Mustachioed Men

I started thinking after I put up my last post that some of you may be wondering why the hell the guys grew moustaches. It's quite simple really. They are dorks. But then again, most men are. Haha... :)

Okay, the real story behind the staches:

Last year at Buzzards & Beer some of the guys decided that they would play Edward 40 Hands. For those of you who don't know what Edward 40 Hands is here is a picture to explain it...















And this is what happened to 2 of the 3 that finished...



Basically you duct tape two 40's to your hands and can't take them off until you finish them. This means either you pee your pants or you drink them fast. It results in a lot of drunken messes.

This year for some reason they decided they wanted it to be called Eduardo 40 Hands and they would start to grow a stasche 2 weeks prior just to fully participate whole heartedly in the game. (Travis being the over achiever he is, started 3 weeks in advance. That is what makes his porn-tastic.) Anyway, since we had a keg and a lighter attendance this year they decided not to buy 40's and so the stasches were grown for no reason other than a good laugh by all. I know I laughed. A lot. And then told Wade the second he got home to shave it. It looked like I was married to a pre-pubescent 12 year old. Now thats robbing the cradle!

Good times.

I Feel So…. Old (yikes!)

I’ve noticed a few things slowly come about as I’ve been progressing through my 20’s. Being that I am less than a year away from 30 really has me starting to feel “old”. Well, actually, let me rephrase that. Mentally I'm still not feeling old but I feel like I should act older, closer to my age. B/c I sure don’t think I act like a soon to be 30 year old. However, I’ve noticed that my body wants to make me stop and slow down and act like I’m older than I feel. I get cramps and crinks in my muscles and bones that I never used to get. I’ve got more wrinkles popping up what feels like daily. And I’ve got fat that will not, absolutely flat out refuses, to leave my ass!

This past weekend we spent out at our friend’s cabin up north for our annual “Buzzards & Beer” event. We fry up some turkeys and buy a keg and enjoy every last drop of it all. We also enjoyed playing games. The usual drinking games like corn hole (aka: bags), tippy cup, and beer pong were played, but then someone brought out whiffle ball. We played this last year for a bit however it was cut short when Wade decided to slide into 1st and tear off Erika’s big toe nail. Thank goodness she was drunk otherwise that would have hurt like a mo’fo! Regardless, last year I handled it all in stride and had a blast. This year seemed to be a different story. I thought I was doing good. I hit the ball the majority of times up to bat and made several runs in. However, towards the end of the game (when my team was completely schooling the other team) I had to hit and run back to back at least 4 times. Those 4 times in a row running really got me exhausted. I was out of breath and sweating. It’s pretty sad. But the real bummer hit me the next day when my body was aching sore like I had just been in a boxing match against Mike Tyson, but I still had both my ears. (Now THATS scary!)


WTF?!? Seriously. All I did was whack a ball and run a few laps around the bases. I’d say probably a total of 6 times. That is all it takes now to get my body feeling like I got run over by a truck??? My body is lame.

The kicker of it all is that even after all that running around my body still had to hang onto those 4 extra pounds I’ve been trying to lose since June. Getting old, you suck! When I was younger I would lose weight by lifting a Butterfinger to my mouth. Seriously. I’m a sad panda.

Here are some pics from the weekend:

Here are the guys w/ their stasches. They are quite proud of them. Wade looks like a 12 year old boy who hasn't fully gone through puberty yet. Josh's is good, but since he left the soul patch you can't get the full stasche effect. I'd have to give Travis the award for stasche most like a porno stasche. Classic and disturbing at the same time... Oh yes, he wants you.












Here's a close up of Wade's barely there stasche. And this was 2 weeks worth of growth. Contain yourself ladies... He's spoken for. Haha...


Here is Wade doing a wheelie. He soon crashed his ass while doing one and had to do this to get his muffler back into place...


Beer pong!
Danielle loves her porno man and his hot, sexy boots. They go perfect w/ the stasche.
