In case further confirmation was needed of Dave's and my mutual inability to keep dates straight, we have gotten it this weekend.;-) A fortunate turn of events stemming from seemingly mysterious baking behaviour revealed that the Poker night with Brian and Nathalie was in fact a different night than the Mr. Universe competition. (She was baking for the party on a Thursday, thus casting into extreme doubt my understanding that the party was on the Saturday.)
So, a fabulous time was had at Poker on Friday -- so much so, that Dave and I didnt make it home until the next afternoon. ;-) Not too much money was lost overall, and as more alcohol was consumed, there was much enjoyment of Dance Dance Revolution. The potluck (which Kiwis call, "Bring a Plate") was also a considerable success, as the Caesar salad was well-received. One partygoer came a little too close to an untimely death by persistently making guesses as to the secret ingredients -- he just didn't buy that it really was "love". Or lots of garlic... sometimes it's hard 
to tell the difference. ;-)The evening wound up around 3AM with an enthusiastic though inebriated round of Karaoke Revolution, which is always a hoot, and later a sing-along courtesy of both Brian's and Dave's guitar skills. It was a good way to wrap up a fun night.
...But the weekend of madness wasn't over yet!

No one does Willie Nelson quite like you, dad. Maybe not even Willie. (I just thank my lucky stars if you're not singin Patsy Cline!) ;-)
Me too, no Patsy Cline for that brother of mine..(I wouldn't want him to show me up if I came over there to belt out a little Patsy for you guys!) I'm looking forward to Weekend of Mayhem, Part Two.
