Road Trippin'

A somewhat relevant video to this post...plus Meg loves her some RHCP:

Hello Friends,
By now you have probably noticed a pattern, Wilsorelli (our name for this post) has this fantastic habit of lying when our next post will appear.  This is just to keep you guessing and yearning for that MegTom moment.  Or it may just be a consequence of our inability to get anything done on time.  Perhaps once these STUPID LAME AWFUL ANNOYING DEMONTOR-SOUL-SUCKING TEDIOUS INHUMANE YET TO BE COMPLETED APPS are finished we will be on time.  Yeah...right?

As we mentioned in our prior post, Wilsorelli actually left the apartment.  Yes, believe it or not we packed our bags and headed Californi-way (South Park, anyone?) and landed in Ann Arbor Michigan.  Okay well, actually we have been DYING to see our wonderful and dear friend, Elia "Corn" Wheat (names have been altered to protect the innocent from Internet stalkers).  Elia is a super-genius and is doin' her grad school thang at University of Michigan and it just happened that her fall break coincided with homecoming weekend at Michigan.  This meant oodles of fun.  We only wish the rest of the Wheats were there!

Okay, so we need to take a minute and reward to make y'all appreciate how we got there.  So a very dear friend was heading out to the area and offered us a ride.  Being the poor graduates we are Wilsorelli happily accepted this request.  After a 8.5 hour drive, Wilsorelli came a-knockin' at Elia's door at exactly 3:18 in the AM.  To make things better, we decided to surprise her by not letting her know that Thomas was coming.  And what a shock it was when Elia found Thomas lying in fetal position in the trunk in the wee hours of the morning when Meghan asked her to take out the rest of the luggage.  Yes indeed, you too can have your very own portable, trunk-sized, traveling Thomas for a mere price of a grand piano plus shipping and handling.

After a quick toast to friendship and reunions, Wilsorelli and Elia collapsed only to have a fun-filled rest of the weekend.  Highlights included being in a true college town during Homecoming, witnessing the beauty of Meijer supermarkets and their superfantastic beer selection, drinking $4 dolla Long Island Iced Teas outside in 50 degrees Fahrenheit weather, Tom and Elia browsing the entire Ikea catalog for an hour and a half while discussing the merits of chairs on walls, Meg and Elia watching U-Michigan lose their homecoming game to Iowa (tough loss) while sampling a Leinie's variety pack, the three of us falling asleep on the futon while attempting to watch the best of Jimmy Fallon SNL, and....the best....are you ready for this one????  Are you sure????  Okay well, here it goes:

Eating Lucky Charms on the futon for two hours while watching RUGRAAAAATTTTSSS including Reptar on Ice (Reptar, Reptar, gotta find that Reptar) and our personal favorite, the one where Chuckie swallows the watermelon seed.  Please feel free to comment on this point.

It was an awesome trip but Wilsorelli was very sad to say goodbye to our dear friend, no wait scratch that, she's knows too much about us, family member.  Until we create some mischief again, here are some pics of our journey.  Don't forget to SPOT THE FANNY PACK!  Yes, it IS back...

Stay tuned in the next week for our new and upcoming post... 

Love n' Stuff,

Wilsorelli

It was so hard to say goodbye.
We spotted this bumper sticker outside the bar, Good Time Charley's, while waiting for our Long Island Iced Teas...

No caption will do this picture justice <3.

  2. Every time I walk by that deer, I think of you two. I don't it's fair for me to participate in spot the fanny pack this time because I was a part of the shenanigans, but I did count. Wheat Power!
