What to do on a bachelor weekend
Aug 17th, 2008 by douglas
Most married guys, when faced with a weekend as a bachelor, would most likely go and let out the “Frank the Tank” in all of them. Lushie has been gone since Friday afternoon and I have barely left the house. On top of finals this coming week which I’ve been getting ready for I’ve also been putting in long hours at work on a project to keep things organized. My weekend has been sleeping, studying, watching the Olympics and spending plenty of time for late night tiki chat.
Friday I worked until 6:30pm so a decision was made to start the weekend off right. Made a quick trip to Gamestop to purchase Mortal Kombat: Armageddon and to compliment it, a bottle of Jager. I don’t know about you but Jager is great for a night when you’re throwing a spear through someone’s chest or laying the carnage gauntlet down on some 4 armed sub primal biatch. Using Scorpion while tasting Jager is an adventure and I highly suggest it.
From the pics above there were 2 other things I did. 1) recorded video for Should I Drink That 2) cooked chicken wings. The video was very difficult as I had to stomach a Chelada. Not just stomach, but chug it. I won’t ruin the upcoming video by going into details but will say that Chelada is Bud Light, clam juice and tomato juice. Apparently it’s big in Latino communities but personally I cant see how anyone with a soul drinks it.
The wings were fun to make. Most know that I’m always working on a new rib or wing sauce so I take advantage of the time I get to play around. Also I bake my wings, not deep fry them. Healthier (yeah I know i still pour sauce on) and I think they stay juicier longer. The sauce was made with buttermilk ranch, honey mustard and horseradish. The horseradish was key as it was homemade from a mom and pop store that I visited while at a foodie convention last year. Oh yeah, I’ll be revisiting this one again. Sheer deliciousness!
Today I’m going to detail Lushie’s car for her, do dishes, vacuum and make sure the house is ready for when she gets back later tonight. I should be working on a couple of sites that I bought recently but really, it’s too damn nice out. I should work on Studio B but I don’t want to spend the day in the basement. I should do a lot of things but I won’t because this is my day and I have a patio, a book and a chair calling my name. And a craft beverage of course.
cheers!




I’m very much the same way. When Amy’s out of town, I barely leave the house.
I’m pretty sure TheJim from 10 years ago would disapprove.
I know that spoon from 10 years ago would say “Dude, wtf! Why weren’t we at the bar?”.
and as I type that I let out a huge yawn. nice eh? Now where are my fiber, acid reflux medicine and blood pressure pills
