thursday friday saturday i went camping with sean, david, and moe. we set up camp and made a fire. then we went hiking in the dark...which isn't a good idea since there are animals out there. once we got back, sean made dinner, i forgot what we had. anyway, we had gotten a bunch of wood from work. the whole back of my truck was filled. however, there were long pieces of lumber so the guys started to break them in half so that they'd fit in the firepit. david went ahead and gave himself this huge splinter. it was about an inch long and wedge shaped. the fat end was about a quarter inch thick. that part went into the palm of his hand first. for about two hours we tried to get it out...they even walked to other campsites to ask for tweezers. so there we are standing by the fire, pouring vodka on his hand and the utensils we used: tweezers, blade, and pliers. we could not get it out. it was just too deep. he ended up driving himself to the emergency room where they numbed his hand and cut it out. he came back bandaged and with a small bottle in his hand that held the splinter that was in his palm. we were already asleep when he got back. first thing he said through the tent was, "hey sean, let me in. there are animals out here." later the in the night moe and i heard a mountain lion right outside our tent making a low growl. the following day we found a squirrel just chilling in our bag of chips just munching away. we hiked through some thick ass brush and eventually got to the beach. along the way i found a frog, sean caught a snake, and at the beach we saw lots of animals: crabs, spiders, sea urchins, sea anenomes, sea slugs, star fish, snails, etc. there were tide pools so lots of living things were seen. we hiked back to camp. david had to leave but KC and his gf joined us. we all got drunk and made a big ass fire. it was great. oh by the way i was pissed off the whole time at moe cuz he's stupid.
saturday night we went out to the yardhouse in pasadena. 30 people showed up for moe's bday. we also saw rob schneider there. this is the second time i've bumped into him. last time was at a swap meet at the rose bowl. anyway, this time was more interestng cuz i saw him up close. no one bothered him, he was at the bar. he's short...and he's balding...i felt like saying, "i LOVE you in the animal" but he probably gets that all the time. anyway. i was still made at him. i think maybe we said like 10 words to each other. yeah i stole his thunder on his bday but whatever, i was driven to the point of breaking up with him...he just didn't know it. everyone got drunk, except for me. i drove them home. i walked to my car to drive myself home and moe came with. he was incredibly coherent for being forced to drink many shots and a few half yards of hef. we hashed it out and its good now. he's such a dork still. has insecurities and doesn't know how to deal with it. he should have so much more confidence and i don't know why he doesn't.
will post pics later. i'm tired. and it's raining.
