Samuel Adams
- I'm about halfway through the John Adams HBO miniseries. Shit's good. History has never been my subject but I've always been interested in/inspired by the founding fathers and John Adams was among those that I knew the least about. Well, okay, there was a girl I had a crush on in like the 2nd grade whose last name was Adams and apparently she was a descendant. Her and I shared spaghetti-O's once, I think. It was a long time ago.
- Speaking of 2nd grade crushes: when were your first crushes? Sometimes I tell people about crushes/girlfriends/romantic failures I've had dating back to elementary school and they seem surprised that I would have or at least remember having amorous pursuits that long ago. When was your first crush?
- Holy crap, why did they release all the summer movies I want to see within two weeks of each other? Fuck, man, well if anyone wants to see either Pineapple Express, Vicky Christina Barcelona, Tropical Thunder, or Brideshead Revisited with me sometime soon I will go with you barring that its not in some far-away St. Pete theater.
- Things are pretty good, pret-tay, pre-tay good right now; sometimes I think life can't get any worse and then all of a sudden really cool stuff happens and I feel dumb about being so negative and oh shit I'm sorry for being so vague about it all but just remember that I'll never lose contact with my inner pessimist and you can expect some more self-hate infused entries soon enough, I promise. For now, though, I'll consider 2008 to be a vast improvement over 2007, despite passing by so quickly
