Only the first part of that really applies, but I had to finish the LCD Soundsystem reference. :)
Exhibit A: Bergemann in her birthday girl hat
Phew, back in Denver after a whirlwind tour of the Right Coast. Meetings in Boston followed by hanging w/ the C-Berg in Bedford Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, New York. Big ups to Bergemann for showin' a guy a great time, and not even making him sleep in the streets at the end of the day!
Highlights:
- Getting a citation for drinking beer on Crystal's stoop the first day I get there. Bad. Ass.
- All the food! We had Mexican, Japanese, Indian, Polish, Cuban, Italian (OK, it was pizza, but it came free with the beer at the Crocodile Lounge, so shut up), Chinese, and cookie dough. Mmm... cookie dough.
- New York. What a spectacular place. There's 25 things that are unique and great hidden on every city block. Gotta find 'em all!
- People. Not only did John Harris come down and hang with us a bit (always a good time), but I also got to meet lots of Crystal's New York friends and one of Dan's high school friends. Good peeps to a (wo)man. As if that wasn't enough, Drew and John came down on Friday and made us drink an unintelligent amount. It's our ranch, and it's our home.
- Crystal. One of the nicest, most fun, most willing to eat cookie dough in raw form girls I know. You rock, Bergemann.
Lowlights:
- Getting a citation for drinking beer on Crystal's stoop. Which means it's now more problematic to drink beers on Crystal's stoop, which would be the worst tragedy ever to befall New York if 9/11 hadn't, you know, mainly happened there.
- Not still being there.
Here's to August, a.k.a. the Triumphant Return.

wow you are awesome! On the food, you forgot good old U S of A BBQ, complete with Duff Beer:)
You also forgot to mention how much you rule and how amazingly great you made my birthday week. To anyone reading this---if you want to feel super special and happy on your birthday, try to get Wes to hang out with you as much as possible. Guaranteed Win.
Come back soon:)
I second all of Crystal's nice things, and would posit one addition/amendment -
John and I successfully drank a whole bottle of whiskey on Crystal's stoop between 3 AM and 5 AM, whilst calling everyone we knew and eating fried chicken (John) and french fries (me) from the fried chicken place on the corner. We even got crack offered to us by a guy on a bike!
You guys weren't there - busy "sleeping" or something - but I just had to mention it.
