On Friday, Jason was planning on getting Jeff and I and our girlfriends together to have a relaxing evening of RISK and poker at his house.  I was looking forward to it because it isn’t often that I get to hang out with Jeff and even less do I get to hang out with Jason.  Friday finally came and my server decided to crash.  Being that this server is hosting my email (my primary email at that), I needed to get it up and running right away.  From 5:30 till about 9:00 I backuped and reformatted the server, getting it to a stable condition in which email started flowing again.  I didn’t mess with anything else that needed setup, such as file permissions for document storage or the tape backup software.  I decided to leave it and go to Jason’s.

Upon my arrival at Jason’s, Jeff and Ashley were leaving.  I was a little disappointed by that, I figured they would stay a while longer, but apparently they both had an early day that day.  Sometimes I’m not sure I am getting the truth though.  It seems like Jeff has more excuses when he is with Ashley.  It like she doesn’t fit in all that well with Jeff and his friends and because of that, she is only open (acts herself) with Jeff when others aren’t around.  So to get time when she is herself, Jeff and her need to leave earlier than normal from outings so they have some time together by themselves.  Like I said, this isn’t a definite, I’m just speculating here.  If that is the case though, I hope that Ashley can work up to being herself when others are around.  Especially because they have a definite future together and I’m afraid of loosing my friend.

Anyway, after Jeff and Ashley left, it was just me and my Amanda, and Jason and his Amanda.  I figured we would stay for a few hours, maybe till 1 or so and then head home.  Well, it was so much fun being there with them and talking with them that we all stayed up talking until about 5 in the morning.  At this point, I was too tired to drive home, granted I could have powered through, but Jason and Amanda offered for us to use the pull-out bed.  We took them up on the offer.  The next morning Jason made pancakes, really freakin thick pancakes.  I swear, like at least a half an inch thick, if not thicker.  It was a great time.  I am looking forward to doing it again hopefully soon.
