Dead Bodies and Raw Fish

This weekend was chocked full of cool stuff, so I thought I would sort through the most exciting parts again.
Friday night I had all the intentions of staying in, cause I knew the next two days would be busy. I didn't stay out late or anything, but Todd and I went to Toon's and downed a few beers before I returned home to watch the last of the Ali fight. Man, that girl could knock out most men.
Saturday I went to the museum with my friend, Leslie, to see Body Worlds. This exhibit was completely mind blowing. I thought I might get a bit queezy or sick by looking at cadavers for an hour, but it was quite the opposite. The human body is an amazing machine, and this exhibit shows in detail just how miraculous we are. It was amazing to see parents there with their little kids, teaching them about each part of their bodies by using the exhibit. The two most impressive pieces to me were a horse complete with rider, and a pregnant woman. The rider of the horse held his brain in one hand and the horse's in the other while the horse reared up on its hind legs. The reclining woman with the baby inside of her almost made me cry from the unexpected beauty I found in it. I encourage everyone to go see it.
Saturday night I went with Sarah to the Bottom Lounge to see the Siderunners. We drank quite a few good beers as we bobbed and danced to the hardcore badassery that the Siderunners become when you plug them in. They had Sarah come up and sing back up to Sappy on a true old country tune, "Fat Bottom Girls". We left all smiles and happy. I will miss her when I leave.
Sunday night I met with Charlie Don't Surf at Hey Sushi!. I have had some excellent Sushi before, but this took it to another level all together. Yummmmmm. Epicurian bliss and then to bed.
