Friday.
Summer Picnic for the Phoenix Media Communications Group. At ten am the boat departs from Boston Harbor headed for Thompson Island. I have a half hour to drink all the free drinks I can. I down six Heineken and one screwdriver. When I get on to the Island I have three more Sam Adams. I only remember that I was hot and dared multiple times to jump off the boat. Everything else is foggy until Jenn and I got to Downtown Crossing and went to Filene's where a got a shirt then we proceeded home. Just in time to see my parents just getting ready to leave for the Cape. (Have fun guys, you need it.) Saturday I worked the Bottle Drive for them which was lame and went out to see Moulin Rouge with Jenn, Allison, Alyssa and Becky. It was a decent movie, it was a lot like a Broadway musical on crack, with pop songs in place of original songwriting, but the way it came to together was really good. I would recommend it for a matinee showing but, not a full-price evening show. Afterwards I dropped Alyssa off to pick up Jeremy and the rest of headed to the clubhouse for a few drinks hoping to catch Ryan and Josh (who just flew in from Phoenix, AZ that evening) before we all went to bed. This morning I awoke to do the bottle drive again and drop off said bottles to the recycling guy. Then went to see Tomb Raider which was definitely a waste of time and money. I a least thought the special effects would be good but they blew too. Overall I've had a great weekend, now if only my last week on the job would go easy and I find another I will be all set.
