THANKS to Clemson, and everyone there whom I love dearly, for an AWESOME weekend!!

Okay. You and I both know that I need to be doing my lesson plans right now. Especially considering that I've played all weekend, it's almost 11 PM, and they're due before 7:40 in the morning. But we both also know that I cannot get down to real work until I get my blogging out of the way. Because my name is Libby, and I like to procrastinate.

I had a really fun, really awesome weekend. I found out on, like, Wednesday that I was going to be able to go to the Boston College v. Clemson game on Saturday. So, on Friday I packed up my orange, a few cute 'going out' outfits and headed to Tigertown! Friday night, the boys and Amy and Tara cooked supper, and it was DELISH!! David called Tara's potatoes, "sex in his mouth." I'm not so sure that "Scoops" would agree, but hey. To each his own. And to find out about "Scoops," you need to ask Jennifer Denton.

Anyway, we all went out on Friday night. It has been sooo long since I've been out with everyone in Clemson! And, it was literally, like, EVERYONE. Minus Shay. And Kevin. And Chris. But you get my point...even Jason, Amy, and Jake went out with us!! They took me to 356, which is the "New" Uptown. (Literally....not like "pink is the new black," but like the owners of Uptown bought out Fashion Shack and changed it into a bar called 356. Which was the address of Uptown before Jen killed it. But anyway, I digress...) 356 is pretty cool. Very chill. And the Sex on the Beach comes with a sword stuck through an orange wedge and cherry. I was super excited about the sword....until I broke it while I was chewing on it while I was talking to Kim Satterfield. Oh well. I probably would've tripped and fallen eventually and jabbed the sword through the roof of my mouth had I not broken it.

This is a picture of pKyle being PIMP laying on these really cool coffee table/foot rest/bench things that they have at 356 near the black leather couches.

While at 356, I also cock-blocked Jen at one point without really totally meaning to. Luckily, she found the guy again and continued to talk/flirt/whatever. Until David cock-blocked her again later.

Some of the biggest highlights of my night/weekend, though, had to be the people and friends I ran into. Some of them, I hadn't seen it quite some time!!! First of all, I ran into my wonderful former roommate, Catriona outside of TigerTown Tavern!! :-D Then, leaving 356, I ran into Kim Satterfield (that's when the broken sword incident occurred.) Also, while I was talking to her, the Moore twins (Reed and Chuck), whom I have not seen in AGES came up and spoke and gave me hugs!! Man, it was so good to see them!! I still remember the time when Reed Moore and his friend Russ were in mine and Jamie's bed wearing our pajamas one night when we came back from hanging out on 2nd floor Freshman year. :-D Anyway, when I left Kim and the Moore twins, I caught up with KQ!!! I wish James had come down from Charlotte to hang with her, but I'll have to catch up with my favoritest roomie of all times at another place and time, I guess!! But anyway, it was good to see KQ up from ATL!! After saying bye to her, I was finally on my way to Backstreets where all of my crew had gone. Jen, the best girl in the whole wide world, had stopped to wait for me. Iddin she sweet?! :-D

At Backstreets, we played darts. My first time really playing a real game of darts and really keeping score. I didn't even know how to keep score at darts before Friday night. I learned something else about darts that night, too: I suck at playing darts. :-D Never give a sharp object to a girl with bad aim. It was fun, though, so maybe I'll play more often and get better!

Leaving Backstreets, though, was THE highlight of Friday night, I would have to say. I wrote a couple of posts ago about Eric Lawhorn and about how much I miss him. Well, gosh golly darn gee whiz, who do you think we saw leaving Backstreets? The Big E, himself, leaving Overtime. Now. I've only seen Eric Lawhorn downtown about 6 other times. Only one of those was he in a bar drinking. The other five, he was driving through to pick up his friends. Ahem, Terence. :-D Anyway, Eric was LIT UP on Friday night, and was HILARIOUS!!! You know that term, "I'm tickled pink?" Well, I really think that if Eric wasn't black, his skin would've been pink. Baby girl pink. He was sooo giggly and happy to see me!! :-D I was the same way, but I think the alcohol made him damn right giddy. But, Eric, I'm so glad I got to see you, too, Bud!! I enjoyed my hugs!!! And here, for the readers' pleasure and entertainment, is a picture of Eric and me that night! :-D Aren't we so cute?!

But anyway, we all know what happened on Saturday at the game, so I won't go into much detail about that. (Other than the fact that I should've worn my orange pants. We're undefeated when Jen and I wear our orange pants.) But I will mention that Weston Wright is a badass for getting me a ticket. pKyle is an even bigger badass for sitting with his parents so that I could use his ticket in UB which was IN THE SHADE until the last 30 seconds of regulation!!! :-D David and I were still pretty warm, but damn if it wasn't nice to be out of the glaring sun and ridiculous heat!! I also enjoyed seeing Matt McCants...that was a very pleasant surprise!! :-D And I got to tailgate for a few minutes with Meredith and her family, which was trés cool. I always enjoy any time I get to spend with Mere. Got to see Brit, too!! :-D Mandy...I hope you're at the Temple game, girl. Got to see Chris and Carrie (and Carrie's ring...Chris done good.) AND....Adam definitely facebooked Kyle's mom!! :-D

(I have a picture, but apparently Blogger thinks I have too much stuff in this entry and won't let me add it. But, if you click on Mandy's BlogIsTheNewBlack, Adam has posted the picture on there in his guest blog!! )

Oh, and by the way, Dave's new car kicks ass!! :-D
