for an informative purpose

1. Since the cottage trip lasts all weekend, I'll end up getting my guitar the following weekend
2. I may be wet when I show up at Nick's. I would have just ran 3 miles and would have taken a shower, so if I drip on you, live with it.
3.I call a couch to sleep on when we get to the cottage. CALLED IT.
4. It may be a month away, but I'm not going to be able to practice on Tuesday September 30th(I'm bringing it up because its a jew holiday so no school). It's Beesy and I's 6th Month Aniversary and I'm fairly sure she won't want to spend it kicking me in the shins for dethgrowling.

yea, that's about it...and on a final note...
Rex: "Hey Weevil...check it out. My dinosaur is horny. uh-huhuhuh. Get it?"
Weevil: "Yeah. Heh-heh"
Rex: "So, it's your move, or something?"
Weevil: "Heh-heh. Bugs are cool."
Rex: "So... I'll attack, or something?"
Weevil: "Heh-heh. You, like, totally just activated my trap card buttmunch."
Rex:"Uh-huhuhuh. No way."
Weevil: "Fire! Fire! Yeah! heh-heh."
Rex: "This sucks. I'm gonna go, like, get some nachos."

Current cottage trip details

okay, heres a list of basic details that you will probably want to know so that you can tell your parents when you ask

we are leaving at 7:00 PM on friday from my house. try to get there around 6:30. we are NOT picking ANYONE up from their houses.

we will arrive back home on monday at roughly 4-5 o'clock. we'll probably do it like a boy scout thing where we drop you off at your house with your crap.

there will be two cars:

1 - a pacifica

it will hold my dad, my sister, gus, and THREE of you. you will watch a movie in this car so that you don't bother my dad or my sister. this car will hold a miniscule amount of luggage. or you could hold stuff in your laps.

2 - an old minivan, i don't know exactly what it is (the car we're borrowing from my grandparents)

it will hold me, my mom, and FIVE of you guys. in this car we'll just talk and stuff. no swearing or anything inappropriate, though because my mom will be able to hear everything you say. this car will also be able to hold a good amount of luggage. i think... i don't exactly remember the specs of it.

so, if you want, you can call dibs on what car you want to be in on the blog, otherwise, you'll have to fight it out in my driveway.


other info:

there WILL be other people you don't know there.

you must be GRACIOUS GUESTS, otherwise you will be kicked out

there will be a band playing on the beach on labor day. i don't know who they are or what music they will be playing.

bring money so that you can buy stuff. my parents aren't paying for anything. EX: movie tickets, candy, beverages, etc...

... uh i dunno, i'll think of other stuff to tell you later. i'll post it up soon.

Cottage problem solved

okay, we are borrowing my grandparent's minivan, so we will have enough room. problem solved. nobody needs to worry about anything any more.

also, my other family members say we aren't allowed to play any music while we're there, so i say we can still bring our guitars, but no amps. just incase we have any sudden inspiration for a new song, we'll be prapared.

Frickin hilarious

this is an interpretation of the song, pull harder on the strings of your martyr, by trivium. its hilarious

unless some of you don't mind being sand dune hermits...

my parents have agreed to drive us up to the cottage, but may not be able to drive us back (they won't be joining us at the cottage). so we'll need someone to drive the persons my parents drive up to drive back.
otherwise, the trip is screwed.
the burden is no longer on my shoulders now
HA!
oh and someone don't forget to bring a camera that can take videos.
Michigan Stupidity needs a sequel

Psychosocial situation

if we do not go to the cottage, practice starts at 345, and here is tabzors.

http://www.911tabs.com/link/?5574910 - Guitar Tab

And even though marshall probably already has memorized the lyrics to this song, http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/s/slipknot/psychosocial.html - Lyrics

i already know the drum part, and can play it O.K, i will practice it more

the cottage car situation

okay here i'll explain the current situation that is getting to the cottage. there are nine of us. plus my parents, sister, and gus. that means twelve people and a dog. i will map out the stuff layout for each of the cars

Pacifica -
1 parent
3 or 4 of us
gus
some luggage if only three of us, none if 4.

BMW
1 parent
3 of us (all in back seat)
my sister has to come in the front
a good amount of luggage in the trunk

so, all together, my cars can fit up to seven of us, along with a fraction of whatever stuff we want to bring. we need a parental volunteer if this is going to happen at all. you guys need to convince your parents to volunteer. if marshall can get his parents to volunteer, then we're set. but if not, someone else will have to jump on the grenade

Marshall's car
2 parents (if both come)
3 of us
basically all the luggage
