i hope everyone had a pleasant turkish day. ours was pretty good, and the four day weekend was most welcome in this the busy season for social drunks and therefore we in the vino slangin' business. a few high and low points:
-turkish day was held at the home of siouxs!'s oldest brother and his not so popular wife. they moved out to eureka, home of six flags over jesus christ. the neighborhood is sterile and sickening, but is on one of the few large hills to be found in the greater st. louis area, so at least you can see the sameness for miles and miles. the turkey was good, the high-life was better.
-walk the line... i recommend it. there were a few times i couldn't stay in the moment, but on the whole, it was quite good.
-i seem to be a tony hawk's xxxxxxxx whichever ps2 game savant. i'm not that good at other video games, but by god can i play that series
-friday was "buy nothing day," so that's what we did. no after thanksgiving sales, no eating out, no filling up the tank. it was a good day.
-saturday was siouxs!'s ten year high school reunion. i went to dinner with them. the dinner was good, siouxs!'s friend kate was a nightmare. she couldn't stop talking about how much money she'd donated to the school or the reunion committee, how much she loved living on the east coast and the culture boost that implied, and how hot all the boys found her. had i not been under promise to not be deliberately mean to her, i would have had a much better story to tell here.
-i was supposed to have a forty drinking evening with the wife's sister's boyfriend, but it never materialized.
there was a bit more, but i'll get into it in a later post.
