dear winter break, you will be missed.
Parking Lot Sessions.
Doctor Fast Cash. Littering and dancing. Anna's everyday. Smoking cigarettes while we talk about what to do for the rest of the night, FOR the rest of the night. Eric being ridiculous. "Matt Quinn, how would you feel about me telling the cashier that Im out of my mind blazed right now." Hot tub nights.
Mall Rats.
Trips to the Crystal mall. Attempting to pick up the trashiest girls we could find. Discounts. Moshing in lobbies. Free drinks. Crushed cigarettes. Getting hit in the face with bags. Brian opening a credit card because I'm an awful influence. Singing as loud as I could to the music at Hollister, because I hate that store. Reno wearing the kong mask and standing behind little kids until they ran away.
Life is a Highway.
Road trips to:
Bangor, Maine, with Reno to a ridiculously good night of drinking and making new friends.
Waterford, Connecticut, with Reno and Brian to pick up Jocelyn and bring her to live with us for 5 days.
Hope Valley, Rhode Island, to visit / pick up one of our new BFFs.
Drinking. Singing as loud as we could. Reno turning upside down to play Coheed and Cambria guitar solos. Peeing on the side of 95N. Driving on 95 / 495 / 93 until 5am.
Faced.
New Year's Eve in Boston. Random floor moments. Singing Saves the Day. Pounding beers with Pete Shea in his basement. Watching Kelly Graves almost go to the hospital, and the madness which ensued. Putting Reno's shoes on for him, having him throw up on my tires, and then hardcore dancing after to prove he wasn't drunk. Breaking things. Dancing by myself, in my boxers and a fur coat to mozart. Joey Sweets. Chris Brandts faced laugh. Being with people I love. Eric: "Yo, I broke a vase upstairs but the mom didn't care." Jocelyn throwing up all over a kitchen and inside cabinets.
Family.
All of us pretty much living together. Hot tub nights. Aimless drives around Reading & chain smoking. Watching Home Alone at my house on Christmas with my best friends. The way it feels to have a car full of your friends. Driving to Anna's on a whim. Randomly laying around eachother's houses. Having bagel world delivered. Wandering around Newbury Comics with Reno and Joce for hours. Walmart visits. Sing alongs. Scouring Wetzel's cabinets while stoned. Group Fear Factor nights. ROGUES. MxMxC. Mr. And Mrs Smith at Reno's. The smell of each friends house. Knowing there's absolutely nothing to do. Picking Chris and Reno up at the airport, and then going straight to Anna's. Shmutz. Dicks dicks 2 k 6. Wandering around Allston when I wake up, wicked hung over trying to find my car. Luca. Getting free Timmy Hos. Fur crew. Long goodbyes. Looking back twice. The seeing you after I haven't seen you in ages, but you're my best friend hugs. Late night talks at the playground. Denny's nights. "the dinner party was great, that pasta was the best i've ever had...also, i wanted to let you know that i...i uhh well i jerked off in your bed...and i think i left my shoes there, so if you find them - "
"hello?"
CLICK!
I hate that it's over. I hate that the number of vacations like this with all of us are extremely limited. I hate that my best friends moved away / are making plans to move away. I hate growing up. I hate that it's back to Emmanuel.
So long.
