witty title goes here (aka Weekend Round-Up)

What a weekend it was!

Friday: The Return of The ELVi!!

After work we headed over to the C & B Ranch to meet up with the rest of the band, then headed out to the Gasthaus in Elgin. There were seven bands playing, The ELVi were on fourth, with VBS playing last.

The show was so much fun. It was really good to see The ELVi play again… it’s been well over three years! So many people came out to see them play…. hell, Dan flew in from LA just for the show!

We finally made it home around 3am, though I don’t remember anything past like… 1am.

Saturday: Moving Day

We woke up around 9am to help my mom move. Miserable day — the weather was sunny and in the 80s — much better than rain but really a bit too warm to be carting stuff up and down stairs. We got done with that around 4pm, and met up with some friends shortly thereafter.

[Ugh. My site crapped out for a little bit and I lost half this post even though it says it had auto-saved it. I really don't want to re-type the entire rest of it again. But I will. Because I love the three of you that will read this.]

We headed to the city to see The Life and Times and Swervedriver. Of course, the trip also included a visit to Pita Inn for dinner. Chicken schwarma, yum.

Sunday: Father’s Day

Finally, a day to rest and relax…

Started the day off with a trip to Arlington Height and the cemetery, then ran to the store twice for groceries and other stuff (aka: drinks) for dinner, then to J’s parents’ house for a BBQ.

I feel like I need a few days off to recover from the weekend.
