Hello readers,
It is that time of the month where I post another blog about my hugs. Are you ready? Do you need something to drink? Maybe some popcorn? I am going to reveal the 100th hug of the year.
Okay, here we go!

HUG 100!: April 1, 11PM-ish: Male, 27
This one was a shocker even to me. There is a guy at work, which I will call Remington because he likes guns... a lot. He own like 6 rifles and a bunch of hand guns. His views are very right wing kind of guy. It was his last day at work before he gets to go to his new job. After work a bunch of co-workers took Remington out for drinks, which he had quite a few. After it all, we were going are own ways home. I noticed Fuzzy, who showed up to send off Remington, a hug. I thought I would take a chance. It started off as a handshake and ended up as a bro hug. I was surprised I got that from him. Seems very cool.

After some more talking, Fuzzy went home as well. I got a hug from him before he took off.
Hug 102: April 1, 11PM-ish: Male, 27
What is even more surprising about hug 100, is that it got a repeat that very night, like 15 minutes later. That's right, Remington gave me two hugs in one night. Something I wasn't expecting.
Hug 103: April 2, 8PM-ish: Male, mid-twenties
It was Jinx's birthday and I was going to go and wish her a happy b-day by going to tea with her. Unfortunately, the tea shop we visit was closed due to the fact it was Good Friday. What tea shop closes on Good Friday? I can see being closed in the morning, but all day? Whatever. The alternative plan was to go to Crushinator's place for a bbq/fire pit chat.
When I got to Crushinator's, his neighbor and good friend, who I will call Von Digital because he is German and is into computers. Anyways, I haven't seen him in a while and started talking and got a hug from him.

My cousin Goldielocks gave me a hug thinking I wasn't going to see her for sometime, like June. She would be wrong on that for I saw her once more before the month was over.

The night didn't produce anymore hugs, but there was much fun. Ate at a Mexican restaurant, went to a Korean karaoke bar, sang some songs along and with the group. There were some good song in there. We finished the night with some fooze ball and pool. It was a good night.

Hug 128: April 24, 9PM-ish: Male, 5.5 months
After Goldielocks arrived and she was surprised, Cool Hand was passed around the room from person to person. At some point, he was handed to me. I held him from some time.

When I saw this, I jumped at it to see if I could go with Crushy, and I lucked out. So, I met him outside the theatre before the show started. I gave him a hug when he got there. I knew it was a trap to get a date with me, but whatever, free tickets right.
Hug 132: April 25, 9PM-ish: Male, 28
The show was awesome, I have not laughed that much in a long time. The seats were second row so it was easy for us to yell out things when the hosts asked for suggestions.

At the end of the night, I gave another hug to Crushinator before we parted ways.

117 hugs until I meet my 2010 hug goal. This month I got 34 hugs which is way more than the 17 hugs a month average I needed to from last month. So, the average number of hugs I need per month is 15 a month. I was dong about 15 a month last year when I wasn't trying, but there are the drought months coming up so we will see if we can make the goal happen.
Author's Note: I took me a long time to figure out who got hugs on April 3. I am still not sure how I got 8 that night, because I can only remember 7 right now, but I assure you the count is correct.
Have a great day readers!
