The lady will have the schnitzel...

Team Kablooey faced a set back last night. Losing 15-8. We just couldn't get it going early. It may have something to do with never being able to start on time because of the mercurial nature of where people put their fields. We played on Field #7 both nights this week, but there positions were in completely different places. Certain people when asked if they could move their field took the attitude we were here first and we're too lazy to move four cones. I just wanted to punch someone.

Enough of that. Rode home with King and Akira, picking up the high school couple, JL and his girl, out front of Frontera in the mini-van. (Not really h.s. kids, but they were dressed up and come on we picked them up in a mini-van). We then went to Darwin's. Where BK ordered by saying, "We will both have Turbodogs," while pointing at me. The waitress replied with "Are you a couple?" BK and I then felt the need to declare our love for one another. (I may have even broken out into song, as I am apt to do). Further confusing the waitress I was forced to order JL's drink because he wanted a martini (Wednesday's means $10 slabs of ribs and $5 martinis at Darwin's) , but he didn't know how to order one and the waitress's first suggestion was a cosmo. (Oh and JL and his girl both got carded). I of course could not allow JL to order a cosmo if for no other reason then even I would get tired of making fun of him for his lack of masculinity if he made such an order. (However, it would have to be done. We also made the necessary appletini joke, yeah Zach Braff).

This whole exchange would have been the funniest thing going on, but then I noticed JL had a Starbucks card. Akira and BK chimed in with calls of "you finally made it." This would have been funny enough, but then his girl(really need a better name) volunteered that it was an award for being employee of the week. As she said this, there was a sudden look of recognition of what the imparting of this information meant to JL. You can all imagine the hard time we gave JL for this little nugget of information. Then, JL's girlfriend forgetting what had just transpired five minutes ago mentioned it was actually the second time he had won the award. Again, almost too easy. (All of this was actually said by JL's girlfriend in what can only be classified as a proud sincerity that was cute and endearing). It still didn't stop the jokes.

Baching it tonight as the Wife plays golf tonight. The Wife was already talking trash about the course and its lack of difficulty. We'll have to see if the crucible of competition breaks her spirit. (The Wife is actually a really good golf player i.e. destroys me).

So what was JL's martini? Shaken, stirred, gin/vodka, # of olives?
