Three Wise Men Are NOT Wise....


Feelin' 21 Link Up
just like i said yesterday.  i can't believe i am going to be 27 soon.
i seriously should still be like 21.  ok, i can settle with like 23.  but 27!  how in the world??
so i had to dust off a couple of disks and find my 21st birthday pictures.
shit, i might have even had to go back to myspace and find some.
ayi - enough with the pity party cassie.  let's get to it.
my 21st birthday was on a saturday - i mean, how perfect!
honestly the whole weekend was really good!!
i remember i was living in waterloo at the time.  that friday night at midnight we walked down to the bar where my cousin jessi was with my aunt brenda and uncle denny and my first shot was for my great grandpa kern.  a nice shot of blackberry brandy.
i think i felt it go all the way to my toes.
even maria was there ready to party!
nothing got too crazy that night, or at least i don't think it did.....
the next morning we were geared up to meet some friends and a bunch of people i work with at Fast Eddies to start the birthday festivities!
of course i had the 21 shots birthday book!  and my first shot was bought by a co-workers of mine and it was a Three Wise Men, Jim, Jack and Jose.
holy smokes - after that someone should have told me to go home....
i don't remember much of fast eddies.  i just know there were a lot of shots...
i do think i tried climbing up on a table or something before we left and getting yelled at.
so yeah, we booked it out of there.
i am REALLY good at passing out in cars after i have been drinking.  like not even 5 minutes into the trip i am head back, mouth open, gone.  ha.  and needless to say that "power nap" i got back to red bud was GREAT!  when we got to town we headed to the V were a party bus was waiting for us.
again - you know you are old when the V was a hoping place to meet for your 21st birthday.
my smile was getting bigger, my stance was getting wider, my outfit was more and more of a hot mess.  ayi!
but we loaded up the party bus and headed to of course - RENAULT.
or as katie and kathy say, we passed the caves. lol.  lol.  lol.
i believe at renault i ate a piece of pizza off the floor.
AND lived to tell about it.  oh my gosh.  horrid.
leg guitar dancing occurred quite a lot.....  and i have no idea why.  lol.
and of course MORE shots....
we then headed to lisa's and next thing i knew randy had tied a trash bag to my shirt.
ha - that's never a good thing.......
and i believe that's water....
this is probably when kacie and amanda decided to take over and finish my shot book for me.
which was probably a REALLY good idea.  i mean where did those glasses even come from?
i think i made it to like 16 shots or something.
regardless it was 16 too many....
i believe at one point we even took the party bus to my grandma and grandpa's house.
where my bff informed me that she once totally did you know what in their driveway one time.  bahahaha.
whoops - sorry gma and gpa!
i think the next bar we went to you could find me sitting at the table looking something like this...
hair up, head in my hands, people feeding me water....
i don't remember if they allowed me to ride my own party bus to the next bar or if it literally just dropped me off at my mom's house.  but i woke up the next morning completely clothed and not feeling too hot.
whoops!
all in all it was an awesome birthday!
but i can tell you one thing, i have not taken a Three Wise Men shot STILL to this day.....
and i don't advise anyone to either.

It was me and Jane and we were in the car behind the bus. We were a bit freaked out by the caves on that dark road. We didn't know where you IL people were taking us.

I remember you eating the pizza at the bar with the bras on the ceiling. I really thought I was going to have to take mine off and throw it on up there to leave that bar. hahah

Oh and when EVERYONE on the bus got off the bus for pee break. Oh don't mind Jane & I back here with our headlights shining all of you hahahahah SORRY! creepers in the back.

I may have gagged a little bit even just reading about the three wise men shot. Nothing good ever comes out of that shot! ha ha

Ugh! I do remember finishing your shot book and then puking in Brent's mom and dads yard! Such a good night :)

I remember that night and there always has to be a reason to get that blackberry brandy no wonder dad liked it cold.
