It’s Friday, Friday. Gotta get down on Friday…

…Everybody’s lookin’ forward to the weekend. (Looks like annoying Rebecca Black had it right.)

Hey britches! Brichard Simmons, Britchie Cunningham.

I am mega excited that it is Friday! I am going to savor this weekend in PDX because I will be out of town for the next 2 weekends in a row… and by savor I mean do laundry, clean my room and make packing check-lists. How embarrassing for me. But whatevs.

I know I am an “adult,” BUT I am stoked on Halloween this year. I won’t stop dressing up until it is completely inappropriate. I trick-or-treated deep into my high school years, so you can bet that I am going to keep dressing up until people stop having Halloween parties to dress up for. I figure that is the equivalent of people not giving you candy because you are too old. The point of me telling you this is because I will be making my Halloween costume this weekend. It is going to be dope. Just wait. And if it isn’t… Well, then I won’t post about it and you wont know the difference. Suckers!

I don't have a photo for this post... So.. Linfield pumpkins from 3 years ago!

I promise to do a rockin’ Halloween post at the appropriate time.

Happy weekend! 

And Bingo was his name-o.

So last night I went to Bingo at The Woods. The Woods is a super cool bar/ restaurant in West Moreland that used to be a funeral home. You may be thinking that this is creepy, but it really isn't! It makes the venue funky and unique. The “parlor” is filled with velvet couches and chairs at various coffee tables and regular tables. It is a friendly community environment as the host, Brian, tells jokes and eggs on crowd involvement. It was a blast! Brian has a dry sense of humor and was just plain hilarious as he led us through the game.

Prizes consist of grab bags of Dollar Tree goodies, Good Will gems and cash prizes (once we get to the black-out rounds). It was a big crowd last night and both pots for the 2 rounds I was there for were over $100. Seriously, I had a blast and will be a bingo regular from this day forward.

Here are some bits of communication and photos of the night. Yesterday I was both youthful and elderly. I played bingo… like an 80 year old. AND I had a slumber party with Lauren… like a 16 year old. ‘Twas wonderfully well-rounded. Also, I ran into some old friends from high school. Twins named Lauren and Dana. The weird part is that I went with two of my friends who happen to be named Lauren and Dana! CRAZY!

We got really hard core. I will be carrying my dauber around permanently. Just in case there is any impromptu bingo-ing happening. Really it was the host that made the evening… not the bingo. But still!

I recommend attending this weekly event. Doors open at 8!

“Ma’am this is your insurance card, not your ID.”

I am a psycho. I really am. I am about to admit a little bit of crazy right here. I take my medical insurance card with me EVERYWHERE. I am serious right now. I know this is totally bananas... but for as long as I have been going out to bars or to parties in college etc. (uh…errr… obvi post 21 only) I have been taking my medical insurance card with me. I mean, you never know! What if I need it!? What if I somehow drink too much? What if I get roofied? What if I have a dance-off and twist my ankle when I decide that it's time to bust out a back-handspring? (This one is actually quite likely). These are all totally plausible right!? Right. I agree. That is why I take my insurance card. I switch it to every clutch, wallet, wristlet, satchel, tote… okay, you get the idea.

Out in Vegas circa 2009. See the eel skin clutch? Guess what was inside!?

I encourage you to do the same. It's just good sense!
