weekend update well i wund up not having to work saturday night, cool by me, that started the weekend fun earlier as far as I was concerned. so julie, her brothers and I went to the chalet for acouple. then we all rode back to milwaukee. when we stopped at the usual rest stop julie and i couldn't um, "do" what had become alittle bit as a tradition there, lol. i don't think her brothers would've gone for that, lol.
we had dinner at their mom's restaraunt (guess who got suckered into doing about an hour of prep work, lol). then after I put some stuff in Julie's place. Julie had one of her "moods" and well, lol. that orange tank top does wonders, lol. her dad had me try this mexican beer, I can't even prounce it let alone try and spell it. it did say it had 9.4% alcohol in it, whoa..it was a different taste than what I was used to but it was good. I asked how he was able to get that from Mexico to here and since besides owning alot of real estate, he does the business end of the resteraunt so he made a pitch to put the beer as a "featured item", thus getting shipped and paying less for it, LOL! yeah it was a featured item alright, featured in their refridgerator, hahahahaha. her dad I swear when he starts joking around sounds like jackie chan ( he is full blooded japanese). Like watch the movie rush hour, and the outtakes at the end of the movie? Her dad does some of the same shit, cracking me up al over the place. he got me good when he said "i know more english than you know japanese and I not from this country, ra ra ra ra(hewas dancing around pointing at himself which was funny to watch), and then he says "and that how, how you say, how i roll jack how you like that". everyone was laughing and my face was so red from laughing so hard.
we go to the bar where they ad karaoke. I found out that julie's dad owns the building the bar's in. we didn't know it until the bartender heard me talking about her dad to julie and her brothers. "You know Mr. Lee"? I smiled and said "I'd better, I'm dating his daughter here and these two are his sons". "I had no idea his family came in here, you two have been coming in for a few weeks now, I'll be right back". he came back and gave each of us a business card it had a star on it and he wrote on the back of each one before giving it to us. our bar tab was cancelled on the spot. as long as we come into that place we eat and drink for free. I told him that we didn't come in here to milk him out of drinks. he explained that julie's dad bought the building and renewed their lease at a better rate than what they had before, so he's more than happy to show appreciation any way he can. I made julie and her brothers laugh when i said "you don't know how much we all can drink". he didn't care. the place was packed and he said he didn't mind it he looked at it as good business over bad. I said "okay, you might come to regret that". lol.
their chicken tenders w/ bbq sauce was good and they have awesome fucking fries. I decided to try and be easy on the bar owner. I asked him "what beer do you have that doesn't sell well? I'll drink that to help you get rid of it". Spaten lager. i was like WHAT!? you have that? the german bar in the dells has that. had 8.4% alcohol in it. I said bring that shit on.julie's brothers tried it and they liked it so we all just kept drinking that while julie enjoyed her long island iced teas and winning at the video slots. how she wins at them fucking things all the time I just don't know.
Julie decided to sing "Don't Cha" by the pussycat dolls, oh my god!, she was rubbing up on me, giving me 'the look', my face turned so red her brothers were laughing as their sister was driving me crazy. It's alright, I got even with her by showing my own affection to her when I sang "vehicle" by ides of march and looked right in her eyes and sang "great god in heaven you know i love you", then kissed her. She had tears in her eyes later when i sang "more than words" and "waiting for a girl like you".
Sunday we had a bbq in the backyard, family and me. Julie's mom maria wasn't feeling that good saturday but she was doing very well sunday, watching me catch jabs from Julie's father and I actually said it I said "this is nice, I'm getting wisecracked by a guy who sounds like jackie chan". they all busted up laughing and I quickly apologized to her dad but he waved it off. we drank, ate and played horseshoes. I'm pretty good at it, well, was, until julie became my partner and couldn't get anywhere near the pole. i'm glad she's a good pool player, lol. I had more of that mexican beer and then I went and got some steel reserve beer, which is a local beer made in milwaukee that has 8.1% alcohol in it.I had her dad try it and I think he's getting addicted, lol. I had hooked up a cd burner to julie's computer saturday and since she had downloaded some kid frost tunes, I burned them to a cd along with a hous eof pain song i like (fed up, both versions), and acouple eminem tunes i like. kid frost is a hispanic rapper I like.
the first song was Frost's version of "ain't no sunshine" and as soon as it hit, her vrothers recognized it and were suprised knew about it. his version of "lowrider" i love alot too. I went and sat with Maria and wanted to spend some time talking with her, see how she was really doing, etc. she got serious with me about me being with julie. she said "i know you my daughter's white boy, and I give you shit about being her white boy. i see how you treat her...i love you for that. you show her that not all men were loike her last boyfriend. you give respect. repect go far in this family and you earning it. you just don't want her for the sex, i see it i see your eyes, you may not say with your mouth but your eyes say alot. we weren't sure about her being with a white boy but you do good, real good with her". she squeezed my hand and thanked me for wanting to be with julie.
so it made for a nice weekend. went into work tonight and found out that the suggestions I ran past the owner are being used. rumour has it I may be promoted, from them not getting another assistant managet so they have two, to just making me full time kitchen manager. will find out more tomarriw (tuesday) on this. guess when you know your shit like I do, good shit like this happens.
