It doesn't matter if they're gay or straight, men still can't plan worth a damn.

Last Saturday, Melissa, her friend Jana, and I had plans to meet up with her other friend Levi (and his friends) and have a fun party/bonfire in the mountains.

We should have known that straight men could not adequately plan an event.

I met up with Melissa and Jana around six only to find out that Levi had not called to tell us what was going on (you know, simple details like, where we needed to meet them and such). We hung out at Jana's for about half an hour when he called telling us we needed to drive to the mouth of the canyon where he'd pick us up. Oh, and we should be there between 8 & 8:30 because he needed to go home and shower.

What?! We thought. That was NOT in the original plans.

So we basically had 2 hours to kill (as it would have taken us 1 hour to get to the mouth of the canyon).

We knew we'd need supplies for the night if it was already turning out poorly. So, we stopped at the 7-11.
While Melissa and I purchased some choice alcoholic beverages, Jana bought condoms in the hopes of "getting lucky."

We were then on our way. 10 minutes into our road trip, Levi called. The party in the mountains was cancelled as it was raining. But, we were going over to his friends house to hang out and that would be fun, he assured us.

Yeah, it wasn't.

Road trips rock!


We hung out at this guy's house for a few hours, drank some and got bored. While Levi read a magazine, his friend read the newspaper. So much for a fun time. Eventually, we just left because we were so bored we couldn't take it anymore.

Lesson learned: Don't leave event planning to the boys. They'll just screw it up. And, it doesn't matter if they're gay or straight; they all suck at it (as you will read in my next post).

2 things you gotta say:
