A fun Central VA DU meetup on Saturday
Edited on Mon May-14-07 11:54 AM by LostinVA
It was me, Haruka, The Ex, Midlo, Swimboy, and Mr. Swimboy. We had a rocking good time at Maggiano's, even though Midlo only had three glasses of Chardonnay and Haruka and The Ex a mojito apiece. Hilarity reigned as we talked about wedding plans, Midlo's expensive hair care regime, the benefits of bottled vs. boxed wine, and whether or not Swimboy was regimental under his kilt. Fortunately for him, The Ex was seated between him and Midlo, or there may have been an incident between Mr. Swimboy and Midlo. For the record, we found out later that Swimboy was indeed wearing nothing under his kilt but his sandals.

After a huge meal and the ritual sharing of desserts, we all went to the nearby Build-A-Bear and had fun with teddy bears.

We had two cameras but forgot to take any photos. I blame it on the sight of Swimboy in his Utilikilt.


On edit: there is a photo of our Build-A-Bears, but Midlo has to figure out how to upload it.

:eyes:

See what happens when you drink box wine, boys and girls?

2. I know -- it sucked that the wait at the Olive Garden was so long
I may need to get the caterer to have a tank of oxygen at the ready at the reception. The sight of Sniffa in full kilt kit might drive you over the edge.

Our wedding reception will be a happening place, that's for damned sure.

5. I'm so sad that I wasn't there.
Sounds like y'all had a great time!

Now I'm going to be distracted all day thinking about men in kilts. Damn.

10. Well, I sure as hell would've had more than ONE MOJITO if I'd been there!
Sheesh. I thought Haruka knew how to party better than that. :7

12. Since I was buying lunch for her and The Ex, I think they were being good
And, by all accounts, their mojitos are REALLY good.

13. It was a Utilikilt, which are made out of thick cotton, like duck
However, friends of mine wear "real" kilts year-round, often regimental, and they find them very comfortable.
