Hawaii

I have been completely worthless all day. I have been resting and recovering on the same couch for the past 8 hours. All thanks to last night's Hawaiian theme party at CP's apartment.

It may be a chilly 35 degrees in Minnesota, but CP did not let that stop him. Homeboy spared no expense by decorating his pad with balloons, a tiki piñata, straw hats and leis for everyone, a plastic turtle sandbox (which held the keg), and little umbrellas for every drink. Just about everyone dressed for the festive occasion.

But where my night turned bad was playing a little game called Beer Pong. Winners of a game get to stay, and well...my buddy, Tim, and I won eight games in a row. Here's the list of the people we shut down:

1. Jenny & Jesse - sex appeal was their weapon of choice.
2. Dan & Lily - Lily was on fire, thank goodness she had D1 as a partner.
3. Gosh & Vaughn - if the game had a backboard, Vaughn would have broke it.
4. Team Eric (Iseler & Tourdot) - couldn't hang, lost by 4 cups.
5. Dan & Lily - wanted revenge, but only got served.
6. Juice & his wife - we were disadvantaged because they drank water.
7. Jenny & Jesse - a blessing to play these ladies twice.
8. Gosh & Zack - they talked the most trash, only to get owned in the end.

Champions we were for a night. But the reward was a trip to Hangover-ville. So this champ is retiring from Beer Pong. Going out as a winner, but more so after a valuable lesson learned.
