What a trip, what a day. We made it to Boulder around 10:15 and after parking near Jag’s place were in an Uber headed toward one of the frat houses. The house was a broken down, 15 room Victorian that Jag said was worth something like $13 million dollars. Inside it was disgusting. None of the moms would use the bathrooms, ha. As soon as we arrived Jag seemed to know everyone. In the backyard there was a banner which was a bed sheet that was painted welcoming parents to the weekend. Soon the place filled up. Loud music, hung over students and parents filled the area and slowly woke up from their overindulgence the night before. Scantly clad girls, or I guess young women, were everywhere. Lori said it’s like they all were dressing up as hookers for Halloween. In reality, that’s just how college girls dress these days.
We met lots of good kids that Jag introduced us to and some parents. After a couple hours we walked over to the game. The game was so so for the first half and then the Buffs pulled away for a victory. The best part of the whole game was the atmosphere in the beginning with the band and Ralphie the Buffalo running on the field to start the game. I told Lori it was like an old Fred Mc Murray Disney movie we used to watch on Sunday nights when we were kids. We left the game early and walked to the car weaving between intoxicated kids, and some parents and headed to Pearl Street to go to Pizza Locale which is a top Italian place owned by a long time friend and client of mine. We had a nice lunch and it gave us a chance to talk which you couldn’t do at the game. Jag is so well adjusted and on top of his game. After lunch at 4:30 we headed to Whole Foods to get some food for us for today and we turned Jag loose with his own cart to get what ever groceries he wanted. $600 later we headed to his place.
When we walked in it looked almost as bad as the frat house. It needed a deep cleaning and I guess Jag’s roommate is pretty messy according to him. And that’s saying a lot! So he began to put his food away while Lori went into Mama Bear cleaning mode. I took bags of trash and cardboard boxes to the trash chute by the elevator. In no time at all Lori had the place looking like it was when they moved in. I moved the car from the basement and bought 3 orders of Mac and Cheese from a food truck outside. I brought two home and left Jag one. Mine was jalapeno and really good. There was another party at the frat house at 9 last night but Jagger was clearly tired from the night before and decided not to go. I think most people skipped it. We had a really nice day and finally pulled in around 9 pm at home. It was a long day. Ty was emptying the dishwashers and had been riding horses earlier in the day and then was at the climbing gym.
Today James and Marty are coming over to watch the game. Lori of course is making us some fantastic meal. James texted from his plane yesterday if we knew where he could get a covid PCR test and get the results back by Tuesday as he’s flying to Canada for a deer hunt. Lucky he texted when he did as it took Lori some work to get it done. She had to call in a few favors for this one. She’s already made a cheesecake and has it in the oven this morning. Think we’re having bison tenderloins.
Tomorrow Jag and I are headed down to Tommy’s to go to sushi! Can’t wait as Tom and I had fun last time and Jag is excited to join us. Lori wants to go to but has to work clinic. Ty will be back in school. Fun day, we miss Jag and he misses us and it was great to hang with him. Oh to be back in college. I told Tommy it was like a Will Ferrell movie. God Bless.
