So I'm hanging out with my grandfather this weekend. We needed to get the riding mower back up to "the farm" because there was a belt that needed to be replaced. It was replaced, ready to go, we just needed to tow it back up there. Grandpa was not feeling very well that day, so I drove, with the trailer, and he pointed at things he wanted me to do while up there at the farm. Sometimes, its nice to feel like you have a little direction in your life.
So anyway, on the way back, Grandpa starts asking about what's going on with the house, the roommates, work, etc...and it comes to "my lovelife." Now, I've never been real comfortable speaking about my lovelife with extended family, but I decided I'd let loose a little and see how it is speaking of such things with Grandpa. He can handle it, is surprisingly "with" the times. And get this.
If Grandpa says that premarital sex is ok, it's gotta be ok. I mean seriously...how can you argue with that? If your grandfather tells you that at your age, its totally ok...(use a rubber he says) - That is the coolest shit I've ever heard. My grandpa is now officially cool. I already knew this, but now I can announce it to the rest of the world. It's one thing to come from your friends, your father, etc....but if it comes from your grandpa - it's golden.
Anyway, the house hasn't burned down, which reminds me that we don't own a fire extinguisher I don't think. I'll go out tonight and get one.
There will be a housewarming party over labor day weekend, it will be Saturday, Sept 2, and it will be a "stock my bar party" - which means your gift to me and my house is liqour. You bring the bottle, but you leave the bottle at my house, and you DON'T finish it that night.
If you need to know what kind of liqour to bring, leave a message here, I'll let you know. Please let me know if you intend to bring something, so that I don't end up with 20 bottles of bourbon and no vodka. Granted, I only drink bourbon, but I want booze for other people later too u know?
