From Illinois? Yeah, I could see that being a tiring day trip.

We're actually visiting family-in-laws in Forest Hills. But it wasn't the distance that was the problem, it was the masses of humanity in their great steel beasts.

Word. I started going out to Montauk when I was 3 years old. It's one of my favorite places on planet earth. My parents have since had a house in East Hampton, where I am this weekend. I love it out here dearly.

But so many of the people out here (specifically my fellow cityfolk) suck in the worst possible ways. And getting here does indeed suck donkey balls. That's why my favorite time is now September and October.

Anyway, we grilled some fish last night and drank some wine. I bought cigars for everyone but fell asleep before I could smoke one.

I went out to dinner for a friend's birthday, then a local bar. Played 'Hoop Fever' doubles by stealing the balls from the other machine. Drank DFH 60 all night, with a few shots of the birthday tradition Yager. Got home at 3 this morning, was up with a nice headache at 6:30. I can't sleep in anymore.

I played 3 games of softball, then went to Beer Garden to celebrate a few friend's birthdays. Got pretty smashed, came home and passed out.

So far: stayed up way too late, slept, made a cup of tea, fed the kitty, not much more.

4 hour hike with the family near Mt. Pisgah.

Which one?

Took the Ex to the grocery store. Went to Mom's and dropped off zucchini, blueberries, watermelon. Lopped branches off a couple of trees at the Ex's and mowed the lawn. Grilled. Now enjoying some beers.

Which one?

Graveyard Ridge Trail.

Talked on the phone when I woke up, then hit the gym, then back on the phone, then took a nap, then phone again. =T

Cool. I haven't been there in many years. My son went with his grandparents a couple of years ago. I loved that place as a kid.

I spent a week there working two weeks ago. Stared in through the windows in Colonial Williamsburg since I didn't want to spend the $35. Spent most of my time not working drinking at the Deli though. Have fun.

Thanks guys!

Slept in until late morning. Listened to music for a while. Spent the afternoon listening to Tom Hankins' Harbeths. Came home with a stack of CDs. Listened to more music for a while, and still listening to music now.

Overall a pretty good day, especially compared to last week.

1kw of heat in the summer

I've often dreamed of opening up one of the up for auction storage units in my Mom's self storage facility and seeing a sight very similar to that. Hasn't happened yet.

They just get prettier every time I see them Justin.

Now go take a nap.

Yesterday we took Lily to the Seacoast Children's Museum for the first time. It was pretty funny to watch the other kids her age sit semi-passively and play with one thing while she roared about the place running from room to room.

Today we're off to the beach for some sun, sand and very little relaxation.

My underpants feel tight all of a sudden.

Don't you have an extra one to send to this side of the pond? And I'm not referring to Spritzer's

Well fucking played sir.

Bets can be taken on how long it is before Kai posts that picture on head-fi.

what I really wanted to do was build all 20 and plug them in at the same time, but a few months work for one photo op wasn't going to happen

Plus it would have taken down the whole grid.

Today I began studying the starter-vinyl threads here.
