Summer of Sos
8.14.06
Long time no update. Anyway in quick bullet fashion here are summer of Sos highlights and lowlights.
-Job status= unemployment. So far I’m loving it despite the whole negative cash flow.
-Facial hair gone- pics are here http://sosceltic.blogspot.com
-Food- I love it. Have spent a lot of quality time at Redbones with my work (er former work) friends. Will need to branch out to find other quality barbecue. Recommend Redbones Texas and Memphis ribs as well as the Catfish. And the pecan pie is 2nd to only Mary Claire’s.
-Shenanigans- a whole lot of that lately. Special shout outs to Jay and Danny for visiting from LA, 25th Bday Pub Crawl after party which I slept through (as Danny and Mikey lost Steve!?), and 6 flags (2 for 1 coupons so I’d go again).
-New roommate- Ed, friend of Jraf and Jjunks. Nice dude, replaced beer fridge and futon. What’s not to like?
-Best movies of the Summer- Wordplay and Lady in the Water. I am a narf.
-Best habit gained from summer film-Crossword puzzles. I love them especially the Weekly Dig Guestcrosslord’s.
-Best summer reading- Weekly Dig. It’s fun, it’s irreverent, and it’s free. For real reading liked Beyond Glory: Joe Louis vs. Max Schmeling, and a World on the Brink by David Margolick and Unchosen: The Hidden Lives of Hasidic Rebels
by Hella Winston.
Videogames- With the restraints of employment gone I have time for videogames. I’ve been battling commies in Gamecube’s Freedom Fighter, an alternate history first person shooter where the commies have taken over modern day NYC and it’s up you, a plumber, to fight for freedom.
