The Last Ann Arbor Fling

Well maybe not the last, but definitely one of the last, and for me, one of the last in a long time. But i want to start this post by saying that the weekend was a huge success. Although there were bumps in the road, Chin having to work on Friday, Bar Louie, Crappy Service, we still stayed strong and made it an amazing weekend. Personally, that last post I made about what I wanted to do, I did all of it and while it was everything I wanted it to be, I think I'm done now with the quick personal sex quests....Also, I decided that I no longer have a need to filter myself on here, we're all adults and you all pretty much know what I do and say so its no point in not being fully open.

A brief summary for those that missed it, 46 happened and it was my first official one night stand. Official meaning I didn't Facebook request her, never asked her last name (she actually probably doesn't remember my first name), and I walked out early in the morning without saying goodbye or a morning quickie. Can't say I felt too good about it at the time, I think I'm too much of a romantic to really just leave a girl high and dry like that, but then again me waking her would have waked her roommate and put them both in a probable awkward situation.

While I waited for my one hour delay flight I briefly talked with a very cute girl in the airport that was flying back on my flight but headed to DC. We exchanged looks a bit but the conversation stayed on topic of the plane and didn't really get to anything interesting. After awhile she left and sat down to read or text or whatever and I got to thinking. I've always wanted to meet someone on a flight and sit next to them the way back and have something start from it. I think it would make a cutesy story and would be kinda fun meeting someone randomly like that. Unfortunately I had no kind of game in that situation, I think it could be for a couple reasons....
1.) My subconscious read her body language and deduced that she wasn't that into me to begin with so it told my conscious not to bother pursuing
2.) The fact that she lived in D.C. turned me off a little because why bother starting a relationship (friendship or more) that would end up being long distance (Even if D.C. is less than an hour away)
3.) I just have been out of the game too long and can't pick up girls unless I'm in a bar or restaurant
4.) I just have no idea HOW to pick up a girl in a random place
Whatever the reason may be this little incident inspired me for a set of quests....

Well first of all, after this weekend I've decided that I'm going to try the naked man whenever I get the chance. I will not discriminate on whether I actually like the girl (meaning would want to start something of substance) or just going for a hookup. I need to know if this thing really will work or at least the kind of variables that are required for a successfully executed Naked Man.
In addition to the naked man, I think I should set myself a weekly goal to accomplish that I can then of course blog about. For example, one could be to meet a girl/get her number in an everyday place/non bar pretty much. Another could be to do the same of another coach/teacher....stuff like that. Outside of the social life thing I could make myself see a movie, concert, show....go to a place in Baltimore I haven't been, pretty much I am going to make my life more interesting now because well like E told me this weekend, we only live once.
I am open to ideas on how I can make things more exciting so feel free to comment.

I also decided that I will every now and then give you guys a little Waithe family background. You guys may know some things about my history but there's definitely a lot you don't know, and well you have to know where you've been to know where you're going...or something like that ha ha.

Saturday was a great day of day drinking and chilling, I think I'm going to try to work more of those days into my normal schedule. We all know after a long week of work/sports a little bit of sangria and sunshine is just what the doctor ordered.

When lights are coming through the drapes and we're both yawning...

Before I start this post I want to say that I hereby officially resign from the Sangria competition and forfeit my place in it. Why? Well because it is something that I just never really got around to investing my time into, and I don't want to to show up with a half effort concoction that would taste terrible.

Another pretty uneventful weekend. Friday was a pretty fun night but other than that I decided to take it easy because well I anticipate drinking a lot this upcoming weekend in Ann Arbor.

Friday started like any other day, and we had a nice track meet to go to Friday night. I had to run practice and then drive over to the meet, something I wasn't thrilled about. However we decided to leave the meet early (otherwise we would have stayed there till 10:30pm at least) and thus start our drinking a little bit sooner than usual. Frank had some GreyGoose that he bought for the bachelor party that we never got around to drinking, so I decided to exclusively drink that at the pregame. One thing I realized at this pregame was that I don't necessarily need the rager kind of pregame we used to do anymore. We had some music playing and pretty much just played card games while sipping on Goose and Sprite, and I was very drunk and still had a good time. Another thing I realized at this pregame was that while at home at least, I kinda miss having a girlfriend. Not 45 in particular, but just a girlfriend. It's mainly because, Stann and Frank, the two people I spend almost all my time with now, both have long term gf's and it seems all their friends are coupled off as well. So when Frank's gf had a really cute friend over for the pregame, it was no surprise to me that she brought her boyfriend. Just a side note. The night took us to Fed Hill, the college area of Baltimore, where I danced and pranced and actually bought a couple of drinks. There are a couple of people who have moved to the Maryland DC area that I met in college, so I decided to finally meet up with one on Sat night. She is Wheeler's old friend from Cali, Helen, and I wasn't too excited about it mainly because most of her friends aren't the best looking and her roommate is gay( which isn't a problem except I've already seen him in bed with his boyfriend...an image I never ever need to revisit). But since she was literally at the Bar next door to me I went over to chill. This was the first time I voluntarily left the group I went out with, and it worked out for me well. A couple of blocks and drinks later, I found myself waking up next to Helen. Again, no 46, but considering it had been awhile since I've had that kind of encounter I was still pretty happy about it....In the morning I found myself with a weird thought, that actually will kinda lead me to a mission while im in AA, and that's the fact that I haven't been given anything from a girl in a very long time...since my last long stay in Michigan prior to the Chin road trip. Much to my dismay, 45 didn't like doing it, and so I never asked for it. If you haven't figured it out yet, girls who don't like giving head are usually pretty terrible at is, versus girls who like it, tend to be really good. So if a girl ever says she doesn't usually do it, or doesn't like to, you're better off just avoiding it all together, case in point the whole me getting Bitten thing....ugh. Another thing I realized, at least in my experiences, are that girls who don't give aren't the most expressive (body wise, creative wise, movement wise, NOT vocally) in bed as girls who do. Both 45 and I'm sure you all remember another who were pretty questionable mates in bed, and neither liked to give that little gift.

Therefore I have left myself a little challenge to seek out that ever elusive gift this time around in AA. Probably won't be too hard, but still should leave me with a nice lasting memory of Ann Arbor. I don't know if you guys realize this, but most likely this will be one of my final visits to Ann Arbor, at least until we're distinguished alum, because well everyone that we know and love are moving on. Hotel Arch, while the house may still be there, we all know its not the place but the WHO that make it special...Without the sweeney's and saints of the world how could Arch really live on. It would be like going to your favorite club that's under new management, the building may stay the same but the vibe and good times could never be replicated. I anticipate perhaps still vising Cassie while she's doing her big social work thing and all but it will def be an "older" scene then the crazy party scene we have become accustomed to.



All that aside, I decided to give you guys a little update on what the heck I plan on doing with my life. So I made the decision to coach both Basketball and Track at Loch Raven for another year. Mainly because I have done such a poor job saving and also couldn't get all my transcripts and what not sent into my grad schools in time to make it to school next semester. So during this next year of coaching I plan on finding a semi-regular job but mainly I plan on finding the perfect school for me. I really have fallen for Coaching, and definitely would like to do the Grad assistant coaching route for the first year of my masters. This means that whatever school has an opening for the 2013 school year, plus a counseling psychology program, will be most likely where I end up. Almost certain it will be a small school in a random place, could possibly take me back to the midwest although I'm trying my hardest to avoid any school in Ohio.

As for my car, I should really have one bought by the middle/end of the summer, so depending on our OFFICIAL location for the REUNION I could be driving to it.

That about does it for now, anything else we can talk about/catch up in person, over dinner and drinks...That sounds nice indeed. See you all in 4 days time.

Tyga- Toot It N Boot It

"I ain't have sex in a long time..." That's my favorite line in Tyga's song off his mixtape "well done."

Why does it apply, well because since I broke up with Kerry I literally haven't had sex. I'm not saying that its a bad thing or that I'm particularly upset about it, it's just the longest stretch I can remember in a long time where I haven't gotten some. I wonder what this says about me, maybe I either don't have it anymore (kinda doubtful) or just maybe I've been soo busy with school/track that I haven't even stopped to think about it (more likely). This is a nice transition into most of my post topic...my Atlantic City trip.

My first Bachelor party, and hopefully not my last. While I am sure that this was not nearly as fun as the first 1502 bachelor party gathering will be, it was still a pretty darn good time. The only thing that kept this trip from being the best weekend of my life was the group of people I went with. Individually they're all great guys, but as a group the dynamic is just lacking. There are no set roles for guys to fill and on both nights I ended up by myself wandering around the various casino's drunk. That could have gone three ways, 1) I end up doing some crazy awesome thing and having a memorable night...X. 2) I could end up lost/drunk/ wake up somewhere I had no idea and get arrested for trespassing...X or 3.) I make my way home Check. But like I said, this little tidbit didn't make the trip any less fun, just kept it from being just any other good time I could have had in Atlantic City.

Friday I got picked up right after school, after waking up at 6, and was on my way. The first thing I found out when I entered the car was that we lost the penthouse reservation we had made months in advance. This was going to be my first time in AC without staying in a penthouse. I'm not a big believer of superstitions but this definitely wasn't a good omen. Anyways we arrive sometime after 5 and of course the 5 guys who got there about an hour before us are already drunk...so what do we do, drink and each Nachos....yup that was my only meal of the day after a 6:30 breakfast and 10:30 lunch...Nachos followed by a night of heavy drinking. In anycase we called up a Limo and headed off to the Casinos to do some gambling. Well we were all excited so we decided to do a Bachelor party bet of 20$ on Black at the roulette table, the idea being that if we won it would be an epic night....well we lost that bet...bad omen two ha. Again we were not dissuaded as we kept drinking and headed to the club. Here it seemed like our luck was about to turn...10 guys for about 40 girls in the club for the first 1.5 hours. We were a hot commodity and I think I danced with around 10 different girls and made out with 4 or so. But then our luck caught up with us, and around 12:30 everything fell apart. First of all we lost Frank and Adam...who was the best man. They just crashed and went home without announcing it. Then I noticed that we all started getting rejected by the cute girls and WAY more guys joined the dance floor. After that it was only a matter of time until the inevitable happened...we started to settle. As i looked around I noticed the girls that everyone was dancing with quickly deteriorate in looks and increase in weight. I won't get into any details here but lets just say that Stann's last effort of the night came in the form of walking the Biggest girl in the club back to her hotel room only to get left at the door with a "'thanks for walking me back, you're such a nice guy."

The more my observation skills kicked in the more my buzz went away and by the end of the night I was sober and disinterested. So I grabbed the bachelor and 2 other guys and we took a cab home...and I slept on the floor. Not the ideal first night but since we all made it back and 1 of us got lucky(albeit she wasn't the prettiest flower) I think it was a good night.

Saturday started with promise and finished with it as well. To keep to short, as it was a long day...We did some shopping, all won money at the Casino, called up some strippers, and had some good luck at the club. As for the details, after we won at the Casino, we were naturally in a good mood, so we decided to call up a bunch of "agencies" in the area. We got price estimates ranging from 200 for one girl to 5800 for 2 girls and "anything you could want" We ended up settling just for one because we figured that would be enough to surprise the groom to be, and it was. She ended up bringing a friend, who we only had to pay literally 50 bucks for....lets just say she wasn't even worth that ha ha. But it was a very nice experience, we tried to make a video, but it failed (a side note, I gotta get a mac, that photo booth trick could really come in handy to start a personal collection of my quest to 50). But the main girl was pretty darn cute and had a great body, which should be the case with a stripper ha. Anyways we pregamed with them and played all sorts of expensive stripper games and went on to the Casino. The only thing that could have made this night better would have been if all the women weren't...MARRIED!!! There were some beautiful women out and again since we arrived early the odds were in our favor. I danced with one for 30 minutes before I started to get more "intimate" and after a few kisses she slipped in the old "I'm married" line ha. Oh well. Oh but as for gambling everyone apparently won big tonight again.

Some side quests of the night....I ran into some random dude who offered us a blunt to smoke on the boardwalk, so of course I complied. I'm still not sick or anything so lucky break ha.
Stann was up to no good as usual.. He simply said "be right back" to me and in that time he found an iphone and a roomkey, he then decided to go to that room and investigate, where he stumbled upon and woke up a drunk girl passed out, then got attacked by her only to have two more people walk in, then he ran away and ran all the way home ha.


Perhaps a very poor outline of the weekend but you get the general idea, it was fun, but I am MORE looking forward to seeing all you guys in AA next weekend. I also spent too much money and now probably can't buy a new suit. Sorry Chin.

I miss Wine Nights

So the first weekend in April down and another short post to show for it. It was a long week for me, my long term sub job means waking up at 6am and getting home around 5:30 after practice everyday. We had a meet on Tuesday and a 12 hour meet on Saturday so I really didn't have time to do much of anything. I suppose it'll pay off later when it actually pays off ha.

Nothing really interesting to note sadly, I went to the track today to try out some workouts I made for the kids and man I realized either, how out of shape I am, or how In shape I used to be because these workouts were killer. Pretty sure the kids won't be able to do them though, anyways I think i'll try to jump on the track as much as possible in april because Cassie has shown me, through her posts, how being in shape seems cool ha.

Umm, I don't see 46 happening anytime soon, so my road to 50 has stalled for a bit. This upcoming weekend we're going to Atlantic City for the bachelor party so I'm going to try and take pictures to have a more exciting post for you next time, I think its about time for one of those ha. I can only imagine what kinds of things these guys have planned but just know anything involving Stann is bound to get crazy.

Thats about it for me, I guess I'm cheering for UCONN to win but really my bracket died with Duke so I don't care that much. Have a nice Sunday everyone.
