First of all I have to say, I had one of the best weekends in a long, long, long time. The homie Geoff came to town, one of my favorite readers TT came to town. My ex (and future) wife Dara was in town. Melani, Calvin, Johnson, Cookie, etc. all came to town for the most wonderful time of the year! Beerfest!

Beerfest 2008 did not disappoint. But let’s go back a day before because honestly that’s when the festivities began.

I arrived at H’s house after cashing my last Pre-Bac check *sigh* and no sooner do we get there but Dara arrives. Needless to say I was overjoyed. I had cooked some spaghetti the night before that was good with one major problem. See I thought the crushed red pepper flakes were in one of those twist off caps….wrong….WRONG….I ended up spilling most of it into the sauce and scooping alot (but not enough) out. So the spaghetti was too spicy, I had intended to stretch it a bit with more tomatoes, but I think it was still too spicy (though the core taste was still excellent, Jennie-O makes excellent turkey sausage!). Anyway shortly thereafter Geoff arrived. We partook of drinks and I made a bad decision which I won’t publicize here, but needless to say it won’t happen again! Said decision caused me to turn in early and wake up on my bed with clothing in different rooms of my NEWLY CLEAN apartment. Mistakes were made.

Anyway, the next day was Beerfest and like I said it was outstanding. We were joined by the Beer Goddess Veronica and I think she had a good time at her inaugural Beer Fest. It sucks that Candice couldn’t make it this year, but she had her priorities in order so I can’t fault her. We drank and drank and drank. We hit the mist tents a few times, hell if you are my facebook friend you’ve probably already seen the pictures. Yes that’s right, I resurrected the camera for the Beerfest! Fun was had by all and in true Killa Cal fashion, I fell off and missed the evening move over at Fry’s house, but it’s okay!

Sunday was a day for relaxation….well at least it started that way. I downloaded alot of music to my trusty *the tears are starting to flow* flash drive. I had the entire Rolling Stone 100 greatest guitar songs PLUS the new N.E.R.D. on that thing. We went to go see Step Brothers (WHICH WAS HILARIOUS!!!!) and when I got home to plug my flash drive in……BLANK.

All of the material is on there somewhere, but I can’t access it and I think I have to format it. I lost my CV, my personal statement, my financial aid appeal letter, all of the power point presentations that I’ve done. I lost everything!….I can’t type anymore about it…..

So yeah…good weekend…bad ending……
