Jameson's Birthday Shenanigans

Friday was the 41st birthday of everyone's dear friend and actual Guitar Hero. He started the day with golfing with Lids and CC's brother, while I slaved to bring home the black tri-tip from Lunardis. Marinated in herbs and garlic and something that clearly makes it turn black, it was a feast for the senses.
As good luck would have it, Darryl was able to join the festivities. As bad luck would, CC was floored by either a boozy week or a stuffy nose. (Which is more likely? Hmm...) He arrived in fine form (i.e. 2 sixes and Chevy's chips and salsa) and the good times just start rolling. Now, there had been rumors of a night out on the town, but if you can believe it, we got plenty sauced at the homestead!
Highlights (or things I remember):
  • Darryl's potatoes/beans/mushrooms
  • A million dollar idea that I had that was met with some actual interest!
  • A very special "Happy Birthday Douche Bag" cake
  • Led Zeppellin
  • Singing/wailing/guitar playing (I'm a joker, I'm a smoker, I'm an all day toker...)
  • Strong White Russians and stronger Jackn Cokes. Which led to...
Lowlights (or things I did or want to forget):
  • A very sloppy game of dominoes (all me)
  • Bad text messaging at midnight
  • Stuck on the couch ALL DAY Saturday. One day I will learn! I swear!
These are my favorite kinds of nights. Impromptu parties with your favorite people. Perfection. And in honor one of the truly good guys out there. Good stuff.
