Urbana Fire Department, you haven't seen the last of me.

The neighbor called again. Erich said it was the lady who lives two houses away (not who we've suspected for a year now). I haven't found a summer job and my parents gave me the old, "Mike, maybe it's time you came home and got a few weeks in with Al." (Al is the the "A" in A.D. Carradus & Associates and my boss for 8 years, now.) I really don't want to leave the land of sleep, booze and women and/or agouties. Picadilly?.. If you're in town, come over. We cleaned up all the glass from the bottles we shot in Barrydise last night. We've got a hot grill and meat (and corn, Erin). Bring beer, though. We don't have any of that.

Who's this nerd with the camera? 

Done with Dos

I got food poisoning from Dos Reales yesterday. I’m going to Real Hacienda from now on. Moe is down here for the weekend. Kit comes back today. Two nights ago, Tommy and I got yelled at for going on the roof at some girls’ party. I haven’t talked to Jenn for a week. Hopefully she hasn’t been stabbed, and was only traded off into marriage for an agouti. Oh, she’s in Brazil. I finished writing my resume, but now I don’t know what to do with it. Do I just send it out as an attachment to every company I would consider working for? It’s damn near 80 degrees out. Call me if you want to do something outside.

Tommy�s roommates had a bathtub full of 40oz�ers. We broke them on his front steps but were never arrested. 

??? 

??? 

We�re getting closer.
 

The party we went to last night had a half-pipe in the backyard. Spencer went: Sparks -> beer -> beer -> beer -> beer -> rollerblades.
 

What the hell happened last night?

Screw you for judging me. I think this is a cool pic. 

Erich and Yishai, this one's for you. It was taken yesterday. 

I apologize for implying that Kelly is violent. She is in no way violent, whatsoever.

Ha. 

Oh, man. There are more of these. To be fair and prevent future drama, I will post an equal number of pictures of Ruby and Kelly winning in this officially undecided bush match, which seemed to go on for several minutes. There were multiple take-downs, reversals, butt-grabs and choke holds for both sides. Was it awesome? Yes.

whoa. 

Notice the throat grab? 

You're welcome, Ruby. 

Tommy and I set up a TV and chairs on KB & Jess’ balcony to watch the season finale of you know what. I fell asleep during the opening credits and woke up on the balcony in the morning. I hear it was good, though. Erin is bringing it over in a bit and I’m going to try to watch it again. Mac’s is better than Leo’s (breakfast places).

The driving class: not as bad as it could have been. Things my (your?) driver’s ed teacher lied to us about in high school:

1) You do not have to clear the intersection before the light turns red, even when going straight, so long as you breach the intersection while the light is still yellow.
2) It is not illegal to drive with no shoes on.
3) It is not illegal to drive with your interior light on.
4) You do not always have to turn into the closest lane available if it is “impractical” (or you are a truck).

Nobody cares about this shit, do they? Alright, alright, I can take a hint.

Just pics

I'm supposed to get up and find a job tomorrow morning, but it's already past 4:30 a.m. and jobs aren't really any fun, anyway. I can't go to Mackanaw Island because I have to take a driving class in the suburbs. I originally thought I could just move it back a couple weeks like I've been doing since January, but the court gave me a deadline and this is the last chance I have to get it done.

A lot of the pictures below are old. I just found the photo editing tools on Picassa2 and... Oh, whatever. I'll see you tomorrow? Now if you'll excuse me, I have to appear on a tortilla in Mexico.

After Kelly kicked Joe out of Barrydise, he came back wearing this disguise. Fooled me. 

We finally cut our grass. Actually, I didn't help at all. Spencer is a good 8 ft. tall and the grass was over his knees. 

I have a riddle for you: What just got a job, shreaks a lot, and becomes irrational and violent when drunk??? 

This guy is so jolly. 

"Get on your high horse and ride it to the fucking moon." Ryan Dugan, Breckenridge. 

Oh, yes, you did. 

swing my bro built in the backyard. 

mmmm... 

? 

shut your mouth. 

Michigan is cold and Ponderosa waitresses are skanks

I spent ten hours in a van with my parents and only got in one fight, during which I gave my brother a titty-twister and he called me a "faggot." I didn't even know he knew what that word meant. Maybe he doesn't. Either way, it was awesome. We went to Ponderosa, and I think all of the high school waitresses had some sort of bet to see who could get the goofy-looking "I got hooked on fishing" guy to hit on them. It was surreal. One of them walked up, stared directly at my crotch, smiled, and then brushed against me as she walked away. Another did the classic drop a spoon and deliberately bend over thing. They took turns cleaning all of the tables immediately next to ours. Fucking weird. My brother and I had the last laugh, though. We walked up to the salad bar and waited for a couple of the girls to start fidgeting with the shit around us, then Adam looked at me and said, "Dad, can I get some ice cream?" Strange looks and isolation ever since - finally, something I'm familiar with. Adam made the friggen weekend. He kicks ass at Catch Phrase. Did I mention he called me a faggot?

Who moved Kickapoo?

I thought it was west of Urbana. We took I-74 all the way to Bloomington before I pulled out the map and realized I had pointed us in the wrong direction. It took us 2 hours to get there. My apologies go out to Tommy and Spencer. We burned down KB's house last night. Happy Mother's Day, Mrs. Doran.

This one is a bit old, but it had to go in. Spencer Ford - Hobo Party 

Jesus. I should call my blog the Angelini Show. 

Last night. This is after the fire department left and we started the fire again.
