a prediction come true

So, I think it was thursday when I predicted an epic weekend with my facebook status. Obviously the weekend involved a trip to the City [duh]. I think the list of highlights below shows just how correct my prediction was...

  • the overly-PDA couple sitting next to mean on the plane, as i was trapped in the window seat [a total NOT-highlight]
  • the really weird cabbie
  • rolling out 2004 style
  • 80s themed t-shirts
  • the great 80s tunes
  • only catching the tail end of "Don't Stop Believing" [again, a real NOT-highlight]
  • not being everyone else
  • dancing it up to some 80s
  • the ambiguously geigh duo
  • the scene that was clearly put on for Peter and i
  • finally seeing music videos on TV again and how enthralled with them i found myself
  • lunch and a little chillin with family and friends
  • finally checking out fritz
  • grocery shopping with Jeremy
  • getting lost on the way to the concert [it was pretty amusing to be honest]
  • Sam's "let me go ask for directions" excuse for buying a back of chips
  • the bag of chips Sam bought
  • my hatred of my friends [just kidding...i admit i was being a brat]
  • kanYe West - every song was amazing but some of the highlights include: getting chills from "Champion," the heartfelt "Hey Mama" performance along with "Don't Stop Believing," 10 minutes of "Good Life," and the encore of "Homecoming" and "Touch the Sky"
  • the Sam dance
  • salsa jeans
  • Julie being a better driver than Dale Earnhardt
  • brunch with family
  • the funny guy in the Sunglass Hut where my brother got some replacement shades [badass, Neo style]
  • "I want sportier glasses!"
  • a new [and second] pair of shades for me [von zipper Rockford's]
  • Zohan, disco, the Zohan dance, "who says this?"
  • hitting the gym
  • running into someone i kno for the 4th consecutive trip to the City
  • NOPA man date
  • Los still not having showered
  • getting a cab the second we walked out the door
  • the funny numbers given out
  • having more fun than anyone else at Dragon Bar
  • the beer bottle party fouls
  • PWT showing his inner PYT by busting out some old school dance moves
  • a little bit of a battle
  • the "Don't Stop Believing - Billie Jean" mashup!!!
  • Sam's pizza
  • the run for a cab ride
  • Los storming in
  • no Johnny Drama style breakfast
  • a quick stroll thru the Haight-Ashbury Street Fair
  • a quick beer at Danny Coyle's
  • the traditional burrito run
  • Office Space and Real Genius
  • the male Sarah Jessica Parker
Good times all around from the minute the trip started. It's nice to spend time in a place so comfortable with such great people and also to get to spend some time with my brother in a place I still feel is home to me. Looking forward to getting up to see my bro and the friends that are in many ways my extended family again soon...
