I say this now and forevermore: Roller Derby Kicks Ass. If you have not seen a Roller Derby in person, by all means get off your dead butt and go see one. The most fun you can have in public for $10. Loved the competition, loved the announcers, loved the overall campiness of the entire event. Naptown Rollergirls will have another bout on June 14. Be there or be square.
In response to 'Titsworth' in Maestro's blog, I got a giggle out of Plays With Sirens this week and his plea to 'vote in his pole.' I saw the typo, began to laugh, made a comment on his website then laughed harder when I realized just how rude 'vote in my pole' sounds ... :) Heh heh.
Yes, occasionally I have the sense of humor of the average 7th grade boy. So be it.
Friday night was, as expected, a no show no call from 'J' the golf guy. Seriously, I think he is mentally ill and/or completely fucked up beyond all words. I ended up out having a beer at the Rathskeller with FitnessNerd and Maestro, then came back to the house and the young'un called. He came over for awhile to shoot the shit, then I sent him on his way.
Saturday was spent mostly in bed, as I was in my happy place there. I had planned on going to the track on Saturday before the Roller Derby but realized that I would be giving one or both the short shift if I committed to both. So I finished my laundry and did other household stuff before going to the Roller Derby to celebrate FitnessNerd's bday.
We (FN, big gay mafia and friends) tailgated the Roller Derby. Seriously, you have not lived until you've tailgated a Roller Derby. It is surreal and funny and having to hide our booze from the security brought back many a memory of ... well, never mind. I'm not sure the statute of limitations has run out on that yet. :)
After the Roller Derby, I headed up to Broad Ripple to Boy Wonder's house where he and my sister were busily painting and cleaning in preparation to put it on the market. I hung out there for a few hours, shooting the shit on the front porch. Very relaxing.
Today was all about sleeping in then heading to the track to watch the cars go 'round. I did have sightings of Danica Patrick, Sarah Fisher, Tony Kaanan and EJ Vogt. Supposedly Jason Priestley was there (he is part owner of a race team) but I did not see him. There was a whole lot of people there and it was a pleasant day all around.
After the track I took myself to Bazbeaux downtown and had pizza. I read a couple of magazines and relaxed there.
I'm now home, comfortably blogging from bed.
Hope you all had a good weekend. Shout out to FitnessNerd for his bday this weekend, to Jay at Plays With Sirens for my hearty laugh of the week and to the Naptown Roller Girls for a kick ass way to spend a Saturday evening.
