Gas Station Hack

I've never noticed how bright lights are in a parking lot at one in the morning. It makes it hard to see my globe colored Hackey Sack as Chris, Dennis, and I kick it around. It is november in Connecticut and although it is still pretty bearable it is crisp outside. It's more comfortable to keep your hands in your pocket.

We go to that particular gas station in Meriden because it's right down the street from Dennis's apartment and the people that work there are friendly. Also, it's kind of near the center of Meriden so there always seems to be something going on. Last night an old friend of Dennis that I met at a party once just happened to be walking around with another gruff looking pal. They both have large doc martins on and carry beer in backpacks with some weed tucked in their cigarette packs for good luck. They smile through their beards and I am happy to hack with them near some gas pumps on a crisp November night in New England.

Read some poetry.

Not at fault

So the other night I was sitting at a red light while en route to stop at my favorite bar with Tom for a cold one, when all of a sudden WHAP! I was smacked by another car and pushed out into the middle of the Berlin Turnpike. For those of you who don't know what the turnpike is, let me inform you. It is a four lane highway that runs through three towns in Central CT. Needless to say I didn't make it to the bar, instead I went to the emergency room and my Buick is totaled. Updates will be coming soon to what car I will be getting next, but I think that this is an omen. With this accident will rise an adventure van, IT WILL RISE!

My great Aunt.

When I was younger, at holidays an aunt would come over and she was always very kind to me. Her name was Irene. I am going to her wake now. More and more people in my life keep dying.

It would be nice to go to a marriage.

Now that the movie is done.

This movie that I have been working on was crazy. It involved many man and woman hours and I have been very exhausted helping with it. Now that it is over I will try to start this blog off right. I am reading a book called Sick Puppy by Carl Hiaason. I will tell you all about it when I have finished it. I also picked up some CD's from the library and plan to review those as well.

Things are starting off very slowly for American Bard, but that means that things have started. I am still looking for a van. If you have any connections for a good van, throw me an email. I also need a guitar. I keep looking for one, but I just can't find the one that fits. I know it will jump out and slap me when I do.

Go make a new friend.

Read some more books to.

A guitar for myself. When I see it I'll know.
