I had bad Mexican for dinner tonight. Well, that’s not true, it wasnt bad Mexican, it was delicious Mexican but it made me feel bad. I guess you can’t really call it ‘mexican’ either, it was Qdoba, which is only slightly more Mexican, hardly what I would call ‘autentica,’ and their talking chihuaha mascot doesn’t ‘yo quiero’ anything. Anyways, I was walking back to my girlfriend Marie’s and I quieroed a new digestive system…I’m better now though but not really.

The Red Sox are in game 4 of the ALCS and are currently down 7-1. Wakefield was in rare form for 4 and 2/3 innings then a botched catch became an infield single and the bottom dropped out. Ortiz just made it 7-2 with a homerun to complement the one Youkilis just hit. Anyhow, this isn’t about talking about the ALCS in real-time but I do hope we can come back because we lost games 2 and 3 I think because we didn’t have many things that went our way, which is classic loser’s logic. I think we SHOULD win, which is a fool’s logic, but I guess all I can do is HOPE we win, which is a Red Sox fan’s logic.

Go Sox!

Yes, I went to iParty yesterday. Why, you ask? In two weeks I will be heading to beautiful (read: not too beautiful) Hartford, CT for a weekend of constant partying (read: not really partying) for NACA. The National Association of Campus Activities is holding its Northeast regional conference and I’m attending with Austin, the intern, and my friend Alex Rosenblatt . This conference is a trade show/educational conference for all the participating colleges in the region. We have a booth and a marketplace in which we whore our material, which is our music and we’re doing it proper. Welcome to “Desert Island With Danger Room Productions”…Danger Room Productions is the company I started with Cahill to represent ourselves at NACA last year. Desert island is our awesome theme.

Last year we were on a long wait list to be able to attend the conference and didnt receive a booth in the marketplace until just hours before the conference began. That being said, we didn’t have much for the actual booth because we didn’t really invest in materials because we didn’t know if we would even be attending. Bob from Cahill printed out a bunch of ghetto signs and we made do…

…not this year

I was torn between a ‘fiesta’ theme or a ‘desert island’ theme…In retrospect I should have chosen fiesta or maybe my innards would not be feeling like fire right now. Mexico must have felt slighted. I was, however, unsupervised on this trip and went with the desert island theme. I spent $100 on the following items: 2 types of backdrops (tiki torches, or hula dancers), 3 straw hats, 6 cardboard cut-outs of fish, crabs, and other island things, coconut bra 2 types of seashell bras, grass skirts, and two pinatas (treasure chest and tiki torch head). We are ready to do things proper this year.

More on that later.
For now, I must run.
