Default Memorial Day. Grill. Alcohol. Remembrance.

I'm kind drunk on miscellaneous beer (leffe, bells brown minikeg, anderson valley summer solstice, some growler of IPA with a funny dirty name...) and a couple of mojitos and I grilled a lot of burgers and dogs. Buffalo burgers and dogs.

It was hot and the times were good and fun was had.

Did everyone else have a good mem-day?

GF and I went to "trendy taco place" to work on our mole recipe, drank 3 margaritas each, slept, and now e-whoring on the sofa. It was a good day and we both discussed the contribution of late veteran lives for our well-being.

I slept in until 11am, played videos games, built two DIYPNPs, made chicken basil hash, and had a Smirnoff lemonade and bought my wife a purse online for our 4 year anniversary next week.

Now i'm upset that i didnt have a hot dog and/or buffalo burger for lunch/dinner...

I think I saw him on Battlefield for a bit... still don't know why he hasn't gotten COD.

I packed for my week long FTX, which was like 30 minutes out of the day... not really sure where the rest of the day went.

Yea I guess wait until the new one comes out, although I heard there are like 3 new ones coming out... Either way I'm still having so much fun on COD, even with hackers.

I welded a new 3" catback system on my truck, duals...it's quiet. I'm happy though. I also drywalled a little bit in my garage and hung a new garage opener. Ate ribs and drank red stripe and heineken all day. Then drove my car and wondered why I can't just be happy with 8psi and stock injectors.

There was a margarita machine and mariachis at the party I went to. The first three margaritas tasted like limey ****...they got pretty damn good after that.

Slept in a little, shot some muthafuckas in CODMW2, then painted the trim on the windows in our office, organized the tools on the utility shelving that's been in our living room for two years and moved it to the basement in preparation to paint the living room. Washed the Miata then ate dinner which consisted of spaghetti and crescent rolls. We did burgers on the grill last night. Drank some beers that I need to post in the beer thread.

I spent the day at WW2 memorials in Belgium. Think I'm going to make the plunge and finally go into France for D-day next weekend.

Spent some time with a linguist friend up in Maryland, we got into King's Dominion for free for being military (he's retired so it was nice they extended the deal to retirees). Rode the new Earnhart-themed coaster and tried not to chuckle too hard at the rednecks in line.

Good times.
