THINGS YOU LEARN IN AMSTERDAM

2009-06-16T11:46:00.004-04:00

EM: Amsterdam has been full of wise lessons.

TJ: Yes...

EM: Like, if your hostel seems too cheap, it's cause when you get to your Hostel you'll probs learn you're sharing a bed with your travel mate. What's up TJ, this bottom bunk's for both of us.

TJ: I learned that you can get malaria from the Amsterdam canals. Global warming is a downer.

EM: Ooh, and we learned how entertaining watching ProstShops is. Almost as good as watching RomCom DVDs. TJ and I chilled in the Red Light District, drinking beers on the street and watching the ladies in windows and the customers coming in and out. A great way to spend a Monday night.

TJ: Dutch prostitutes are hotties and real sports because they'll hit on anybody... and I mean ANYBODY, like a puppy.

EM: I love riding bikes. I did that in Amsterdam...FYI ya all.

TJ: The greatest lesson we learned was do not go into nor look into alleys. We met an unusual character that way, a man with crazy eyes masturbating at us while we passed by. We also had the pleasure hours later of running into our new "friend" AGAIN. This time he was lurking in the shadows doing his thing..... very important lesson learned. I believe his eyes and penis will haunt me till death.

Lesbian Holiday!

2009-06-12T16:12:00.005-04:00

TJ: So far things have been pretty head spinning. I arrived in Berlin with a man carrying three tennis rackets!

Emilz: on this kezboard the z is where the y should be if I were in US of izzay.

TJ: We had a lovely Vietnamese dinner together. (em: i've alwazs heard that the viet peeps kill at cooking german food, so naturallz I said 'what's up german currz VEGGIES, get in mz mouth.) I paid to use the potty then they gave me my money back...I guess it's because I didn't crap on the seat.

Emilz: i can't wait to dominate Berlin tomorrow of a fuckin bike! Bike tour! Suck it German historz. I'm biking the shit out of zou!

TJ: We are debating doing a daytime rave tomorrow too.

Emilz: I am a daztime rave.

Final thoughts: emilz is bossz, TJ loves BANKING!

PS-- in Berlin they have "Beach Bars." See picture above.

The Hasselhoff part II

2009-05-27T20:10:00.003-04:00

So the Germans may have their love of the Hasselhoff due to their love of garden gnomes? The resemblance is uncanny- except for the lack of nudity covered by puppies.

The most magical thing.......

2009-05-27T20:00:00.004-04:00

The best part of going to Europe is the Kinder Surprises. I can go into any gas station or convenient store and find my ultimate fat kid fix. Only in Europe can one do that! In the United States one must search high and low for the Kinder Surprise. Last time I was in Europe I had the most magical of Kinder Surprises when the one I bought revealed a Lord of the Rings toy inside. Oh the magic of the Kinder Surprise!!!!!

Berlin Ready

2009-05-18T18:44:00.004-04:00

I think we've been ready for Berlin- Nothing says Berlin more than this picture! Maybe we should bring the band back for a European Reunion Tour?

T.J.'s thoughts on the Hasselhoff.....

2009-05-16T17:34:00.003-04:00

I plan on asking the Germans I meet if David Hasselhoff really is popular in Germany. I plan to get to the bottom of this rumor. I have a feeling there's no way he can't be popular with this photo! I feel really bad for the puppy on his man-hood. I'll bet money that that puppy grew up to bite someone. Unfortunately this picture looks pretty old so that puppy is probably in doggie heaven by now.... all dogs do go to heaven as we all know.

What's up Anne Frank!

2009-05-16T17:04:00.004-04:00

Harper and I can both agree that we are very excited about seeing the Anne Frank house. It should be very inspiring/depressing but not to worry we will be in the country that created Dutch rap!

HISTORY

2009-05-16T13:07:00.014-04:00

TJ and I met when we were 18.

(staff photo, 2004)

We were camp counselors at a sleep away "band camp" in Michigan.

(kissy face, 2005)

TJ and I served as mentors and authority figures to band kids ages 14-19 during the summers of 2004 and 2005.

(evening activity, 2005)

We dressed as unicorns during the day and sang Disney songs to our campers each night.

(talent show, 2005)

The kids thought TJ and I were the coolest people ever cause we were from the east coast.

(thug life, 2005)

We worked almost 24 hours a day, and made 30 cents an hour.

(office work, 2005)

We've seen each other every summer since 2004. Basically, we're besties.

(friendship, 2005)

TJ and I are going to Europe together this summer as part of our "annual visit."

Plus, I love a Red Light district.

ANNE FORGOT TO SEND US WEDDING INVITATIONS

2009-05-16T01:49:00.007-04:00

My friend Anne Sullivan is getting married. Yay Anne!

I know this cause I've been stalking her via this "Wedding Blog."

(Anne with her fiancee)

TJ and I worked with Anne during the summer of 2004.

We totally weren't two of the 200 people invited to Anne's wedding, but we love Anne and wish her the best.

Anne, I hope your reception is glorious and you dance like you're at an All State mixer!

TJ and I are going to Europe, and are keeping this friendship blog.

(Me with my travel buddy)

TJ and I'll be doing hella shots in each country we visit to celebrate Anne's wedding. That's the best gift one can give. The gift of sh-lutty binge drinking.
