The online chronicles of a painter living in Austin, Texas


SCHLIEFKEVISION IN KANSAS:

WESTPORT: NIGHT 1
PICTURES FROM THE WATERING HOLES
August 5, 2004 - It's been eleven years since I last drank Mad Dog, and Jodie and I both knew nothing good could come from it.  Yet, she insisted we head over to QT and force ourselves to go for it.  And we did, and oddly, it was good.

A wild night was spent drinking our QT stock, heading over to the confines of Charlie Hooper's, where bad murals and obnoxious couples from California haunt your very soul, but still carries itself in a cool fashion.  We'd eventually end up in Westport, exploring Buzzard's Beach and America's Pub until closing, and then the insanity began.

Getting back to D and TK's house, J's dream came true of a George Michael and Eazy-E dance fest, soon to be interrupted by trotting across town to end up at a random house party.  The night ended shortly after the sun came up, and surprisingly, no ill affects from the night before took serious hold. 

Quik Trip Special: Mad Dog 20/20, Dollar Menu sandwich, 1994 all over again.

The spoils: with a Beast thrown in for good measure

Innocent or guilty?

Chugging away

20/20, 20/20

Che it loud, Che it Proud: Done!

And still so much left to do...

...like figure out the top ten George Michael songs of all time. This list scared me.

The Beast did not scare me so much.

Jodie makes us all proud.

Sassy lil picture, don't you think?

Everyone loves a good hot dog

The Golden Girls are nothing but trouble, well, fun too.

Rose.

Dorothy.

Blanche.

Just six months ago, this girl hated the concept of a cell phone. Now she has reached addict level. It's like the Unabomber deciding technology is pretty cool after all.

Why is that beer full?

Hamm's - the true choice for poor alcoholics

Lady Killer

Pizza stains.

Good times.

House Party!!

Not pretty, but funny.

Jodie somehowe decided to climb on the mantle and check out the glittery ceiling.

Somehow, noone was hurt, and nothing was broken

The house party had a big bottle of Fabreeze out for all to use.

Things lasted until the light came up.
