Day the Sixth, Wednesday April 28, Oberlin University

So,

I woke up on this day in a bed with a fidgety Pete. Luckily for me, he was fidgeting not because of any serious ailment but because he was afflicted with the "have to pee boner" and was too lazy to go down to the bathroom. Oh wait, that's absolutely without question the worst possible reason in the world for him to be fidgeting while snuggled up in a small double bed with me. Dag.

Anyway, after that fine how do you do the members of FXA suited up and hit the town with Gordon's cousin (actually Karen's close friend) Jen.

Me: Where are we now, Gordon's cousin Jen?
Jen: Well, I'm actually just Karen's good friend, but we're in Squirrel Hill.
Me: Is that because there are lots of squirrels here?
Jen: I don't know.
Me: Man, they're giving those medical degrees away like candy these days, huh?

For those of you scoring that conversation at home: Sarcasm advantage - Welsh, Actually doing something with their life advantage - Gordon's cousin Jen (actually just Karen's good friend).

Anywho, after some grub we hit the road towards Oberlin. This drive was completely without incident. I really wish we had picked up some blow or three dollar Ohio hookers, but we didn't. We played computer games and listened to Al Franken books on tape. Rock and Roll!

So we got to Oberlin and the gig was cancelled. It was a shitty gig anyway, so we were OK with it. After a halfhearted attempt to get another gig, we decided to take the night off and went into town to eat ice cream. I had mint chocolate chip. It ruled.

Later we put some miles toward Chicago on the old van and finally stopped at an econolodge. We watched baseball and I took a MUCH needed shower.

Now people, remember. If it's this much fun to read about it imagine how much fun it was to live it!
