Shut down my cook-out party not 30min ago. Lemme tell ya how it went.
Woke up at 6 to run and get some produce for the burgers, grilling pans for beans and s**t, plastic forks, napkins, and what not.
Start Time of Cook-Out: 1:00PM- 20 something out of 40 people showed up and only about 11 of them stayed until clean up. My friend Jason and I found out that we SUCK MONKEY d**k at charcoal grilling so when our friend Alex showed up and saved the day with his awesome grillin' skillz we were all like "Praise Jesus Hallelujah and Amen our middle eastern deity!" The music was hot as all s**t (because I provided all of it, of course). Passion Pit, The Unicorns, Hot Hot Heat, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Metric, The Apples in Stereo, Of Montreal, Sufjan Stevens... Need I go on?
Because so few people showed up and we'd planned on tons of people showing up to just mooch, we had a s**t ton more food than we needed. I personally ate around 10 hotdogs, drank between 7 and 9 Pepsi's and Mountain Dews, and about fifteen bottles of water. Needless to say, I'm pissing like a fire hose every twenty or so minutes now.
The people that stuck around were all good friends who were down with the s**t we all do but the ******** cops kept patrolling the area so we had to keep it low key. Still some great k**h (provided by my personal hero who will not be named) and about four bottles of Gin, Whiskey, and Vodka (once again, provided by my hero). I did not partake however because I needed to be home, at least partially sober and the k**h was enough of a buzz for me.
Acoustic guitar and bass playing. I learned chords on the guitar, a personal high point for the night. Peed in the woods a couple of times because I got tired of running all the way to the freaking bathroom. Played football, sand volleyball, and all manner of games we could think of.
Shut it down and everybody is sad about leaving for college and s**t.
My day was fun.
