Back. Mars was great. Good time. Fun people. I'll admit that it was fun to play, a little bit on grass, especially after I cut my toenails, but still, I'm glad to be done with it. Grass Ultimate that is. My flight out got delayed a little bit on Friday, but otherwise no problems. Showed up extra early Saturday morning, wasting a first round bye due to none of us actually reading Bryan's detail email. We went 1-2 on Saturday. Played some Beer Schtick. Went to Church Brew Works. Great food. As usual. Got to meet Akira's girlfriend, Aimee Eggler, with whom I will be playing at Sandblast with in a couple weeks. She seems pretty cool. I'll have a better idea after playing in a tourney with her without Akira. Also got to meet Josh and Gwen's baby, Lila. Cute as a button. Went 2-1 on Sunday. More Beer Schtick. Played some dodgeball at the Duck X-ing Feature Game halftime. Last one on my side to get hit, after being saved twice by the medic. Some pool time, some margaritas at Don Pablo's. Monday made it to the B-Bracket finals against Seven Sages. Lost. Said goodbyes, got some Wendy's, got a room, Mina and Carl showered before I brought them to the airport, got lost on the way back, watched some TV. Tuesday finished up The Da Vinci Code, flew back to Chicago, watched some more TV for the afternoon. Took a nice nap with Tracy, made some Lemon Chicken and watched Entourage via On Demand. Not a bad weekend. Might go see War of the Worlds tonight.
