So our old band got together for one more hoorah this Thanksgiving. Everyone had a great time (I think) and we were all surprised how tight everything was. Anyway, here's some video.

Thanksgiving & Iron Bowl pictures.
Who knew my nephews would show up in more pictures on this blog? I'm surprised. Are you?
Aiden and I being goofy:
Isaac and I being photographed:
Deer in headlights:
Laura, her sister Missy, and me, decked out for the ball game:
Isaac, Dad (kinda), Kate (almost) and me, all orange and blue:
And finally, how do Alabama fans feel about the '07 Iron Bowl?
like that.

I BROKE MY HEAD
So here's how it goes:
The first near concussion came when Kate and I were disassembling a bed frame. Long story short, a very heavy piece of wood that we thought would stand on its own did not. It did, however, stand with the help of my head. I had a good sized goose egg for a few days, saw stars, nearly got knocked out, and all that jazz.
A few weeks later i guess i decided that i didn't want my past self to show up my present self. I could describe the scenario for you, but i'll just say i hit myself on a very sharp piece of wood. On the head. It bled EVERYWHERE. I screamed expletives. At work. Oh yeah. When the bleeding finally stopped I went woozily back to work and finished my day with a huge blood clot in my hair. Yummy. Got it cleaned up, and guess what? As Laura says, i'm branded.
yeah. L for Laura. I would rather have taken a ring. Over a week later and it's still there, albeit somewhat smaller. Looks like it's going to scar, and i definitely have a depression in my skull. Yea!!!

Halloween
We had a ridiculously good time this halloween. This is the first time i've been off work for it for roughly ten years. Yeah. Damn right we got down and boogied. Here's all of us at the start.
Brian, Bucho, Parsons, and Jess. 2 DC's, 2 Marvels. Awesome.
Laura and I. Ready for adventure. At least, any adventure that can be taken on with three fake guns and a crappy bullwhip i don't know how to use:
Ran into Lewis, who had a truly awesome Doc Holliday costume (he even had a little silver cup he was drinking from).
The Green Lantern. Badass.
Lantern and Lara:
Stop or she'll shoot. I mean it man, she's got you covered.
MIGHTY THOR. Or Fabio. Or Thor.
So that's the first stop. Every year in Five Points they do a poker crawl, where you go to five different bars and get a playing card at each one. Then whoever has the best hand at each location when it's over wins $100. We lost to two laffy-taffy sorority girls that weren't even wearing costumes. This made Thor MAD. So mad that when we got to Zydeco (our final stop) he smashed The Green Lantern with his hammer Mjolnir.
Shortly after we were all friends again.
While at Zydeco, we met a few more friends.
Meow! I'm a kitty cat! And I dance dance dance....
This picture was supposed to be a close-up, but the wind was too intense. Ease up, Storm.
I've wanted to be Indiana Jones my whole life. I don't just mean for Halloween. Putting on the costume made me giddy (like a schoolboy) so you can imagine my surprise and delight when we ran into this guy. What are the odds? Apparently 100%, but i wouldn't have believed that.
He called me Dr. Jones. Anyway, here's some kitties:
So after the poker crawl we went to Phil's house for a tiny little party. That's when things got crazy.
Shaw, the inflatable buckaroo:
Laura and a man witch (get it?)
Phil as Wolverine. He had a mask to wear, but it was LAME. He had a wig that I spent an hour cutting and styling. It was too hot for his head, apparently. Christy was just AWESOMELY beautiful as Storm, and tied with Brian for best homemade costume.
Mike built his costume around a voice. If you know him, you'll get it. Most of you won't.
Shizz was a starving artist. It wasn't much of a stretch. All she had to do was starve herself. Her sign read something like, "5th year BFA. Will paint for food or booze."
Laura and Shizz, being beautiful:
"my beer, dude...."
Phil says no smoking inside, or you get the paddle.
Trying To Look Natural, with Jay and Adam:
Notice Shizz looks bored and unhappy
Until now:
BATGIRL!
EAT IT! EAT IT NOW!!
We'll wrap up the picture show with my favorite pic of the bunch, one I like to call GOD OF THUNDER:
Hope everyone had a great Halloween. I'll be posting video as soon as it's edited.
