Wow, where to begin? Pat and I had a fantastic holiday break.
Wednesday night, we drove out to my brother's, where we hung out for a bit. Pat, Phil, Becky, and I headed over to Clark's Ale House for some brew dogs and beef on weck. We met up with some of my very favorite high school pals: Taryn, Todd (who has an honorary degree from Marcellus HS), Jeremy, Marisa, and Allegra. There were a few fallen homies who couldn't make it that night, so I spilled a $1.50 Genny Cream Ale on the curb for each and every one of them (Kristen, Jenny, Jordan, Chris, and Laura).
Thursday was a very long day. We got up bright and oily and headed to the annual McCarthy Turkey Bowl XXXVII. I, of course, did not play, but Pat did. He had some great plays and even scored a touchdown. After the game, we hung around the fire and drank some booze.
After the Turkey Bowl, we went home to freshen up and then headed over to my Aunt Marianne and Uncle John's for some tasty vittles. All of the food was amazing. My aunt is such a wonderful cook. It's my favorite meal of the year. After we chomped our way out of there, we went to the Bostwick's (my brother's girlfriend's family) for some after-dinner drinks. We've gone to the Bostwick's for the last three years and we've gotten to know their friends and family, and they're a super fun bunch. Honestly, I can't say enough good things about 'em.
Friday, we headed back to Roch-cha-cha and went over to Pat's grandparent's, where we had some more good food and hung out with my in-laws. After the big meal, Pat and I were feeling pretty tired, so we decided to just rent a video. We called up Cima and his old lady and they came over....bearing 40s and deuce-deuces, and even Paul O! We watched Super Troopers, which is a GREAT movie. Pat brought out these gnarly, fake teeth he bought in Ithaca and that's when things got nutty. Believe it or not. We had some fun photo shoots, and that's all I have to say about that for right now.
Saturday, we were pretty beat, but we rallied for Melissa Thing's birthday. We went to Dicky's and Coyote Joe's (the old Metro). It was a good time, but I was so tired, I was actually having trouble holding my drink up, which is possibly a sign...
That essentially brings us up to speed. As this blog is getting ridiculously long, I think I'll wrap things up. We hope you all had a great turkey day! Pat and I have some fun up our sleeves, so be sure to stay tuned!
