Just on the off chance that you don't actually care about my life (laughs), here's your warning.
While it may not be a story of
tucker max proportions, my weekend's been pretty rockin'.
OK, so I went camping for probably the first time in...8 months? yes
that seems about right. So I get to blow off all my other plans and go
sleep in the woods. Yes, in the woods. No, not in a tent. Actually in
the woods. it was some kids bright idea that we not only forsake our
tents and build our own survival shelter, but we also not bring matches
or lighters our cooking stoves. And thus begins our series of eclectic
stick shelters (read: shitholes) and primitive meals (the "sloppy joe"
version of pizza).
I always hate these campouts becasue I never get to sleep.
Ignoring the fact that I'm up till about 3 drinking (I am officially
the worst boy scout ever) and am woken up at 8, I have the five hours
in between to stare at the ceiling (read "tarp") and think the thoughts
i think. The good news is that i wrote five new songs (the bad news is
a forgot 3 of them.)
We all know what happens when im left to my own thinking. its
unintentional self-destruction.
Good food, football, knives and magnesium, what else could youa sk for?
Well, for one showers. I haven't showered in two days (I'm sure you
were dying to know that). Or brushed my teeth.
On the second day the paramedics arrived at the scene. One of our
members, Brandon, had closed his knife on his finger. It went into the
bone. Later another brendan stabbed himself on my knife (yes, eh
stabbed himself). Yet another brendan, the one we all know, got
shriveled feet. I had nightmares about them. his feet were like, 80.
I could go on forever about anecdotes, such as my singing songs to
Teegan in my drunken stupor while he was trying to read (might I add
that these were the most annoying songs known to man), or tipping over
portapotties or simply running through camp with toilet-dipped torches.
But I smell like cigarette smoke and need a shower. I will say this to
leave you off however: brendan M is a lot cooler than anyone could have
thought.
quote of the day: "If you were as drunk as you are now and woke up in
the morning with a condom in your ass, would you tell anyone? No? lets
go to sleep."
