Happy Halloween!

sup readers. how's it going. just dropping in to say what's up. it's a shame i don't write more, but at least i'm aware of it! i probably shouldn't waste so much (of your) time talking about writing quantity, but it's honestly something that i think about.

ok, went to the dartmouth harvard football game today with my dad. we tailgated for about 20 minutes in the sweet budweiser camping chairs that i won (i entered some contest, won a chair, then changed my address and so they just sent one to both addresses). drank a little and ate a little and rolled in, sat in my awesome crazy creeks and cheered for dartmouth but left when the score got a little out of control

saw a dartmouth guy get thrown out by harvard police, what gives? haha. then we walked across the street and watched the last 5 minutes of the harvard dartmouth soccer game before bouncing. the drunk guy that had gotten thrown out showed up and proclaimed what had just happened and it was funny and we verified it. haha im rambling but whatevaaaa

it's warm outside, almost 70 degrees, humid. im chillin. partying tonight. yeahhhhh

k later

vexation of spirit

from ecclesiastes...

on sunday i finally got out of town. thank god for ambitious friends. went with some buddies apple picking in northboro at tougas farm. success. it was the last day of the season. we drove out there, picked a half bushel, ate a ton of apples, stuffed ourselves with apple cider donuts, kettle corn, and delicious apple cider, bought an apple crisp, watched the sunset, and drove home.

a lovely day and it was good to get away.

my own hibernation starts today -- its basketball season. already i am structuring my social life around celtics games. this is NOT good. it's happening too soon. i need to somehow meet in the middle.

so yeah, the next 6-7 months i just need to be aware of what i am doing and conscious of it and comfortable in it. see, its a big deal!

ok. have fun watching the celtics. i will be :) cya, go boston, D

hello

hi how's it going. i'm hanging out. it's kind of a grey day outside, but its cool. im watcing some football, rooting for uconn (such a sad story).

bc notre dame game is on in 25 minutes. that will be fun to watch. kane and chris and i are making squash soup with a parsnip and some potatoes and stuff. it looks like its gonna be good.

im feeling a little tired but alls well. oh yeah get this --

on tuesday i got on the highway to go somewhere. i realized that i hadnt been on the highway in a couple weeks, i really couldnt remember the last time i had been on the highway.

for the last couple weeks i had been in a routine where i wasnt going to many places and was always going to my folks place to get on the rowing machine and then just going home. and i guess i didnt really go on any trips outta town.

ive pretty much been staying in my own little triangle here, and havent needed to go many places far away. i do think i should start exploring the area a bit more tho, and go on some fun field trips.

not driving on highways made me realize how localized ive become. luckily ive scheduled a trip to los angeles from dec 4 - 11, so at least i have a good trip somewhere far away to look forward to.

i'm also planning on going up to vermont and new hampshire at some point in the next couple of months, maybe even a couple times.

basketball season starts tuesday. i will finally start hanging out in my room upstairs and make it the basketball haven. should be interesting, i hope its not too cold up there.

wow i wrote some. ok talk to you soon, D

the weather is supposed to be nasty this weekend. im hoping it isnt but im preparing for the worst. i've rowed in nearly unrowable conditions a couple times, so i think ill be alright. i just hope that people show up and that it's not too cold. or windy. or rainy.

i got a lil bit of a headache but i think itll go away, no big deal.

hey

hey how's it going? boston college beat florida state today. it was a great game. except that bc only attempted two passes in the 3rd quarter. you need to stop playing not to lose! but it was a really good game and the coaches and players should be very happy. good times.

got a haircut today, went to whole foods, watched a ton of football. went to the 24 hour cvs, hung out, might play the ps3 a little bit.

sun's out...oh wait no it's not

malator...lol

i even did a load of laundry today. i've learned the strategy with me and laundry -- to ensure that i wash, dry and fold the same load of laundry in the same day i have to only do ONE load per day. but it works. yahhh

ive got my weight at 200 but im gonna try to lose a couple pounds of beer by head of the charles (two weeks). i'm feeling good and fit but i've been pretty reckless about eating so i gotta be a little more careful here these next two weeks

but it looks like it might be 70 and sunny tmrw. wha?!?!

aright i'm havin a good time ill talk to you soon
