East Coast Debacle

Bender: Eating, Drinking, Uncomfortable Hugging, Drinking, Drinking, Eating, Arguing, Sleeping, Traveling

Its been awhile faithful readers, I have been away. I had a great time out East. The trip started off in Boston and of course I was met at the airport with a traveler in tow. This trip was partly revenge for when Batty visited me when I had a full time job and had to drag my hungover ass out of bed for work every morning. During the days, I rode the T all over Boston. At night, there was some uncomfortable hugging with virgin christian asians (ask me when you see me). Then, the whole crew came down from NYC to Boston for a trip to Cape Cod. It seemed like a great idea to beat traffic and we hit the road for the camp at 3am, which happens to coincide with bar close. We did miss the traffic and hit the water right at sunrise.


Staying up through the night often leads to strange weekends. We rode some killer waves and drank many a beer. Oh yeah and snaked a jug of Carlo Rossi (obvs). Something took over Batty and left him repeating "You don't know Tony Roma's Ribs" until he ran out of energy and went to bed around 8. The rest of us had a heated argument around the campfire about...you guessed it...Wikipedia. Great times. Whats your power animal? Sean's is a possum.



Ah, New York City how I hate you so. I actually had the best trip yet to NYC. Saw some great art (MOMA, P.S.1), some friends I hadn't seen in a long time, some great music (Dr. Dog and the Walkmen) and drank myself into chaos. Not sure what to add.

Now, I'm back in MN for a couple weeks. I am waiting to secure housing in Oregon. By the way, I got the exact job I wanted! I'll be doing grant writing for a marine park on the Columbia River. The main project involves planning a sailing, windsurfing and kiteboarding complex!!! Can you believe that?!?!

Hit me up if you are around MN, I'd like to make the best of my last couple weeks of FUNEMPLOYMENT.
