Been a weird one. Among other things-

Capturing a spider and trying to give it to your front office lady as a gift is sure to put you on her E36 M3 list. Offering her another one in truce- especially when it was bigger than the last one, does not help.

There was a wedding at the brewery tonight. I knew it was going to be weird when one of the band members instruments was a box, that he sat on and made drumming noises with. I had a great conversation with the caterer, who has a gti. He likes the ms3. He roasts a killer pig. Watching steam come out of the pigs butt is funny.

Turns out, it was a gay wedding. There were a lot of very eccentric drunks, some normal family types, and the husbands parents. Old man gay dude had the most legit coat ever. It was sueded. It had lots of stitching on it. I'm fairly sure he knifed Hank Williams for it.

I had the nagging thought, because of this wedding, and what typically happens after a wedding- there's a whole lot of buttsex happening in St Paul tonight. Good thing there's a sex shop right down the road.

They're apparently putting in one of the licensed grows from the new mn pot laws in one of the other buildings on our site. That will make a brewery, a pot farm, and a distillery- in the same parking lot. I may move in.

Last but not least- I watched the cops bust the ice cream man on my way to work. I just wanted to get my ninja turtle on- but lights and sirens supercede me.

Doesn't the ice cream man sell pot? Like pretty much exclusively?

This one probably did. It was the sketchiest ice cream truck ever. Like you know the luring videos GI would put on and be all "don't get in that truck this dude is fixing to spit roast you"- that was this ice cream truck. Why the genius decided to drive it past the police station (which is across the street from the aforementioned nirvana for substance enjoying) is beyond me.

The spider thing sounds like something I'd do.

It sounds very much as if the "box drum" was the most normal part of your evening. It is called a "cajon" and is thought to originate in Peru. Meinl and others make them, and you can even buy them in kit form and build them yourself, Grassroots style! I put one together a few weeks ago and the kids enjoy it.

No, but it did look a LOT like the van from the first one, except white.

Yup. The Meinl kit comes with a snare. Most I've seen have a hole, typically on the back side opposite the "tapa" or thin plywood playing surface.

Spiders for the front desk? I doubt you're going to hell as it doesn't exists (Outside a Country musics festival), but you should probably have earned yourself a trip to HR

I'm guessing he meant "GI Joe". With a name like Duke I would have thought you'd have figured that one out.
