Halloween 2011 - Part 2

We wrapped up Saturday by hanging out at home for most of the night.  Steven and Grant went to see Thrice at the Granada, and we watched Netflix!  Yay for getting old and boring!  After they were finished at the show, Eric brought them home along with a friend of Stevens, and then we all headed back out to walk around Mass Street to ogle the costumes.  

Sunday, once we had eaten some breakfast, Eric told everyone to get ready for some golf!  We spent the afternoon at the driving range near Eudora, and then said our goodbyes so Eric and I could head to Overland Park for our Dave Ramsey class.  

It's lucky Steven has a key to our apartment!  Yesterday, he found a present for his dad - but Eric and I were already on our way to Overland Park when he realized that he had left it in our house.

Look at those golfing boys!

And I golfed too!

Day 299: Adult Swim and Putting

After I got out of school today I volunteered at a disability resources community expo, and then had a dress rehearsal for the Lawrence Schools Foundation Follies at Liberty Hall.  This meant that after a full day at school I volunteered from 4-6, and had the rehearsal at 8:15.  I didn't want to waste the gas on going home, just to have to come back to Lawrence, so I decided to walk around on Mass Street.  There was some music coming from 9th street, and when I went to explore what was going on I was greeted with a giant "Carl" from Aqua Teen Hunger Force!

It turns out there was an Adult Swim Block Party - live music, free t-shirts, free 5-hour energy, free claw and plinko games, and sponsor people handing out even more free stuff.  The party was rained out - so I got some 3 Spoons Frozen Yogurt and watched other acts rehearse at Liberty Hall until it was my groups turn.

When Eric got home from class he rushed back out to his car for a "surprise", and came back inside with his dad's golf clubs.  We rummaged through the bag and each got a putter, got two cups from the cabinets, and dumped out a whole bag of golf balls.  We spent the next hour putting at each other (we each had a cup near us for the other person to putt into).  I perfected a move that I call "The Reload" where I hit the door frame and the ball bounces back to me to try again!

I got an Aqua Teen Hunger Force t-shirt for Eric, two Squidbillies drink koozies, a prize ribbon, and a water bottle.  Nothing too exciting, but it was all free!

Addy is initially not terribly amused that we are golfing - she gets much more interested when the balls start rolling around the house!

 You putt balls at me?  Yay, balls!


I made one into the green cup!  And Eric landed tons of shots!
