Alright so today was simply a "killer" day. The first killer thing was waking up and not remembering where I was. I love when that happens. Turns out i was just at the neighbors house sleeping around a bend on the couch. Damn yeah. Then me and Lee Becker rode to Karls and walgreens and such at about 10:00 and i bought hair dye. Then i went to church and saw a whole bunch of pussy 2nd graders getting their 1st communion. Got back, skipped lunch, then i put a streak in my hair of black. (hey post how my hair looks after you see it)My parents just found out and surprisingly they really dont care. I just said i did it at savannahs and it only lasts 10 washes. Too bad i dont wash my hair. (snickers in the background) My mom did make some crack like "never a dull moment..." or something like that, but i am an individual and ive been getting in a ton of trouble lately. Truthfully i dont give a shit but i like my hair now. So awwright.
Soon following my parents leaving to waukesha i called brian and he came over and we did our traditional sunday sweep through the IP. I mean this when i say it cuz it doesnt happen too often anymore, today was a sick day of the skate. I was popping my ollies and nollies and b/s flips and such like mad right from the start, we just flew by a bunch of sets of stairs and just that tight shit to start and then we came to the kohls 7. alright, this fucker is STEEP. The runway is like 10 feet too so neither of us ended up doing it, we kept bailing and then this lady came out to smoke and told us to split. Somehow everytime we walk in front of the kohls building this same guy walks out the front door with a paper and stairs at us. I just say "just passing through, well be off the property in a jif" and he responds with a carefree "that's fine" and a discontent look on his face. He must be a paranoid bastard. Damn skaters. So on the way back from there we stopped at this block/dock thing im not sure how to explain it. We skated it up for a bit and found a wooden 3 and skated that. Right when we were about to set it up down it to slide it, this guy comes out and hes like "can i talk to you for a second?"
We walked over to him and this is how the conversation went down. "Alright guys I'm not the business owner or anything but i happen to be working today and i see you were skating. Now my son has come down here before and skated all this material and I dont mind but all i ask is that you stay away from my truck and put all the wood and materials you use back where you found them. (he points to the wooden 3stair) You're gonna put that back where it came from right"
Me: "yes sir"
The dude: " okay well you guys just use whatever you need and if something breaks or anything like that you come knock on my door and tell me, just be honest and well take care of it. be careful and if you get hurt deal with it yourselves. Have fun guys."
Me: "i'm sorry, we dont have to leave?''
The dude: " no, just as long as you stay away from my damn truck"
(walks away)
That was so tight, I was expecting like a "ive called the cops youve got 5 minutes to run" or a "im gonna call the cops if you dont get the hell out" but no, he told us to skate. thats gotta be the coolest employee ever.
After that place was done, we went to this curved ledge and banks where we set up some ply we found laying around up on a picnic table and skated the shit out of it. So we went home, brian left.
Next thing you know, Jina calls....
I wish i could copy down the whole conversation because its great when shes in such a good mood, hearing her talk when shes happy could brighten anyone's day. she told me about prom and all this good stuff and I guess how she still loves me. Im not sure what were going to do but i dont want things to change. I'm just really happy she doesnt hate me or want her ending our relationship to make us distant, thats always good. So we talked about some old memories and stuff and it put me in a good mood as i am now. This was the highlight of my night: Jina told me that she never wants to be away from me, ever. She said that if she were to move to South Carolina, that being away from me would be so bad. She said that it changed her life by meeting such a genuine person and she wants us to never grow apart. I hope that never happens. To summarize it, she says shes just "really glad she met me". No one has ever said that to me before, and having someone to love that loves you back almost no matter what is a really great thing. I guess i hurt her feelings that night by doubting her but im sorry, i didnt intend to seem mean. Good moods are what make the world go round guys!!
Have FUN tonight everyone.
Fuck.
