Yesterday was pretty much a perfect Saturday!
lonely_doll made us yummy breakfast and then we headed over to
theophania_79's Perfect Summer Day Party. Oh wait; I walked around Lake Calhoun listening to Primus while
lonely_doll was getting a haircut first; sometimes I forget how much I <3 Primus. I think one of the top 10 concerts I've ever been to was when they performed Sailing the Seas of Cheese in its entirety at the State Theater.
ANYWAY, Tiff's party was super fun and it was the perfect day! There were some pretty entertaining dudes there in this other party, but I didn't post about 'em soon enough so I can't come up with any amusing anecdotes. Drinking Red Stripe out in the hot sun made us kind of sleepy, so we came home and took a nap around 5 p.m. or so.
We got up and headed to the Uptown for dinner; guys, the owner sold the lot right next door (which used to be their outdoor patio/parking lot) so you can't sit outside anymore. SAD. There's gonna be some chain store smacked right up against one of Uptown's most-loved establishments, which is stupid.
In the interest of supporting local music we skipped Green Day (although that woulda been cool) and headed to the Cabooze for Cold Colours CD release party. We missed the first band but got there in time to see the last few songs in Urn's set. They were pretty cool; I'm gonna have to check them out again. Cwn Annwn ended their set with Iron Maiden's "The Wicker Man," which was awesome. Cold Colours was really good, too; I got the new CD and this hilarious shirt that's a spoof of an old Journey shirt. :-)
Today we have to bring the little dears over to the vet, and while they're there we're gonna head over to Park Tavern for Eye Openers. Then we have to go grocery shopping and hopefully clean the apartment a little when we get home.
