80's Music is the Leading Cause of Hangovers

Last night, Kelsey and I attended a wedding reception in Minneapolis for her best gal pal Allison and her husband Brent.  I haven't counted, but I think this was the 67th wedding and/or wedding reception Kelsey and I have attended in the last five years.  It's legitimately the third wedding in the last month.  Please friends and family, STOP GETTING MARRIED.  I understand you are in love, but you are not at all respecting our schedules.  How am I supposed to do nothing on Saturday when I need to shower and wear dress slacks by 3:00pm?

Anywho, I like weddings.  I think this is the first time in recent memory that we don't have a wedding to go to anytime soon.

The reception we went to last night was quite awesome.  It definitely ranks in the top five receptions I've ever been to.  Jeff told me one of two things makes for a great wedding: a live band or an open bar.  This wedding had both.

The band were these people: bratpackradio.



It's official, weddings have peaked.  After the now legendary wedding I attended in Ankeny a month ago (that's officially foreshadowing for a RETRO blog, which as mentioned, is the opposite of a FUTURE blog) and now attending a wedding with an open bar and an 80's cover band, there is nothing left anyone can do to entertain me.  You can all just stop trying thank you very much.

On the subject of the open bar:

I'm pretty sure I drank too many beers and combined them with too many glasses of wine and too many shots (which weren't even supposed to be allowed).  I stopped counting after my second beer, but I'm pretty sure I drank a lot more than that.  I know this because when I got back to the hotel I decided to sleep on the bathroom floor instead of order pizza and pizza is delicious.  Then I woke up this morning and my head felt like it had way too many vice grips pressing down on it (wouldn't one vice grip pressing down on a head be way too many vice grips? what a terrible sentence).

Now I'm tired.  I've been tired all day.  I'm glad Brent and Allison love each other and all, but their love really hurt my head last night.  Congrats to those two.  Good luck to anyone who thinks they are going to top that wedding.  You have a lot of work to do.
