when the lights go out in the city

nothing reunites two roomates after six weeks of seperation like a power outage in 106 degree heat. clothes were removed, stories were told, candles were lit, beer was spilled.
in similar fashion, nothing bonds three co-workers like a roadtrip to appleton, wisconsin. pretty sure we covered all the elements of a great roadtrip-- medical emergancies, emotional catharsis, tornado warnings, wrong turns, brat fries, cheese curds, outlet malls, cornfields, horses, very tall midwestern boys, dancing, lemonade and vodka, itunes crafted playlists, rootbeer floats, a run-in with the law, continental breakfast and tear-jerker nuptuals.
