21st B-Day Party

To celebrate my 21st birthday party I was planning on having a normal day, you know going out for supper with the family and then maybe trying out some downtown bars for October fest. My 21st was anything but normal but thats what you can expect when your on call for towing company. A normal 21 year old would possibly wait up all night until they turned 21 at 12:01 AM and then go to that bars and drink. My 21st at 12:01 consisted of getting a winch out in Mindoro at 11:30 because a driver went off the edge of a hill and rolled the car until it smash into a tree. My crew and I spent over an hour on scene winching the car out. There was an officer on scene and he thought it was pretty funny that I was spending my 21st winching out a car. The driver was lucky to be unharmed. By the time I arrived back home it was already 1:30am and there was no way I was going out. But with the money I earned and helping someone out of a bad spot I guess you could kind of consider that to be part of my 21st birthday present. I did go out that night and had a fun time at Octoberfest so it was a good 21st.

Concert Day!

Today I will be heading up to the Twin City's to finally see the Rascal Flatts concert! It should be an awesome time. This will be the first concert that I have ever attended. My best friend finally decided to get off work for the concert after his boss called him crazy for not going. The surprise is still ruined but it still should be a kicking time. We will be leaving today around noon and we plan on going to the Mall of America and letting the women do some shopping. Other than the mall and the concert I think we are just going to wing it for the rest of the trip. On Monday it's back to school and work! I will check back in later on in the week to let you know how the concert went.

Surprise!!! Surprise......

As my first post it may not be as extreme as I thought most of my post were going to be, but this post just goes to show how even your best friend can stab you in the back. So let’s get some background information: My 21st birthday is coming up in 13 days and I still have no clue what’s going on or at least I didn't until yesterday. This is how the story goes...my wife and I were lying in bed early in the morning when my best friend called her cell phone. She decided not to answer it, I didn't understand so I asked her why he called. She said “she didn't know”, I assumed it was something to do with my 21st birthday so I left the room and told her to call him back. A couple of minutes later she came out and said "Ok so do you want to know why your friend was calling me?" I said "sure why not". She then proceeded to whip out 4 Rascal Flatts tickets to the Xcel Energy Center for the upcoming weekend. She then proceeded to say "your best friend is the biggest dick ever". Obviously I’m using lighter language. Well as I soon found out my wife had this huge surprise trip planned out with my best friend and his girlfriend to Minneapolis to see Rascal Flatts play because she knew it was my favorite band. They had said the week before that we were going to take a trip up to Minneapolis to go to the Science Museum and just hang out. They completely had me fooled, until my best friend decided to bail a week before the concert because of some stupid (not even mandatory) management conference for his work. In the end we were left without a hotel because his girlfriend had booked a hotel cheap through work and she was no longer going. Also, on top of that we now have a week to get rid of two Rascal Flatts tickets or we’re out the money they cost us. The whole point of this story is my best friend or so I thought ditched me and my wife and ruined my birthday surprise that my wife had been planning for over two months, some best friend. I have two Rascal Flatts tickets for sale so if anyone is interested let me know!
