Josh's summary of Day 2...

Quote:
Eric is still asleep and may well be for some time. I do suspect that after he's gotten sleep, and has watched the shows, he will stop by - but it might not be for a week or so - guy needs to catch up with a lot of people in his real life first.

DAY TWO (btw, i am also shocked with how much i managed to remember):

This one is pretty easy to summarize briefly -

After sleeping no more than 3 hours, we got ready for the day - we met up with Jess/Dean/Tucker and decided to go to Universal studios since it was on the grounds of the hotel. As we entered the lobby we ran into Dick, Dani, and Nick. Dani turns and sees us and I blurt out "Hey" before realizing that she doesn't have a clue who I am - I felt like such a lame fan. (That was the extent of my interactions with Dani the entire weekend - I didn't see much of her and when i did she was usually with Nick and i wanted to respect their privacy.) We spoke to Nick for a little bit - talking about his moving to LA and possible plans for the evening. Then Eric took us over to Dick to introduce us (even though i had met Dick the night before) - we talked for about 5 minutes and he was friendly happy dick but he hadn't really slept and was wiped (i think they were just getting back from the early show). Brief ideas about evening plans were thrown around and that was that.

At Universal, we had a great time riding the rides, and just getting to hang out with eachother. Jess and Eric got stopped a ton to take pictures which was a bit odd, but they were very good sports. At one point we ended up on a line that snaked in a way that our group ended up directly next to Kail and her family. We all said hello to eachother and then Kail left her family to check out a nearby stand. Another awkward moment.

After leaving Universal when it closed our crew hung out in the hotel room and showed Eric the cbs popularity polls, the HOH blogs, the boot icons on sucks (i already mentioned he laughed about the sock - he also loved blobfish), etc. He started devouring everything but we had to break him away to get read for dinner.

Picked up Jess' crew and then headed to the lobby where we ran into Jen in the elevator on her way to dinner. Jen mentioned that she was rounding up people to go try to hit Les Deux (thanks to Boogie) and invited us to come along. However, with two underage people in the group we agreed that wasn't the right move for us. We went to universal city walk and had pretty solid tex-mex (well eric had dried chicken that resembled cat food, the rest of our food was solid) and drank up a storm. Then we debated out plan - some of us wanted to hit up the piano bar that was right above where we ate but others wanted to be somewhere a little quieter where we could hear eachother. (That bummed me out b/c i love drunken singing - and bummed me out even more the next day when i read another report which had Dick/Dani/Nick spending their night at that very bar.) Therefore we decided to buy alcohol, go back to the hotel, and all drink there. And drink we did until very early the next morning.

And that's that for Wednesday.


So not only was Eric on almost no sleep, but he also drank a lot the night before Housecalls, and he was still the best interview by far.
