It is SO DAMN HOT all of a sudden. Have you ever tried to dry yourself off after a hot shower with a damp towel? No? Well it's like putting a snowsuit that was put to dry near the radiator but you wanted to go out again too soon so it's just wet and cloyingly warm instead of being toasty and nice. Or it's like another mental image that I can't come up with BECAUSE IT'S SO HOT AND HUMID.
Now that the weather report is out of the way:
-The 4th of July was good for me. I got a little tan, swam around in the ocean [super cold!], helped drink a 750 of Soco/30 of BLL/handle of tequila, saw some fireworks, slept on a boat
-Deals is getting a puppy in about a week. Today Roomie and I accompanied him on a trip to PetSmart [PetsMart?] to get puppy things. We couldn't help ourselves and bought some toys for our babies, too.
-Roomie and I went grocery shopping for the first time in forever today. It's so exciting to have food to cook again!
-I've more or less decided to move home after the summer, at least for a little bit, to save up some money while I actually look for a job. I just have to tell my parents. Hm. I'll probably run it by Bro or Favorite Cousin soon to see what they think.
-Since I'm mentally resigned to moving home, I figure I may as well get the tattoo that I've been dying to get. I have the cash, and now that I don't have to save it for rent in the immediate future I may as well invest it in a lifelong souvenier of this time in my life.
-It might just be because I'm hilariously funny in real life [...trust me], but several people have told me that if I wrote a book they'd read the shit out of it. As someone who reads my non-fiction on a weekly-ish basis, what do you think of this? I know I've asked this question before, but this time I'm not just fishing for compliments: Can I actually tell a tale or do yous just come back hoping that I'm doing HNT again?
-Before you answer my question, you might want to check out my guest spot on A Rush of Blog to the Head. It's not up yet [uhm, I'm actually not quite done writing it yet], but I'll holler when it's posted.
-Next weekend a group of us kids is going up to JB's condo in New Hampster to get away. Her grampa has a boat that he'll take out for us and the condo complex has pools plus there's a chance of seeing a bear! I invited that guy who I haven't picked a name for [I'm seriously superstitious. I can't even tell you. Being excited and optimistic about dudes in a blog post always signifies him dropping off the face of the damn planet] and he seems really pumped up for it.
-Capoeira is kicking my ass, but it's definitely been worth it. I tend to lost my shit when left to my own devices for too long [see: any of my posts from Home during school breaks] so it's been fun to run around in circles and kick stuff purposefully.
-I suddenly realized that I haven't showered in far too long. I'm damn near sticking to the couch from the sheer force of my own stank. Enough blogging. Shower time.

I would read the shit out of your book. I don't know if you've ever read I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell, but I imagine your book would be a lot like that.
WRITE A FUCKING BOOK.
and also visit me in california.
As soon as I saw the title to this post I smiled. I love me some Anchorman.
I will have it be known, for the record, that I was a fan of this spot before I even knew what HNT stood for. So there's that.
Good luck on the tattoo and I would buy your book for sure.
I'll read the book. Make it happen.
The three components you need (in this order) are:
1. stamina
2. confidence
3. skill
We know you have the skill, because you've been entertaining us for the last three+ years, but do you have the other two?
Try a COLD shower. It works for me :)
Would definitely read... and purchase copies in bulk for holiday gift giving purposes!
another david: i haven't read it, but ive heard a LOT of things about it. maybe i have a future as the female guy-who-wrote-that-book
mary: i can't afford to visit my neighbors, much less california
mr o: i deleted my old HNTs... i have to admit you missed out on some good stuff :P
dr ken: nice, thanks for the vote of confidence
ken lobb: i obviously have stamina, since ive been writing here for so long. and you must not actually read my stories if you think im not confident! hah
heff: thanks for the advice ;)
shayna: excellent :)
