Riding Dirty at Jersey’s

Bffs!
Bffs!, orig­i­nally uploaded by m!les.

Yes­ter­day was “really long day with cor­po­rate guys” day. We had to be at work at 8, which, with the drive, meant we had to leave here at 7 all dressed nicely and ready to stay until 5:20 or so. My good­ness it was long, but lunch was on them, so it wasn’t all bad.

While at work, how­ever, I was chat­ting with Jeff Gab­hart. Jeff was orig­i­nally going to go to a Wolf Parade con­cert in Min­neapo­lis. Note: this isn’t THE Wolf Parade. That would be humor­ous and ter­ri­fy­ing, as wolves hunt in packs and would almost cer­tainly become incensed at the sound of yelling chil­dren. How­ever, the band is quite good (hint, hint: Bryce). Any­way, Jeff said that he was com­ing to Madi­son, and I said that I would try to make it to Jersey’s for wings.

It was about 6:40 when I was finally on my way to Jersey’s. I got there and I found Adam Hafner, ridin’ dirty, or, at least, his blog is. Also there was: Jeff, Carl Ware, Sarah Lin­ne­man, John Fis­cher, Phil Hud­dlesteiner, Bobby Dineen, this girl who was a flute when I was in band, this girl who was a flute when I was in band’s boyfriend, Dusty Schn­abel, and maybe some peo­ple I forgot.

We talked about:

  • Snakes on a Plane
  • Snakes on a Space Shuttle
  • Snakes in a Parachute
  • Moun­tain Lion in a Car
  • Charg­ing Rhino on a Train
  • Blank on a Blank
  • Apple
  • Mac­book
  • OS X — Leopard
  • WWDC 2006
  • Microsoft
  • Microsoft Win­dows Vista
  • Boot Camp
  • Wings (I got 4 teriyaki and 4 bold bbq)
  • Drinks (I got a Shirley Tem­ple and water)
  • How good musi­cal artists never come any­where near our state
  • How Jeff sees Adam every day for at least fif­teen minutes
  • How broth­ers can’t shake hands, broth­ers gotta hug (and pick the other per­son up if possible)
  • How a $5 tip is way too much and a 2¢ tip is way too little

All in all, it was a good sup­per, and it was nice to catch up with Jeff and Hafner and those guys. But they did make me unable to get any dishes or laun­dry done. Damn you Hafner! (and Jeff and Carl and those guys)!
