Spontaneous Ice Cream

So I'm all bored and I call Maria because it's her day off, and I'm all "bitch, les go git some ice cream" and she's all, "bitch, I'm working 'cause I took the weekend off but I'll be off soon!" So I says well, meet me at wherever, and she's all well I'm supposed to hang with Jessica and Mary Rose, so we'll all come and shit!

So we all met at Bruster's, and who knew Amanda was in town on a Monday but she was there too. Then Kelly, who lives literally around the damn block from Bruster's showed up with Hank, and suddenly we had a social. And we ate ice cream, including Hank who got the famous doggie sundae (vanilla ice cream with a doggie biscuit, but the nice lady put two biscuits in his dish that day). Then some of the more macha girls hit balls in the batting cages (note: Maria is deadly with a bat. Hire her for your softball team.) Then we headed over to the driving range and hit golf balls. Silliness abounded. Kelly and Amanda are true lesbians, because they can actually hit a golf ball. Far.

Anyhoo, happy belated official blog birthday to Jessica, July 9. She's 19.

If you happen to be bored...
 
This Thursday(the 22nd), my son, Brad, has a gig in Fairport. He plays in a band called Urban Steel. It's a steel drum band and they are pretty good. I know he would get a big kick if some of my goils showed up :-)
 
It's at the Fairport Gazebo(I'll try to get more specifics) from 7-8pm.
 
Pweeeeze (insert parental groveling here!)
 
*hugs*

Catching Up

Well, it has taken me long enough, but whatever, I don't wanna hear it. Here are the minutes of the May 22 ice cream social in Charlotte. There was no special reason for having the social, except that Julia was in town, so that's a good enough reason for me!

Well, it was the end of May, so of course it was freezing-ass cold outside. Julia was in town for a wedding gown fitting. Abbott's was officially opened. We all met up there:



seated l-r: Julia, Joy, Jane, Kelly, Brad, Cheryl. Standing: Hank, Heidi

We got our usual assortment of ice cream treats, except for Kelly, who was riding her motorcycle and didn't want to drive drunked up on custard. Very dangerous stuff, you know. But it did make her sad to see all of us eating, and she couldn't partake. She was practically in tears.



Cheryl brought her kids, and Heidi didn't have to yell at me even once for my potty mouth:



It was Hank's first social, and he had a blast. He spent most of the time licking the sidewalk. But I took pity on him, and shared my sundae with him:



I just find this picture adorable, and I have no witty comment to go with it:



Well, then of course the torrential rain started, and everyone scarpered, but Kelly had to wait for the rain to stop, since she was on her bike and doesn't have a monsoon suit. So we all said our quick goodbyes, then Julia, Kelly, Hank and I piled in Joy and Jane's van to wait out the deluge.



We were there for awhile, so naturally we got bored. What's a bunch of girls to do? Dress up the dog!




Ain't he an awesome dawg? Someone should write a country song about him.

And so, there ya have it. More ice cream silliness! Woo hoo!
