Mini Recap

Boom! What up, definitely fell off for a little bit but found some time to drop a line tonight. Sooo much stuff has happened, wondering where I should even attempt to begin....

I'm still rocking out at the bachelor pad in Warren, cohesion is at an all time high. We've continued to pick up more friends in our crew and things are similar to what is was like in college haha. It's crazy.....you lose touch with some of your old buddies yet find others to take their place and sub in. None the less, we kill it no matter where we go. Guys and girls combined, the personalities of the group take over and like clockwork we breathe life into every event we partake in. It's ridiculous.

This whole last year has been amazing. I've been fortunate to do so many trips whenever, wherever. We hit Boyne in December for a ski trip and ugly sweater party at the bars, went to Cancun for "vacation" (haha reeeeediculous), hit up St. Joe for guys weekend at Simon's place (again maybe even more reeeediculous?), went out to visit Puz in Denver with Jeremy, went camping and took the boat up to Elk Lake State Park and did the chain of lakes to Torch Lake with my bro's, my gf Lauren, Lara and her baby, towed the boat over to Lake St. Clair for raft off with my dad and a bunch of friends, and have had the boat available to take out whenever I wanted for boating/fishing. Guess I can't complain about that part of my life. Oh yea, also had Tracey down for his 21st bday. We had to fly him in from Oklahoma or wherever the hell his friends sister lived at where he was staying. She was being a bitch so he peaced out didn't drive home with her. Haha classic, there was more to this story but he did the right thing. We had a blast. I can't believe I can actually legally go to the bar with both of my brothers now.....kinda weird but also very cool. I had let Tracey borrow a belt of mine and a shirt, of which by the time the night was over, the belt was broken and puke was all over my shirt and couch......absolutely disgusting. Oh well, he claims he had a great birthday so mission accomplished. Dad also just got him a new car so now he has something decent to drive. He had been outta commission after totaling the other one, so hopefully he takes better care of it this time.

MBA has been on my mind.....well a lot of things have been on my mind. I am living through one of the worst depressions of our times. Unemployment I believe is the highest in Michigan and NOBODY is hiring for shit. I'm been working my ass off trying to network, find leads, but it has been slower than 696 on the way to work in the morning(pretty bad). How does one get ahead right now??? My company continues to lose people because they aren't taking care of what they have currently. I mean come on, we haven't had a raise in 3 years!!! WTF is that?!!!!! Negativity breeds among us, and everyday I pray for a proper exit from my company that could give me fresh start elsewhere. Tonight I actually started down that path and researched MBA's from MSU and UofM(yea i know...). Looks like I may have to get down to studying for the GMAT if I'm gonna get in. The hardest part is finding motivation to open the books and focus.....it's so easy to put it off, but like I said, the wheels are spinning at work and I continue to go nowhere.

I also continue to feel bad for Tian. I wish the kid could get a job and get his life going. He just turned 26 years old, and yet he still hasn't had a full time job with benefits yet. He's back to working at Whitecaps to make some money, and has been living at the old house. I'm sure he hates it. You want to move forward with your life, not reverse. I continue to try and give him positive reinforcement and motivate him but I know he's struggling......hang in there man.

Anyways, not quite sure what I'm gonna do this weekend yet. I had wanted to go white water rafting in West Virginia but now I might end up going up north to visit since nobody wanted to come with me.

I'm gonna try and make G log more of a priority from now on. There's to much stuff going on that needs to be documented on a more regular basis.

New House

Throwin a few thoughts down at lunch while I've got a chance. It's been about a month now that I moved out of my old house on Cass Lake to the new crib in Warren. Things couldn't be better. New roommates are super cool and there's no stress or tension the way there used to be at the old house. All I can say is i'm just sorry I didn't move out sooner...........

I committed to a ski weekend up in boyne at the end of January, and i'm pretty pumped. We've got over 30 people in 3 different condos, should def be a good time! I don't have ski's anymore because N^2 sold them all for extra cash last year, so I'll have to demo a pair. Maybe it's time to pull out the tricks Warren Miller style haha? I'm looking forward to writing about how somebody passed out in the bathroom like N^2 a couple years ago.........that story still cracks me up!

Work has been tough lately. I'm bored out of my mind doing the same shit over and over. Morale is also super low since our American president got fired over night. He was with the company for 20 years and apparently was expendable. Just goes to show that you need a job more than the job needs you......I definetely need a change. The market is shit though and everybody is struggling. I don't feel like I have any chance of getting promoted at this company. It's not the Japanese way and I don't feel appreciated. I'm happy to have a job, but you're spose to be happy doing your job too right?

Dropped another G so that I could continue to enjoy the so called "BMW Experience". I've never seen so many things go wrong on a luxury vehicle. By paying the extra money for this thing, isn't it supposed to last longer? Not the case...........seems like every couple months i'm paying to fix something else. If it wasn't almost paid off I'd have something new by now. The BMW Experience continues.....

Lastly, I got in touch with Sagi, my trainer that lives in Dallas. I've been working with him for about 4 months now and things are looking good. I put on about 4 pounds over the last month with the new plan, now now I have to eat 4,100 cal/day. You think that's not so bad, I'll send you the plan and you can eat like that the same food, the same calories, EVERY day. It takes dedication. By following this type of eating plan and training I have a new respect for bodybuilders. True the majority of them use steroids/HGH to be able to recover quicker and build muscle faster, but the dedication to the sport and huge amounts of food you must eat is ridiculous......even something that you used to take for granted say a cup of milk now tastes amazing when you decide to eat a few things that you shouldn't..........the bar falls into one of those "shouldnt's" as well haha but you need that every once in awhile.

That's it for now, might be going to the MSU/PSU game in East Lansing this weekend, but that all depends on Aug. Will the kid come through? Rest assured I'll let you know...

MSU Vs UofM Recap

Fellas and G-log followers, once again I've been slacking on my entries. A lot of shit has happened, and though much has been verbally communicated, years later I will appreciate having written this down.

MSU vs UofM tailgate.......another win for the good guys. I made my appearance to N^2's tailgate with a case of miller light, skull beer bong, and box of franzia. I figure if you're gonna do it up, do it up right. N^2 had been looking to switch up his lifestyle down in Amarillo TX from the usual pizza dinner, pack of smokes, and mug beers that he had know, so well in months past. I sent him a workout plan and gave him ideas on how to low carb and eat more healthy. It's one thing to point somebody in the right direction but man N^2 looked like a different person. His face was half the size that I remember and he was rocking a pair of "Jared" jeans....haha. Now I maintained my composure at this tailgate while watching everyone else get annihilated. One of the kids even face planted into the grass after playing "Louisville Chugger". It was hilarious!

Everything in moderation though, the game had finally started and I left the tailgate to go meet up with my brother who was at his usual Burgerama hangout. The line was long as fuck though and seeing as how I wasn't drunk, I was getting super annoyed at the people that were cutting and talking shit. I waited for awhile but finally bounced to grab a bite and met up with my co-worker Jimmy who was prowling the area looking for some strange. He was rolling with a co-ed crew that was pretty funny so we hit it off right away. They were looking to hit a bar so we ended up at the Post. I walk up to the bar and order not really paying attention when it suddenly dawns on me that i'm ordering from this chick that I hooked up with on my lake 2 summers ago! She looks kind of confused and I don't say anything to her, but handle my order like I have hundreds of times before. I laugh to myself and tell my buddy the story of this chick....he laughs too then we chill for a little bit before peacing out to rest up for the night.

Now I knew it was going to be busy later b/c this is a huge weekend for MSU, but what I saw when we made it back out around 8pm was riiiiidiculous. Every line was like 100 people deep. We attempted to get into PT's but the line was dude ranch and it was def not moving anytime soon.....quick decision, we head across the street towards the liquor store and make a purchase. Somehow our crew cut a bunch of people who were in line at the Post and we finished up our drink mixes just in time to get in. Initially I was pissed b/c we had just been there earlier and we were back again, but soon I changed my mind. We go to get some drinks and ol girl is pulling a double. She again is my bartender and this time says to me "are you Torri?" I smile and say "yea we had a little thing back in the day". She kind of laughs to, hooks us up with the drinks and then I walk away....

Time to get my swag on haha. I walk down to the other side of the bar and see this brunette chick sitting by herself at a table. I lean over and talk to her for a few minutes. She's 28, attractive and an alumn.....ok cool. A bunch of guys come back to sit with her, so I conveniently peace out only to get eaten up by a group of 7 blonde hair chicks. One of the chicks was amazing and I was networking my way to her through the other girls when my buddy Jimmy starts talking to her. I let him have a shot at this chick while I talk with the other girls only to end up with a stalker.......Jimmy didn't get anywhere and now I had the wrong girl interested in me. That's what u get sometimes from winging your boy. Quick decision, I tell the girls that I'll be right back and go to the other side of the bar to distance myself from this chick. As I get over there the 28yr old decides that she's leaving and comes over to me. "Soooo i'm coming back into town for Homecoming with my girls and i'm planning on calling you".......I laugh and say oh yea cuz you don't have my number and what's your status? She says, "Yea I have a boyfriend for 5 years" then looks at me and says "whats your number".....lol lol! I give it to her and she says seeya in a couple weeks.........i'm lmao by now........gotta love these shady ass chicks from MSU....nothing has changed. One down....

By this time its about midnight and the crew i'm with is talking about going to a different bar so I go up to close my tab. Bartender goes, "so do you ever get up here at all?" I say not really anymore, but on occasion. She closes me out then hands me a folded piece of paper and says, "If you haven't had a taste already......" I start laughing......of course I have, I tore her ass up! Two down....

I go back to my group who points out the 500 person line outside and the fact that its raining. Change of plans, we're staying........there's no way i'm standing in line.

Alright I regroup, and then walk back over to the other side of the bar where I run into two smoking hot chicks that I start talking with. Both are outstanding and are the complete opposite of the other one. Brunette and blonde......one of my fantasies haha. I'm hollering at both of them when some dude comes up to me and I find out that he is the BF of the brunette haired chick. He's cool though and tells me that I am exactly the blonde girl's type.......his gf confirms this. Pretty soon the blonde haired chick(who I still have no idea what her name is) is all over me and we are tearing up the dance floor. She had that high school track body, toned, hot, and a great ass that I was getting to know quite well haha! The other group of 7 blonde haired girls was still at the bar and was now talking shit about the girl I was with. They kept trying to pull me away from her every chance they could get which was annoying, because this chick was dope and things were going well. I kept ignoring them......

Finally, the hot chick i'm with says, "I want you to meet my sister and my friends"........now any guy knows that the next day none of that shit will matter, but I roll with it anyways. Whoahhhhhh, her sister is smoking hot as well and is actually my age. New target? Negative sir, this chick's BF was there and is 2 inches taller than me and probably 30lbs more ripped.....no need to get myself into that situation haha. By this time i'm being that guy and i'm making out with this chick at the bar..........huge pet peeve of mine. I hate seeing that shit let alone partaking in it. My bad.

"Let's get out of here I say"........
"Ok, let's go back to my house"
"Where do you live"
"The Alpha Phi house".....

Yahtzee!!!!!!!!! Pretty soon i'm upstairs where I walk in on a familiar sight.....tiny ass room, bunkbeds, etc etc.....things are getting very interesting on the lower bunk soon after but there was very little room to move. Here's where things get interesting.......

I get up to start taking off my clothes and she gets up as well thinking she's going to take off what little she is wearing too.....hahahaha. Instead she walks out the door into the hall. Nothing is said and nothing is weird, so i'm thinking she's just going to use the bathroom.....standard op no big deal.

Now picture me laying in this tiny bunk bed in my boxers waiting for this chick to get back so I can do work.......5 minutes goes by........7......8...suddenly i'm like what the fuck happened to this girl? I can't be that random guy that wakes up in a sorority house the next day.....no way! So I put my clothes back on and walk into the hallway. I don't hear anything and the bathroom is right there but nothing either......what the fuck? I wasn't about to be a stalker and go looking for this chick so I walked out and got in my car. Now i'm laughing but i'm also pissed. It's like 4 in the morning and i'm to tired to drive. Where can I go? Suddenly it dawn's on me. I can hit up Tian's place in Okemos for a piece of bed.....

I rock the BMW experience over to Okemos where I quitely walk in the front door and see one of his roommates wake up who was sleeping in a chairm and his gf was passed out on the couch. I tap on Tian's door and he comes out....."WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE AND WHY ARE YOU WAKING EVERYBODY UP?!" I'm like whoah man chill out, you are the one yelling, I just need a piece of bed. My brother is not having it and before I know if, his roommate has pulled his gf off the couch and they go to his room to pass back out. My brother is pissed, but I am drunk and lay down on the couch to pass out.

BEEP!.........30 second pause.......BEEP!.........you've gotta be fucking kidding me. These poor ass kids can't scrap together five cents to put a new battery in their smoke detector????? The noise was resonating through the entire house too.....BEEEEEP! Goddam my light sleeping tendencies......and how am I not with a chick right now after all the opportunity that was thrown at me today? Whatever it will make for a funny story to tell the guys about tomorrow....

I finally pass out for a couple hrs only to wake up at 8am to the fucking smoke detector. I can't fall back asleep. Alright i'm outta here. I drove all the way back to my Cass Lake house at the time and pass out. What a ridiculous weekend............I can finally clock out....To this day we still don't know what happened to the Alpha Phi chick....

Real Big

So I'm writing this to let everybody know I'm worried about Torri. The kid has been obsessing over his physique lately... He spends all this money on workouts and products that promise results. I found a bottle of this in his room the other day:

http://www.evitamins.com/product.asp?pid=2731

Everybody knows this is a gateway drug to hardcore steroids. I'm scared the kid is taking a step in the wrong direction and going the unnatural route. Everybody please discuss this with Torri, voice your concerns and tell him not to mess his life up. He might end up like this:

Guys Weekend - Saugatuck

Getting together for guys weekend isn't as easy as it used to be. Jobs, gf's, family, living in different states, etc has made it hard to get the core crew together and act a fool. The applications of "Top Jaw" ropes are hardly seen these days, but we did manage to scrap together the few remaining guys in the area to head over to G-rap for the weekend. Begin guys weekend.....

True to his nature, Aug the Dog was late getting to my brother's house in Okemos so we could head to Jeremy's and get the show on the road. We had shit to do, prep for our fishing charter, make beer, hit up the bar, kick the strange out the next morning haha, and this guy starts us out with a BF-ing.... I don't remember what his excuse was, but I think we all know that it wasn't because he was pushing out another set at the gym or finishing up a run(all in good fun Aug)...

Trying to pack golf clubs, gym bags, baskets of clothes, and two bone crushers(Aug and Tian) including myself into the same car should have certified me as a packaging specialist. We were pretty cramped, good thing the trip was only a little over an hour.

We got to J's house only to find the front door locked so we broke in through the back and acted like we owned the place. Jeremy finally showed up with perma-cig(the wife) and soon the guys were headed to the bar to get some grub. We hit this place called Scorekeepers up and it was off the chain. There was indoor bball hoops so immediately the betting begins. I had just won a Rip Hamilton dog chain(I wear it as a conversation piece) from the Arts Beats N Eat's festival for shooting hoops, so I was feeling pretty confident. Now i'm still not sure how this happened, but a couple bets later I was paying for Aug's dinner as well as a couple of his drinks. FML........lost to Aug, the biggest disrepect of the night. So we finish up and decide to check out the outside in the back. Yahtzee! This place had hight stakes sand volleyball courts up and before I knew it, I was watching Aug and Tian sweaty as fuck from minor physical activity as we engaged in several vball games. During the game we had every opportunity to hop the fence and skip out on the bill, but when I proposed this idea to Jeremy he said, "I've already been to jail, i'm not goin back"......lol lol. Kid has been there more than once but that's besides the point...

It was getting late and we still had to pick up our bro's, Tracey and Zachary because we were all going fishing the next morning. It was an urban sprawl that night with people sleeping everywhere and from what I hear Jeremy even got laid that night haha. We were running late so J bought $30 worth of food/drink from the gas station and Aug handled Mcdonald's(like he has so many times before) for us. Finally we get down to the charter boat where headed out to fish in front of the mouth of this river. Now I was cutting glass, but the fact that we started hooking salmon left and right had warmed us up! We pulled names out of a hat to see who got to reel in the fish in what order. Jeremy, Tian, Tracey, Myself, Zachary, and Aug was last. We start putting fish in the cooler right and left. Coho's and Kings were nailing the Jplugs we were using. We've got two on at a time and Aug and Tracey are handling their business. Aug had been fighting this fish for awhile when Tracey got handed a pole and started reeling. Pretty soon we had Tracey's fish in the boat and were still waiting on Aug's which we finally got in. Begin the quote of the trip, "twice the size and half the time", Aug just got served haha! Everybody out there was catching fish and by the time we got in, we had boated 12 total. We were pretty satisfied. We got a bunch of pictures, of which i'm still waiting to get from Aug because he's lazy as fuck and won't send them out, and then took our freshly cleaned fish back to J's place for a meal. Total fillet weight was 64 pounds!

Now I would like to tell about the bar night we had, but in the interest of my time, i'm gonna cut this entry short. Let me summarize by saying that Jeremy got lazy eyed, and held up a soccer mom mini van full of girls(of which, only 1 was cute) to give them my number. My phone starts ringing only to find out what he had done. I'll let you guess what happened next, but I'll lead in saying that I was not interested.......hahahaha

CP out!

Hampton's Trip!

In trying to make up for lost time, here goes the Hampton's trip......

So RD gives me a ring and lets me know that he's got a crew of people renting a house out in the Hamptons for the weekend and that yours truly needs to make an appearance. Quick decision, yup i'm in. Apparently the house was off the chain and there would be about 15 people guy/girl combo there for the weekend and then Ryan's GF(wait what did you just say, yup he def lost the bet) had a joint house with 7 other girls out there. Being the opportunist that I am, I hooked up with NWA and booked the flight.

True to his word Ryan was right and I was definitely delayed. By the time I got to the train station in New York, I had BF'd(try living my life) Ryan and his girl out of taking the first train so they could wait for me to get there. Hey it happens. So this is the first time that I get to meet his GF. Ryan has always been a good wing and able to hold his own, but when he actually decides to date a chick, I have always wanted to throw the trump card down and call him aside for an emergency meeting. The guy loves a plain jane headcase and wonders why things always go south. No matter, that's where I come in......the voice of reason. Introductions aside, I've made my mental decision about how I feel about this girl and I sense that she's trying to size me up as well to see if I am a threat to Ryan and her. Of course I am, but for the time being, it's all good.

We get going on the train and it's not until I realize that it's about a 2 hour ride that I know I need to find something to entertain myself. Hmmm not a problem. I text the girl that answers the phone at one of my plants and tell her I need a little something. Within minutes i've got some very interesting pictures to entertain myself with and promptly ask Ryan and imitation wifey what they think. They crack up and say not bad....not bad at all. Haha. You gotta step your picture game up and keep it interesting. Keep an eye out for the newest website that's about to be up and coming mirrorbitches.com The guys talked about opening this up and posting what girls send to guys. Being an avid collector myself, I am def ready willing and able to contribute!

We finally arrive and get out to the house where everybody else is spose to be. Along the train ride I learned that Ryan "forgot" to tell me that his girls friends were no longer coming out for the weekend, and so the circle of BF came back around to bite me. We roll in and there is a group of guys cooking up some food. Bingo, let me introduce myself and yes I would like one of those chicken breasts! I meet the girls that are there and figure out that this is actually a large couples weekend. Just our luck Hurricane (insert any relevant name here) was pushing into the area so it was actually kind of raining and the rest of the people that were supposed to show up actually decided to cancel but pay their share. Understandable.......the Hamptons is actually very much like northern Michigan. Lots of trees and nature and then some MTV cribs houses. I didn't know what to expect, but it didnt take long to feel right at home out there.

About the house.....this place was pretty dam huge. It had an underground pool outside, game room upstairs and a shit load of beds packed into each room so that you could accomodate the maximum amount of people into these places as they are expensive as fuck to have for the weekend. We start playing some drinking games, pool, etc and before I know it, I am pretty tired. I try and pass out in one of the little beds by like 3am and then I get woken up by Ryan asking me if I want to come back to his girls place which is around the corner and post up in a queen size bed. We grab our stuff real quick and jump into Ryan's girls car. Not more than five min down the road are we when we get pulled over by officer bacon. Of course we would have a break light out and where is your documentation? Ryan's girl is pulling out expired insurance papers like their going out of style. Cop was finally like, this one is from 2004. In my drunken backseat stupor I thought we were going to jail....haha. Finally, he's like just get out of here.......wow love a get out of jail free card.

Next day we wake up and Ryan's girl is being a bitch and wants to go back to New York. Ryan is trying to talk sense to her before she heads out to get her and him some breakfast. None for me as I had already woke up before everyone else and made a meal of well cooked expired eggs that I found in the refrigerator....yea I pulled a Puz, caw! My solution to the matter was 86 this chick and let's do what we are very good at doing. No need to explain. Ryan is torn because he falls quickly for girls and appreciates my advice which is usually spot on. For the time being they reconcile and then Ryan say's why not invite Kelly Mac and her two roomates out for the weekend? I'm like yea why not, I hadn't see Kelly in a long time and we went to MSU together.

He makes the call and then sure enough the girls are down to come out. When they get there I was pleasantly suprised to see Kel, a thicker roomate and one that was smoking hot! Ryan had told me they were attractive and that he had tried to hook up with both the thicker chick and had been denied by the hot one. With a smile on my face, "Do you mind if I try?"....hahaha....

We get introduced real quick and then we are all getting along real well. Talking about school memories, jobs, etc etc. We got back to Ryan's girl's place and then we started playing some drinking games. It was raining outside, which was a shame because the house was just as dope as the other one. Underground pool, ping pong......not happening though. We play several different drinking games but I shined at Presidents and Assholes. As the president, I took full advantage of my priveledges and we were all cracking up. We went over to the other house for dinner real quick and continued to play team pool and flip cup. We did not show up at flip cup and the guys were ridiculed all night...oh well. We went back to the other house to shower up real quick and get ready to go out to one of the bars. Now everybody got all done up and let me tell you that Kel's roomate was looking outstanding! I casted out the bait and told her she looked good.......let the games begin. On the cab ride there i'm sitting in the middle seat and out of no where she starts rubbing my shoulders from behind. YEAAAAAAA BOIIIIIIII! Time to clock in! We got to the bar and it was packed with a lot of people. There was a really good band and we were just chilling and hanging out. We did a few shots and before I know it, Erin(hot chick) is all over me.

Now I never appreciated that guy that making out in front of everyone, in fact I hate that guy. But that night I was the asshole. We were going at it until Ryan helped me out and was like hey let's get out of here. All systems go.....YES LET'S GET OUT OF HERE. We get back to his girls place and Kel and all her girls go into the back room and shut the door. Immediately i'm thinking this is not good.......I have Ryan go investigate what's going on, but he can't figure it out either. I thought Kelly was telling Erin about how she had already hooked up with me back in school(she later hooked up with Ryan the following year...hahaha) and that was going to ruin my chances with Erin. I couldn't have been more wrong. Erin comes out of the back room in a bathing suit and goes and jumps in the pool. Hell yea it's on! I change real quick, jump in and immediately regret my decision. It is cold as FUCK!!! I see the garden hose still filling it up and then everything makes sense haha. We mess around for sec and then i'm like lets get out of here. We run inside and then the following shower scene that ensued was something out of a porno. Every thing that could have fallen in that shower was now on the floor. People were trying to sleep but we didn't care. The shower was about 2ft by 2 ft so unfortunately we had to peace out and headed to my room. This chick was a freak! I do work, start to pass out and then she wakes me up to do work again........i'm immediately in love lol! I wake up the next day and have no idea where i'm at only to look over and see Erin next to me. Quick decision, I do work again haha. This girl's personality was amazing to bad she lives in the big apple.

We gather our stuff and jump on the train to get going back to the airport. Ryan and his girl stick around so its me, kel and her two girls. I get Kel hooked on this new application for the Iphone called spell number, where you can send icons in your text. This helped pass the time of the trip. I said my goodbyes and get going to find a cab back from Jamaica station to La Guardia. "Taxi sir, you ready?" I look over and I see this short ghetto black guy motioning me to follow him. I start walking and then i'm thinking where is his cab? He takes me back to into this alley where I expect to get jumped and he laughs and says, "private cab, jump in!". I roll with it since he is half my size and he agreed to my $20 proposal. The guy is a real piece of work.....seems nice enough but he's fifty, has an oldest son that's 32 and just got engaged to a girl that he has a child with that is 23. After telling him he is my idol(hahaha) he tells me the story about how he was going through tough times and addictions. His pasture took him into his house and that's when this guy started messing with his 18yr old daughter, now his fiance'. That is some shit!

I finally get dropped off in one piece thank god, and wait to board my plane. I thought I had heard someone say my name while I was waiting but I wasn't sure. Fast forward.....I get on the plane and make a b line to the back because I really had to piss. As soon as I exit I see N^2 X girlfriend Kristine sitting there. Now Nate really liked this girl, but she was a dumb bitch and I don't care much for her. I curtly said hi and then headed to my seat. Dropped a txt to Nate and then started reflecting on the weekends events and about what trip I was going to do next. Just another strong weekend in the life of the CP, more to follow....

Chillin in Miami

Based on the date of my last post I definitely need to step my blog game up. There's been numerous trips so let me start with Miami.

Miami Puz finally got himself established in the Coconut Grove area so Ryan and I knew we had to continue to ride his coat tails and take a trip down there. Grabbed a ticket for $200 bones and started to wing it from there. Puz scooped me up from the airport and we skirted around the area briefly before I entered a familiar scene inside his house. Dirty dishes everywhere, no glasses to drink out of, and his room looked like a bomb exploded.....No prob, this is the same guy that I came to know several years before......"Hey got any shoes I can borrow, hahaha LMAO!"

Ryan finally showed up in the C300 that I agreed to rent with him for the weekend. Car was PIMP! Can't roll around in Miami without the proper ride..We began making fun of each other immediately with our usual derogatory remarks and then decided to head on down to Puz's club so we could see where he worked and introduce us to his friends.

Nothing has changed, Puz is still the man of the hour no matter where we go. We had waitresses hooking us up with whatever we wanted. Begin the interesting situation.......so I had been sitting down at a table for all of 5 minutes when this smoking hot chick walks up next to me. Amazing body and chest was put on the 5 year plan at 0% interest......haha FAKE! "My friends and I are bored and want to come join you guys"........not a problem sweet heart....I cleaned off our table and she came over with her two girls. The initial chick sat across the table from me and that's when I fell in love with her friend. She was Columbian and had that spice that I like. I start flirting with her and have her eating out of the palm of my hand in no time. I ask them if I should speak Spanish to them, but they adamently said no they prefer English and White guys as the chick across the table continues to smile at me. By this time i've already made my decision about which one I want, so I ignore the girl across the table from me that's trying to get my attention and pissing Ryan off, and keep hitting on the Columbian chick.

Finally out of desperation the chick across the table throws out, "Hey have you guys ever heard of Bangbus?" Hold the phone......did this chick just say bang bus??? Yea of course i've heard of it why? She smiles and says, well I may have been on it once or twice! I couldn't believe what just came out of this girls mouth(or has been in it!). This was an open invitation for me to take her back to Puz's and do some serious work, but having visited this website before, I was actually kind of grossed out. What's ironic is that I know that girl that does the updates for Bang Bus and she is hot as hell as well. She wanted to hook up but I passed on that since I heard she was banging every African American gentlemen in the Detroit Metro area....haha. No big deal.

Fast forward, we continue to hang out at Puz's bar for the night where he isn't spose to be working, but he gets on stage to do a few songs and busts out "Yea" by Usher.....not bad on piano! End of the night rolls around and it's time to take off. The Columbian chick wants to hang out more but the Bang Bus ringleader was bent on making sure everyone left with her. Figures...

No worries, I was just happy to be hanging out with my boys and be chillin in Miami. We hit an after party for a little bit and then I had to pass out.

Next day I woke up parched as hell only to be met with the mountain of dirty dishes that stared back at me in the kitchen. I grabbed whatever was available to hold liquid, a measuring cup and ryan had a small cooking pan. LOL LOL......it was ridiculous.

We woke Puz up and taxi'd down to the beach in the C series. Tons of high end cars on the road.....and yes someone was rolling in an R8......look it up if you don't know what i'm talking about. This Audi car is sick! We paid for an umbrella because Puz is super white and it was hot as fuck out and proceeded to chill and enjoy the beach scene and waves. We went in a couple different times and finally had to quit b/c is was so exhausting. 30% white chocolate, we proceeded back to the crib to get ready for the nights activites. Now, I don't know what Puz was thinking having us go to this nice ass bar and him trying to get in wearing a Tshirt(yea don't ask), but through our negotiation skills we were finally able to get him in, Dumb ass.....This place was packed and was high end. It didn't take long before I had a little fan club going and some gay guy grabbing my ass........not cool. Definitely felt uncomfortable. The bartender in the back was on lock and then I picked up some amazing 6ft tall chick by the dance floor. Puz and Ryan were getting drunk and I soon followed. This continued while I grabbed a few numbers before I found myself passing in and out in the back of the car with Ryan doing like 100 down the freeway.

Next day Ryan and I decided that we were gonna hit the beach again, but it was overcast and rainy outside. Puz wanted to catch up on his sleep cause he had to work that night so Ryan and I ended up in the hood watching a game of Jai Lai. It took us a half hour before we actually kinda understood how to play, but since there was betting involved it was pretty interesting. We were the youngest people there by 40 years. You know that smell when you walk into an older persons home.....yea that's what this place smelled of. Time to peace out, we could only hang out so long and then it was starting to brighten outside so we chanced it. We made it a couple hours on the beach watching this huge storm come in before the torrential rain we got caught in decided it was time for us to go. Sunny then stormy every 15 minutes and I thought Michigan weather was crazy!

That night we decided to do it up big time. Ryan had a contact in the Miami area that he had worked with out of New York, so he hit him up to take us out. We ended up meeting this guy in the heart of Miami and YES it was expensive and YES there were the hottest most amazing girls i've ever seen. It was even intimidating at times because not only were these girls good looking, but some were even as tall as me! I was like what the fuck is going on down here!! So in keeping with standard guy protocol I picked up a round of drinks for the 3 of us. When the bartender told me $60 that's when I decided I wasn't buying shit for anyone else the rest of the night. Jeeezus it's expensive down there. We bounced around to a couple different bars before we ended up at a dance club around 3am or so. We walk in and in no time, we have chicks. We're hanging out with these girls for awhile before mine blows up on me and says that i'm hitting on her friend. Whoah, talk about psycho! Words were exchanged then we peaced these girls out. That's not how we roll. Finally it was like 4 in the morning and we couldn't do the bar scene any longer. Again I don't endorce drunk driving and I think it's retarted, but for some reason when Ryan and I get together, we think that the two of us can talk each other into getting home safe and sound. Luckily this trend continued and yes we are dumbasses.

Sunday was a sad day. Waking up and knowing you have to head on back to Detroit in a few hours back to normal life. It's hard to explain but I know that we will always be friends and continue to do these trips that we do. Puz is a very random person, but I think that's why I find him so entertaining. YES I still own him. We grabbed some lunch and then went on our way. I tried to take one last picture and as the young lady who was fresh off the boat snapped our photo, my camera stopped working.......Now I was pissed at the time but then oh well, I had my pictures and I could get a sweet camera for a couple hundred bucks, but now I can't find my camera so I have nothing to document me going on this trip...FML.

Either way it was an amazing time and an amazing place to live. I envy Puz but i'm sure we will reunite at another location in the near future.
