Real Men Drink Bellinis

Friday the 24th - not as ominous as Friday the 13th, and twice as awesome. Jeddia, Kayleria and I went and got ourselves a rental car (Ford Edge) and drove down to Edmonton. I’ve never had a trip fly by so fast. I’m pretty sure we were all motor mouths for about 2.5 hours. The first time I took a break from the conversation and the surroundings – we were only 45 km outside of Edmonton. Eventually we made it Edmonton through all the traffic and got lost on the way to finding a Hotel. We met up with Furyian, Calith, Bamboochu, and Calith’s sis at the DQ (Where I grabbed a pre-dinner burger) and they lead us to Hotel #1 – which was full due to the we-had-no-idea but ever-so-important Indy 500 event. Luckily, the hotel across from it still had rooms!

At this point, I was starving…and that never happens, right?
…Right?
We headed down to West Edmonton Mall, where Jeddia got the Furyian & Calith grand tour of half our navy, amusement park and ridiculous amount of stores – and then we headed to Earls. Steak is win. That is all. Oh, and Calith is a nancyman because I had to finish his steak for him – and half the other guys veggies – because they eat like mice. Crumbs! Oh, and there was incriminating evidence that I drink girl-drinks. Attached is this evidence. BRING IT ON, TROLLS!! Post food we walked around for a while, and everyone hit up the Roller Coaster – and then we headed to Capital Wannabegangstaaa. Or, Capital X. Whichever you prefer. There was a Paul Brandt concert on – which means I closed my ear drums for the night. But, they had a wicked fireworks show at around 11:00, and then it was a walk through the ghetto to the car – and then home. I actually stayed with my good friend Sarah and her dogs (who are adorable!). Two chocolate labs – and the youngest one is a puppy who must weigh near 100 pounds and he was jumping all over the place for hours! I love dogs.
