So the last 3 days have been spectacular
Friday, I got up and mowed the lawn, and I was going to pick up Amber and go to Kingston and play in the Lumberjack Kickball Union thing, but when I got to her house, it started to downpour, so I decided against it. Amber found 2 N64's, 15 games, and 5 controllers, so we went to Julia's and played with them all day. I also beat the Elite four in Blue Version. It was pretty satisfying. That and I owned Julia's brothers in Diddy Kong racing, Goldeneye, DK64, and others. Fun.
Saturday, I got up just after the crack of dawn to go to band practice, and we had a very productive one. We wrote a good portion of a new song, and we tightened up a few loose bolts in other songs (basically just my inability to memorize lyrics). Then, we went to a concert in Boston at the Avalon, where I learned of a very pleasant act called Cherry S/T. There were some other decent metal bands, one (breathe) who's singer looked like the one from Evan's Blue, and another that wasn't quite worth mentioning. Then, Justin's cousin's band came on, and it was enjoyable. Not exactly my genre, but I could respect their abilities. They were all very talented, just not playing what I like, exactly. Meh. Then on the way home, Tyler saw some people doing it in the back of someone's car driving down the highway. That was fun.
Today, I went to look after my nephews for an hour while my mom did some things she needed to take care of, and then we went to the beach, went to get lunch, took a nap (all of us. Jaden, Jake, my mom and I.) and then I went home. Then I went to the Ska show at the Sad. Interrobang was supposed to be there, but they cancelled last minute, and two bands I'd never heard of played. They were good. It was fun. I'm skanked out. So, at 9, I got all sorts of hugs and went home, satisfyed at my wonderful weekend.
Not to mention when I got home, there were leftovers from Acupulco's waiting for me, along side some strawberry shortcake. Fucking splooge.
I hope this week is a fraction that good.
