Wednesday morning, 10am. Drinkin'

A mutual friend came over and we started talking about life and stuff. I hadn't seen him all summer. I went to go pick him up from the airport where he's serving drinks. It's a good time. Drove out there in one giant straight line with the wind in the car and feeling the rush of freedom. Listened to a lot of indie music. He's trying to take the same class on international politics I took, which is lit. Essence of Decision is a good book if you're into the geopolitics of the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Also a fight broke out in the parking lot of the pizza joint I work at. Somebody leaned against someone else's car by accident and next think you know Gramps comes storming out of the nearby restaurant drunk and nearly unloading the fisticuffs on these local residents. I'm at a stage in life where I too, told him to calm down. Not going to tolerate bullshit in public spaces. A bunch of kids sitting nearby recorded the whole thing on their phone and will probably upload it to worldstar later. Great.
