Thank God it's... Thursday!
The countdown to the long weekend has officially begun and I am watching that clock tick down to 5. I've got tomorrow and Monday off. Lucky me!
I probably won't be posting too much for the next few days since I'll be outside having fun and enjoying life and stuff.
I'll be at the Sox game on Sunday so if you're going to the game, look for me in the beer line in the grandstands behind home-plate. I'll be wearing my Red Sox World Series ball-cap.
I hope everyone has a safe and fun 4th of July! Try not to blow your hand off with any fireworks mmm kay? And be careful with sparklers too!
FYI, if you take a box of sparklers and then light up all of the sparklers at the same time, at that point, it's not a happy-go-lucky extra-large sparkler you're holding in your hand. When you light them all at once, all the cute little sparklers actually combine together to become a giant fucking torch that can really burn the hell out of your hand.
Although it can provide some momentary entertainment to those who witness you holding a giant fireball in your hand, the sparkler/torch burns out very quickly and then for the rest of the day it becomes really hard to pick up chicks while your sitting with your burned and blistered hand jammed into the ice at the bottom of the beer bucket, so don't be that guy!
Also, if you decide to use a potato gun this weekend, be sure to aim it away from people, cars, boats, neighbor's windows, etc, etc when you shoot it.
Not that I would know anything about sparkler torches or shooting potatoes at people. I'm always the cool one hangin' back with my beer watching the mayhem. Honest. Ok, maybe it was my idea to light off all the sparklers at once but my friend grabbed the box from me and lit them himself, prompting me to say to him later, "Boy, I'm glad you tried that and not me dude. Hey, while you're sitting there with your hand in the beer cooler, can you hand me 2 Coronas? I want to go talk to that chick over there."
Finally, I want to say a sincere thank you to everyone that has served or is currently serving in our Armed Forces. It is because of you that Independence Day exists. THANK YOU!
I always knew you were the smart one BW. have a great holiday!
