sparing you the details, i realized in the bathroom a few minutes ago that my last four meals were all cheeseburgers. purely unintentional, i swear. they were just there. part of the holiday spirit i guess.

but hot damn do i love my three day weekends. i slept almost 11 hours one night, which was great. i hung out with a looney stranger one night, which was fun because she really liked me (why do i attract crazy girls with such graceful ease?). there’s a story there but telling it would just ruin it. i played four or five games of beer pong yesterday and this time the table doesn’t even need any post-party repairs — our first true success in that department. both the cubs and sox won their memorial day games; the former i am going to see tomorrow night, the latter died to me when they went on strike instead of going to the finals that one summer. how old was i then? prepubescent for sure.

speaking of which, if you’re that, you’ll love this movie lords of dogtown which i saw at a free screening tonight. my excuse was that i went with a coworker who had passes and was actually a skater during that golden age, so he was stoked. we agreed the documentary was better but it was a fun movie with cool skating despite a suspicious lack of acting. but hey, the hairdos were pretty sweet at least. like i said, if you’re just hitting that teen rebellion stage it’ll be good inspiration to buy a trendy recently price-elevated skateboard and start trespassing to skate pools; if you’re older you might want to stick with reminiscing, or at best wait til you can put this on your netflix queue, sorta near the bottom.
