So, to get things started right, I got a bad haircut. The front doesn’t look bad, but the back has about a 1" shaved part along the bottom. Maybe this is cool in some sectors, but I’m a corporate guy and this sucks. And Thursday (now today), I’ve got an important meeting with potential investors.
Then, to keep the party going, I set fire to my hand lighting illegal fireworks. They looked like the standard firecrackers with the wicks braided together, so you light the wick throw it and they explode one after the other. But no. I guess I should’ve been keyed-in by the fact that there was powder all over them. I held them in my hand and lit them and boom they’re shooting colorful sparks everywhere. I immediately drop them, and one falls (of course) in the bag with the other fireworks. Luckily I had the quick sense to shake it out before it lit the others up.
But all that wasn’t enough fun, so I went skateboarding with my 10 year old nephew. I used to surf alot as a kid and skateboard a bit, but that was 15+ years ago, and we had never heard of ollies or any of this new-fangled stuff. I tried to do a half pipe, which looks pretty easy from the ground, but when you’re up on the top getting ready to come down its a bit intimidating. Anyway, I went for it, slipped and twisted my knee good. It popped pretty loud and I’m hobbling pretty good; I hope it’s ok. I’ll see the doc this afternoon.
And all that was before I started drinking; imagine the fun if I’d started earlier.
Other than that, had a great time!
