Atleast we will win the best drinker's title....

Helllloooooooooooooooo, its vball story time! We have guest stars this week! Goebs and MH! Yes thats right, our own MH accompanied me to vball - took some pictures - and helped out in the general trainwreck activities resulting in me getting too drunk. typs.

This week starts off a little different. We start AT the bar because our game is not until 9:30 so obviously the best thing we can be doing is drinking a shitload of cheap beer in pitcher form. I mean, we DO have a title to try to win - "Best Drinking Team" - and we are determined to get it, whatever the cost to our livers/vball skills. We got to the bar around 8, drank 4 pitchers, and were well on our way to blowing off our game to just keep on drinking. But of course Captain, being the saint to volleyball she is, made us all stop - get the check - and run to the high school because we were mega-late and gonna miss practice time.

We show up, tipsy, and the boys are eating it up. I must have heard Zsportsdude3000 tell me atleast 5 times how we should all always drink before the games because we are so awesome and entertaining. So anyway, we show up and guess who is there? THE MISSING 12TH TEAM MEMBER. Its week 3 and if he didnt show up for this weeks game we were gonna kick him off the team and replace him with goebs for his lack of team spirit. I have an idea what his nickname should be but I am gonna wait til later to tell you because the story of him gets a lot more interesting - and i dont want to go spoiling any surprises. So we have all 12 team mates - 6 drunk/6 sober. Xtine's american apparel ad for volleyball above conveys our half of the team's state of mind pretty clearly.

I actually do not have much to say about the games - besides the fact that we stuck with what we are good at and won one game, lost the other two. And the fact that Zsportsdude3000's sweatpants didn't have elastic this week. They were still light grey though. I wonder how many pairs of light grey sweatpants he owns?

I think the video below will give you a hint of just HOW extremely casual we are as a vball team and sum up the games better then any words i could write. (sorry its sideways - i couldn't figure out how to rotate the FSAD video)



Yep. Thats how i serve. Notice how we still won a point off it. BTW - for those who are wondering - i was NOT aware that I was being video taped - that is actually just what my victory dance looks like. hot, right?

So the games end at 10:30 (Hardcore won the title of MVP for the night) - and while normal (aka BORING) teams feel this is "too late" to go to happy hour - we decide its the perfect opportunity to return to the happy hour we had been attending before. I mean, as we know from last week - at this point karaoke should be starting, and no one wants to miss out on a good karaoke night.



















We run to the bar to find full on karaoke already being carried out by the purple team! We hold a team meeting for what we could possibly do to make sure we still win the show tonight. Hardcore has the brilliant idea of patron shots for all. Brace Face is so into that idea (or is he just into hardcore?) that he buys us ALL shots. Maybe he sold a good hedge fund that day or something.

I realize that I haven't talked to MH in about 45 seconds an I want to see what the fuck she has gotten into so I realize she is behind me talking to the new guy.

MH - " So I saw you were wearing towson shorts, we grew up in maryland"

TW - "Yeah I went to Towson, where did you grow up?"

MH - "Frederick"



















TW - "Shut up, I graduated from Frederick High 2002"

We figured out that he knows a lot of the same people we did. So I threw the question out there - "Who was your Dentist?"

TW - "Ah, I dont remember his name, but it was right off route 40 - near the cheap movie theater"

Yupp. It was 2D.

Small world, right? So I whip out my bookface and show him 132178 pictures of team olson. just incase you were wondering, he has not met any of us.

So at this point Door sees us talking to the new guy and decides to swoop in on her prey and attack him with flirts. I think her line of the night to him was "I used to be a cheerleader, so this volleyball stuff just really isn't my thing."

Okay door, last week you were a lesbian, this week you are a ditzy cheerleader? I guess the two can go hand in hand pretty nicely.

Oh but no! I almost forgot Door's other one liner of the night. It was in a conversation with her other lover Beanpole.

Door - "I really only like .05% of people"

(okay door - way to be melodramatic and emo - are you trying to be hipster?)



















Beanpole - "Oh yeah me too, but I know you like me. ;)"

(I figured that he would have used that emoticon if he could have)

I guess the award goes to beanpole for that one.

So, of course as the night goes on, we sing lots of karaoke. I even sang with a group of 40 year old lesbots celebrating their birthdays. Its like I think I have a good voice or something. I always rush the stage and take over everyone's performance. I'm kinda suprised I don't get punched in the face more often actually.

MH and I also met some crazy coked out manager that she was trying to get a job from as he told her she should be working at a thousand other places besides his. He also told us that his employees can't drink at his bar, because it would obviously lead to everyone doing blow off the bartop at 5am. Alllllllllright.

At 12:30 we decide to leave, because we had obviously won most spirited/best drinkers of the night.

Ah, volleyball. Things just keep getting better.
