Best Easter Ever Edition
I’m still drunk while writing this, so if i ramble on or sound incoherent, forgive me. Ok, here’s the D/L on easter. I wake up this morning around 10. DO a quick Xanga around 11 and leave. Easter this year would not occur at my place, but at some family friends and then my aunt’s. When i arrive there, Pete and Vicky had just woken up and Dimitri, John, Hristo, Stathi, and Harry were watching TV. They hadn’t slept at all since we split up at GreekTown. Anyway, Hristo puts the first lamb on the souvla outside and we all go inside for breakfast. btw, Dimitri was still wasted from the previous night. Pete makes us breakfast (he makes really good eggs) and we eat. Dimitri had put the kokoretsi in the oven and the teasing started. Somewhere between me getting ripped on for Gina and Pete getting ripped on cause he’s rich, people started calling Hristo “kinezo.” Anyway, Hristo realizes that Dimitri hadn’t checked on the kokoretsi and say, “Re kineze, to kokoretsi tha kaei.” So Dimitri checks on the kokoretsi and when he comes back, he says to Hristo, “Re kineze, to katsiki ehi kaei.” we go outside, and yes, the katsiki was burned. So we go nuts, and start ripping on Hristo. have no fear though, we put the second katsiki on the souvla and this time pay attention to it. This company came and set up a tent outside for the guests to eat. The bartender came and so did the guests. By 3, all the guests were there, including my parents. By 3, me and the guys had eaten 3 katsikia and downed 5 bottles of red wine. Dimitri and Hristo were so drunk that they started having races on the children’s tricycles. I’ve never seen anything funnier than that. Dimitri’s tricycle didn’t do sharp turns and he crashed into a tree. We started the greek music in the car by us, and put the volume to max. By the 7th bottle of wine and the 5th katsiki, it was time for dinner. As they say in Greece, “Efaga ton kolo mou.” after dinner, we opened the 8th bottle and chilled by the car at the driveway, dancing and stuff. From all the alcohol, Dimitri and Hristo needed to piss real bad. Instead of going indoors to a bathroom, they decided to run about 100 yards over a hill to piss by the traintracks, where they were out of side. Se we do the countdown, and they were off. Two drunken guys running at full speed over a hill is a sight to see. Hristo tripped over his feet and fell flat on his face, while Dimitri ran into a bush. after some crawling and drunken jogging, they made it over the hill. The best part is: this was all on video. We changed the music in the car to Tsamika, and started doing the old school dances. By now, the house was fresh out of wine, or at least they wouldn’t tell us where the rest of it was, so we started drinking water. Desert came and we downed about 4 platters full of sweets. By this point, all the non-greek guests had come to the conclusion that greeks are psychos. At one point we got the bartender to start drinking and dancing with us. She got a bit tipsy and had a bit of trouble mixing drinks afterwards. Well, all the noise was enough to bring some uninvited neighbors over. One of them was this black guy named Tyrell something, and he plays for the Chicago Bears. We were so drunk we ignored him, while the other sober guests treated him like a king. It was such a beautiful day out today, it was like 80 degrees out. My mom said it hadn’t been this warm on easter in Chicago since 20 years ago. Anyway, by 5 we were calling cell phones in greece from our cell phones. My phone bill is gonna be jacked this month. But it was all good, cause those guys were drunk over there too. At one point, Dimitri tried calling Tommy, who was in chicago and dialed the wrong number. the phone is answered and Dimitri started talking and swearing at him in greek. 5 minutes later of Dimitri talking in greek and telling him to stop speaking english, Dimitri hands me the phone and goes “Re malaka, lathos numero patisa.” Anyway, at about 6, we left, and went to my aunt’s house for coffee (my parents drove). It was more sane over there. we stayed for an hour and then went back to Pete and Vicky’s. Most of the guests were gone, but my boys were still there, sitting on the driveway, blasting the greek music. Dimitri asked me to bring him a glass of water, so i do. He tries to drink it and misses, splashing the water all over his face. He paused, looked at us as we were laughing, and poured the remaining water on his head. John found a stash of beer (Miller Lite, i know it’s nasty, but at that point i couldn;t tell the difference between Miller Lite and Red WIne). We emptied a case of 24 beers, and now we were really wasted. Harry starts preaching in Greek and telling us how is it that Christians are the only religion on earth that uses God’s name in swearing. Stathi started singing “S’agapao Koita” by Melas. I fell asleep inside the car. I was woken up at 9. apparently, everyone was looking for me since 8. So we said our goodbyes, and went home. I am still drunk,but not as wasted as i was at 7. That nap did me some good. And that ladies and gentleman, was my easter.
