Poor Jesse had to hear me say this about 9 million times last night, so I will say it here so I don't have to keep saying it. I got a new car! A 2001 Monte Carlo. It is the brightest, most obnoxiously red car I have ever seen. I want to take my Michigan friends for a ride.
Also, for those of you who were concerned about the quality of character of the people I met at Beach House the other week: Your apprehensions were well-founded. Since my first taste of role playing at Beach House, I have been playing Call of Ctulthu in an IRC channel the past few nights. I felt like I was coming out of the closet to my dad today when we had the following conversation at an auto parts store, fixing his truck (the location of choice for people to come out of the closet):
Rikc: (glancing at clock) uhm dad, do you know how much longer this is going to take?
Dad: Hold your horses Rikc, we just have to get this belt on and hook up the new battery and we can go home. Why are you in such a hurry?
Rikc: Ur, I have to be home by 7pm.
Dad: Why?
Rikc: ...I am playing Dungeons and Dragons with some people online and I can't keep them waiting.
My dad's tone lowered to "I have failed as a father and you have failed to ever get laid before you die" levels.
