don't you just hate it when the best line comes to you and you have to just bite your tongue because you know what you're about to say is totally wrong even if it is hilarious?
well, my friend Sam and I were with her kids at a street festival in Willimantic. Elliott-7 and Isabella-5. Sam and I are very good friends, and our friendship is totally nonsexual. I was still getting the impression that people thought we were married because we were both walking around with these kids. Not to mention the facts that Sam and I are about the same age and have a similar appearance. Her kids even share similar physical features with both of us.
So sam is signing her kids up for a raffle for free gymnastics classes and Elliott says "mommy, i don't wanna do gymnastics." the woman behind the booth says "that's what all the kids say until they see our big trampoline."
and i, in my best gruff sounding, southern cowboy voice say "are you tryin to turn my son into some kinda fag?"
....well, i really didn't say that but it woulda been funny if i did. funny in a very obnoxious sort of way.
i've been lovin' every minute of life lately. this summer rules. I hope it stays fun like this because things have been shitty up until a little while ago. i think i'm coming out of a slump.
i went to the AS220 block party a week ago. AS220 is this awesome DIY show space in Providence, RI. I sold a bunch of zines and ran into a whole lot of people I thought I would never see again. I sat there behind my zine table outside in the sun getting wasted all day. having fun and talking to people. it was so nice. i can't believe how many people really love my zines. wow, i guess the guy from slug and lettuce is just a primadonna asshole.
...speaking of which, i'll post the really good review i got in heart attack in another few days.
in other news, i had the pleasure of meeting Hunter. She's a very fun and an interesting person to hang out with. She explained to me what a "junkyard" is. Sunday, we hung out with some friends of ours from Hartford and just got food and drinks on the patio of this place called Tisane in the west end of Hartford. Aside from chocolates melting in my pocket, it was good times.

go now and say it, now, even if the situation is no longer appropriate, i'm a strong believer in saying things when the first pop into your head
