Casualty of War...

It's always me. I'm always the one who is not spared.

Many moons ago when the Taproom addition was not complete and the Annex was a separate entity of Taproom; Jeff - Bestest #4 could hang out for hours after his shift while he closed with select few and no one would know the difference. Brian & Lisa the owners were not in on weeknights, and all the more reason that I could go up to Taproom at 3am in my PJ's to hang out with Jeff while he closed the bar. Back in those days Mondays were dubbed "Slightly more than Mild amounts of fun" and Thursdays were "No pants Thursday". Seemed to be that every Monday there was a water fight. Pop guns were used to hose down whatever server had earned the foray and for some reason, I was always the one to come up almost as wet as the two players in the game.

Tonight was no exception. To satiate the boredom of the crew tonight somehow the great water fight involved Katie & Jeff. Kristy decided to stay as far out of it as possible. I stated my firm rule of if you are going to do this keep it away from me because I will inevitably end up wet. I am always the casualty of war!

10 minutes go by and Jeff runs back in the room and to his post behind the bar, hands me a full roll of paper towel and a serving tray as a shield and then the calamity ensues. R.C actually got up and stood behind me because the person to get it second to me is always him. Even standing there blocking most of the wet with the tray I still managed to get wet. Shorty - A.K.A Michelle thought I was just being a sissy until the damage was done and all of the bar in front of her, my chair and paid tab were soaking wet, and then she believed me. I am, always... without a doubt, the Casualty of war.

On another note - I'm about to be relegated to much time alone staring at the dogs. I'm sure you will be inundated with pictures and stories of the puppies being silly. I mean hell - Dexi managed to bite her own lip today and make herself bleed.

Song of the Moment: Fall Out Boy "This ain't a scene, it's an Arms race." - and my "widget" though not what I want as far as a widget goes doesn't support MP4 - shit heads! Someone suggest a true music widget - HELP ME Support the Music!
