartment for another nights, so they took off after that, and Lauren and I hung out with Glynn and Dave watching Serenity.

Monday I finished an outline I’m jokingly calling ‘me manifesto’ which details out how I think our church could utilize technology to promote long term improvements in our community and the world at large. Lauren helped me turn it into normal-people speak so it wouldn’t freak Jeff out, it was a lot of fun working together on a project. The rest of the day we just hung around being lazy and enjoying one-anothers company. That evening Lauren went out to hang out with some girls since she had been in contact with the braincell for too long without room to breath, and I upgraded my beta site for the church to WordPress 2.0. (I’m holding off on the main site because LivePress doesn’t work with the new version). The upgrade went pretty smooth, I only have to fix the photo-album (gallery2) plugin, which should be patched in a few weeks by the original author anyway.

That is the update of the moment…I’ll leave Rob to fill in anything I forgot, and some funny stuff that happened, most of which starts with the words “You know how I know you’re gay….”
