Your Boring Saturday Night

telephone thing - i watched Triangle the other night and was pleasantly surprised.

Mostly stuff from The Visitors and Super Trouper.

hate being 30 in a college town

could be worse ... you could be 40 in a college town.

this is like the first non-boring saturday in a while for me. all my fun days are weekdays. usually i'm too exhausted from work to be fun but tonight was pretty alright. i was at this art show which was kinda fun but mostly blah, but then i got sauced on cheap pitchers of beer and danced with a drag queen, and all sorts of folks, and ok my girlfriend has to work early and went home, but hell with it i'll sleep the hell in and enjoy the day off.

Wiped way the fuck out on my bike. I was thinking of safety, ironically -- I looked down to turn my front light brighter, and missed a sharp curve. Ended up in the grass with some bruises and a little mild road rash, which was nice, because the object I was most trying to avoid was a concrete pole. That would have been quite nasty. Hooray for tightening up my front brake this morning. I'm so glad this was a boring Saturday night injury instead of an exciting Saturday night trip to the emergency room. The jogger that stopped and asked if I was OK was v nice -- I was just out of it enough to offer him a cigarette. He declined, and decided I was ok at that point. I said thanks to him again as I rode past him a few minutes later.

"you could be 40 in a college town."
Yeah this crossed my mind.

that dream could be reality

Doing what I can to keep that from happening.
Time is funny.

Wanted to go out to a jazz club but said fuck it.

I don't get the last bit, but I love the Thelma & Louise panel.

xxxpost glad you're okay Kenan! Though technically your wipeout is too interesting for this thread...

"you could be 40 in a college town."

Yeah this crossed my mind.

This is the short version of why I do not live in Austin, TX anymore. Look away for a second, and you're 40 years old smoking pot on someone else's back porch, and -- here's the real problem -- that doesn't strike you as odd at all.

well, the town where i live has a college ... and a lot of college students (or recent college grads). and i am 40 now. draw whatever conclusions you want.

If it's not Austin, I can't say anything for sure. I was just in danger of becoming of of those Austin people who went to college there, maybe got a degree and maybe didn't, and just stayed to work on my healthy glowing tan for the rest of my life. I think Austin people know the type.

being old and stones in Austin...doesn't sound all that bad tbh. but then again i don't know 'the type'

It sounds terrible to me! And I guess 'the type' is the type that'll go down with the ship just because they're too stoned to notice it's going down. I know I'm being unfair to Austin as a city, but 'the type' does persist there.

Kenan the last bit isn't part of the comic up above. I just stuck it in there.

Oh I see.

It is hotter than hell in my house tonight.

Oof. Sore.

the austin "type" sounds like matthew mcconaughey in dazed and confused (set in texas, mind you).
