Hey ladies!
Before I get to my story can I just say ..... OMG I"M GOING TO CAMP IN LIKE 5 DAYS!!!
*excited*
anyways! Story time!
On Sunday I went to the big city with Malcolm's family to watch a Jays game!
He and I drove there in his car, his parents, sister and sister's friend (who I immediately liked because she was wearing a bazinga shirt and knew a song for everything) were in a different car.
We drove to a Timmy's and met up with his grandparents and cousins. I had met the two cousins and they're awesome. One had her bf (more on him later cause he's HILARIOUS) and the other had her cousin from the other side of the family, a seven (ish) year old boy going to his first ball game! (it was my first ball game too!)
The uncle was there too. Malcolm warned me that he could be a little obnoxious and awkward but I found him to be quite funny. Also the Grandparents. I'd met Nan before (she totally loves me) but just met Pop for the first time that day.
That's pretty much Malcolm's entire family. Not a giant family, but tons of fun! I payed WAAAY more attention to them than I did to the game. of course, baseball isn't exactly exciting so that's not hard...
One cousin just had her wisdom teeth out not long before so she was hyped up on pain meds and also decided to drink. :P very fun. She also thought it was hilarious to steal my sunhat and put it on her dad, and Malcolm and the little cousin. I thought it was pretty funny too. :P
As for the HILARIOUS bf... well he got kinda drunk. Sister's friend was a Sox fan... everyone else was a Jay's fan. So he was chirping her hard :P At the end of the game he also lost his gf and got a ride with Malcolm and I to the restaurant where we went for dinner. The two of them together was both funny and irritating. Lots of fake arguing and nonsense :P we were the last to get to the restaurant and I walked in saying "never again!"
There were lots of other fun moments. Uncle telling first Malcolm and I and then Malcolm and the random old lady on his other side to "leave room for the holy spirit".
Sister's friend saying she's only allowed out on special occassions and with people who've had training.
Cousins teasing Sister about her New bf - THE BRIT'S LITTLE BRO! he is even more british, and the cousins decided to call him Ro-Dawg.
Cousin's bf trying to say that someone was "sucking the fun" but getting some consonants mixed up....
I did lots of people watching as well which is always fun. had tons of food at dinner (Tucker's!! nom nom nom!!)
Got hugs from Nan and she thanked me for coming and for the gift. (some tea and duct tape flowers as a "thanks for inviting me")
Another heart-warming moment was when Malcolm told his sis that he figures he could take Ro-dawg in a fight if he needed to defend her honour.
(this also led into a convo about rowers vs. Rugby players, which culminated in me saying they should do it on deadliest warrior )
It was a good day :) I learned NOTHING about baseball, except that the Jays got OWNED hardcore.
anyways, you've now been filled in... ie - you read my dribble drabble. Not sure how interesting it was but thanks for reading! :P

I like your dribble drabble! This all sounds very amusing! I think that the Jays usually get owned hardcore but I know about as much about baseball as you do so that could be wrong.
ReplyDeleteDribble drabbles are never a bad thing! I enjoy them quite a bit as well.
ReplyDeleteAs to the Jays (feels strange using that as a plural, I am used to thinking of a rather specific Jay...) they usually are up and down like a yo-yo from what I pick up watching with Dad. Promising start, disappointing finish seems to be the theme of the last few seasons.
