The boys an I kicked FSU’s tail on Friday and Saturday so we left the weekend with 2 more W’s. 

We won on Friday 7-2 and Saturday 11-1, I can’t remember which game I played but I do remember I didn’t anything the whole and was light headed the whole time I was playing.

Here are some shots from the game:

Well this was actually 3 weeks ago but I’ve been so busy I didn’t get a chance to post it until now. So I’m going to try to remember exactly how it went.

I started off the night before by not telling Adrienne anything we were going to be doing which infuriated her and just made me laugh and enjoy myself even more. I knew she was going to have fun she just hates not knowing everything so it’s my life’s mission to hide fun things from her until the last moment possible.

She knew the end result of my day because I had bought tickets to go see Lewis Black at the Kravis Center the month prior. And since I got them so early I got to pick the exact seat I wanted and still only paid the crappy seat price which means I picked the seats in the “old crabby muppet dude” section. I call it that because I have no idea what it’s actually called.

So being that she knew what time we had to be there I told her to plan to leave the house at 12pm and I’m not going to tell her anything else.

We started off a little late, OF COURSE, because princess can ever leave ANYWHERE on time so I mushed her like a rider to a group of huskey’s in a snow sled race and got her out of the house in enough time to not ruin the whole day.

My plan was to head to the Morikami Japanese Garden which is a really cool place that I have not been to since I was probably 11 years old. The place is freaking awesome and has tons of Japanese artifacts, gardens, plants and most importantly… KOI!!! Koi are one of my favorite things on the planet and I have no idea why. My goal in life is to have a Koi pond in my backyard with a little wooden bridge over part of it that I can just hang out on.

So Morikami closes at 5pm and we get there at 4:20 which was just enough time to walk through the whole 1/3 mile long garden and stare at some Koi for a while while Adrienne mocked me for loving large colorful goldfish more than she thinks I love her. Here are some pics from the Morikami Gardens:

Next off was to “Bonefish Max”. However this is not the name of the place I wanted to bring us to and since I’m a moron and am the only person alive that can get lost using GPS, I don’t know where it is located. So I make use of my nifty no-cell-service-ever iPhone and find out that it is actually called “Bonefish Mac’s” and while I get ridiculed by Adrienne for having had been there numerous time and still not knowing that name of the place (deservidly), we’re on our way. As per usual as Bonefish Mac’s, which is a new american style sports bar, the food was great and very unique and something you would never expect to find at a sports bar. I don’t have any pictures from there so too bad you’re just going to go there and experience it for yourself.

Next up was of course, Lewis Black. We had to drive all the way to freaking central Florida, it seemed, to get there but after a good 1 hour and 30 minute trip we got there. The show was great, and with the Vice-Presidential debate only a day prior, he had plenty of fodder to blast away with. I guess no one informed Lewis about who he was talking to because he pretty much made fun rich die-hard republicans the whole night so they were all very unformatable with his blasphemy’s towards them, which left me curious as to why they came in the first place. Here are some shots from there:

Overall, it was great day and a much needed break from my crazy life where I never get a spare chance to think to myself anymore.

So I wanted to have a late night snack of just some high protein tuna. So I popped open a can, added some light mayo and pepper only to realize I had no crackers to put the tuna on!

No worries as I’m a magiver of sorts and figured out I could use an ice cream cone.

So I made myself a tuna cone and Adrienne looked at me like I was insane, but I have to admit, it was actually a pretty good solution to the tuna/cracker dilema and I think there will be many more tuna cones in my future

So one of my recent projects was setting up another one of my famous VIP ECOtec Owners Meets at the Lordstown Assembly Plant in Lordstown, Ohio. This is the home of the Cobalt and the future home of the Cruze and also the biggest assembly plant in the world. It is 5,000,000 square feet in the assembly portion of the building and builds car from start to finish in a 22 mile long assembly line.

It really is a site to behold and tomorrow I’ll be guiding all the lucky owners that registered through the plant for a great day they will not soon forget.

I went into the plant today to get the laydown of the place and get a up close and personal look at certain elements of the plant that would not be open tommorrow. Here are some pics, including one I really like of me in front of 1300hp of Turbocharged ECOtec goodness.

I’ll have tons of better quality pictures in my Flickr pool to the right tommorrow.

Apparently this is what I sound like when I pout about something say’s Phil:
