The House Warning Party

Hello!!!

It's Sunday Morning.... 9 hours since everyone evacuated my new apartment and I just wanted to share a few memories from the night last.

Was I responsible for getting everyone drunk?

Hmmm.... Well maybe...

1.    I uh, started the night out by making everyone these drinks called "The Hulk". They consist of Hennessey and Hypnotiq over ice, and you know it's good when it turns the color of the Hulk. Well, that's a lot of liquor, but it's delicious. (and apparently the original reason i started drinking Hennessey, didn't know that... huh.)

Consequences --- All the guests got pretty drunk (Josh told me twice) .... not too much damage though, thank god for the complimentary water bottles I put out...

2.   And Anne Marie came over asked me to drink out of the HALF YARD GLASS OF ALE and I was like that is Gabe's and he should drink out of it.

Consequences ---  Ask Gabe.

Some other Random Memories...

- I gave some pre-teen/kids a tour of the apartment. They came up from the neighborhood and wanted to party, but they only got the tour.

- I did a Vodka shot with the Russian neighbors. (I never knew the Vodka thing was really real.) Cool guys, they were just chilling.

- All the people that showed up for like half a second and then disappeared. Did they only show up for the complimentary water bottles? I wonder...

- Being told that I TOTALLY F%*^&# UP putting up all my poster frames. That may have been the funniest moment of the night for me.

WILL - "God, people need to stop bumping into this frame and knocking off."

Hutson - "No Will, you totally F&*&%#$ UP putting the frame."

Will - "No the poster frame is totally warped."

Hutson pulls the frame off.

Hutson - "No, you see these brackets don't go on the wall, they go on the frame."

Will visualizes how it's supposed to go.

Will - "..."

Will hangs his head. Starts laughing to himself. "I didn't know, I didn't know...."

EVERYONE LAUGHS.

- Running out of Toilet Paper. First the main bathroom ran out. Then I took the last of it from Gabe's bathroom. Then his bathroom didn't have any, but I was advised by some girls that it was okay to put tissues on top of the toilet lid so that they can use that. Then Gabe being like WHAT THE?!?! And then GUY TOAM going out and getting TP for everyone. THANK YOU GUY!

- "Planet Earth" playing in the background... The little Ducks jumping out of the tree in slow motion was a particular highlight, especially since 50 Cent's "In Da Club" was playing. Awesome.

- Giving Anne Marie a test of her cognitive skills, before she left. She seemed okay and I've seen Anne Marie not okay... she was okay...

-Guy spending the last half hour of the party addressing Gabe as "Drunk Gabe." --- As in "Okay Drunk Gabe... you need to let Will clean."

- The responsibility of all the DD's. Thanks guys... without you I'd probably be kicking people out as we speak.

- Oliver showing up, making his own musical playlist for everyone...

- Getting yelled at for having Avril Lavigne's "Girlfriend" on my playlist... (I like that song dammit! No Hating!)

- Josh had his VIDEO CAMERA!!! Oh dear... I don't want to know what he caught... - For a Second I felt like I was on  J.J. Abram's television shows or "CloverField".

- The popularity of the LOVE SAC! Go out and get yourself a LOVE SAC! You won't regret it.

- Cleaning up at 1:45. Cleaning up at 8:00 AM. Doing the Cinderella thing. i.e. scrubbing the floors, (I sang a little song.) Cleaning up at 10:00 Am. I love cleaning!!!

- I hid the SPEAKER VOLUME remote from people at the end of the night. People would keep turning the music up WAY too loud and I'd sneak around and turn it down. This dance went on for about a half hour.

And seriously I just want to thank everyone for showing up last night! I hope ya'll had fun. I did. I also want to thank everyone who brought something. And everyone who brought someone!

Oh, and Corey I'll hit you back for that Hennessey.

Will & Rachel Conversation #5

Will is at Von's Grocery Store ordering a sandwich.

His Phone Rings.

Will: Hey Rachel.

Rachel: So I just saw your twin and he was 70 pounds overweight and he was really ugly.

Will: What? I couldn't hear that too well.

Rachel: Will, I just saw your twin, he looks like you, but he's really really overweight and he was really ugly.

Will: So you're saying I shouldn't gain any weight or I'll be really ugly.

Rachel: No, I'm saying you shouldn't gain 70 pounds ---

Will: Or I will be ugly ---

Rachel: Yes.

Will: He looked like me?

Rachel: Yes, exactly like you, but he was really fat and ugly.

Will: So I shouldn't gain ANY weight.

Rachel: Yes, No, Whatever... Just don't gain any weight.

How do I use this thing...

You just have to hit a few keys... maybe one key at a time... ugh...

So... I've been A.W.O.L.

Like really A.W.O.L.

Like "Will why do you even have a blog anymore?" A.W.O.L.

What does A.W.O.L. mean?

Well, I moved. I painted the place. I built furniture. My thumb hurts. I finished the Super Important Crazy Disney/Bruckheimer Sizzle Piece for a Licensing Show. I made it to my class, but did not actually term in the final assignment, so I will not get a grade, and if I do, it will start with Effe... and there is some other stuff I did too... but I forgot a lot of it already.

But.... well I'd just like to thank Everyone who helped us move, and helped me get through this stressful, but not bad, period. Here we go...

Aaron
Brian Armes.
Brother.
Coffee.
Corey.
Gabe.
God.
Guy.
Hutson.
Jason Carter "The Spicy"
Jeremy Cook.
Josh.
Lindsey.
Sara O.
The Editors I'm working with.
"The Runaways"
Tracy x2

Man, I'm totally forgetting someone or people or something.

Anyway. Things are starting to simmer down a little bit. We're still on Medium Hot. But we ain't boiling.

Now it's time for the fiesta. If you're around we're doing a housewarming party at my new place on JUNE 28th.

Will & Rachel Conversation #4

Rachel: Hey Will.

Will: Rachel!

Rachel: How's your new place?

Will: What are you doing?

Rachel: Good. How's your new place?

Will: It's great. I love it.

Rachel: That's great. I wanted to know. You know, since you don't blog anymore, I had no idea.

Will: ...

Rachel: Yeah, I thought so.

Jorge had a good month

Many of you don't know Jorge Avellan ... well that is too bad. Because Jorge is awesome. He's just one of those people that you come in contact with and know... really know... that he's special... and not just for his magical ability to make any piece of clothing look good, but also because, well you'll notice that first. But then, eventually you'll notice how damn happy he is... and positive... and how everything good seems to happen to him... and yet he is so down to earth and real that it's incredible.

Well I'm glad to say that Jorge had a particularly good month. Not only did Jorge become a citizen finally... but he also won an Emmy. Jorge's family came over from Nicaragua when he was very young... and for the life of me I really thought he had become a citizen by now... but eh. And over the last year he created a thirty minute show on "Immigrating to Canada (in Espanol)" and how there is the belief that if you go to illegal immigrants went to Canada they'd be made a citizen... well If I'm correct, they could go there and get some rights, but a few months later would then get deported back to where they came from. It was some scandalous business, and Jorge got to the bottom of it, and for that he won an Emmy.

So here's a picture of good old Jorge. Copy and paste the link.. you can also go to univision detroit to catch his nightly news clips. If he ever comes into town I will shepherd him around like the celebrity he is...

Well done! Jorge. Keep on Truckin'

The Old Days and the New Days

Things are busy.... they've been busy.... and they are still busy...

We painted the New Apartment last weekend. From Dawn till after sunset.... we painted or did paint-esque activities, like taping or pulling off tape. I can't wait to move in... just wish I had a little more time to get there.

OH and Then My Corolla died... Grr... Arg... It's like having a piece of you gone... losing a piece of you... anyway...

So, today I bought a new car. The 2008 Honda Fit -- Sport --

I'd like to thank Gabriel Reiter, Daniel Morfesis, and Joshua Rosenfield, for suggesting, talking up, and helping to make this happen. I'd also like to thank all the other people who were very supportive in the process, including my brother Joe, without him saying F$&%^ IT just buy the car, I'd be rollerblading to work tomorrow. So guys, THANK YOU!

Here is a pictures of the link

It is good. I really like it. It is fun. Hopefully, I will get the chance to enjoy it pretty good. Gotta run, got some work to do tonight.

Peace!
