But Everything Looks Perfect From Far Away

Erik texted me this photo he took of himself in the suburb where I lived in junior high. How cool is that?

Soooooo, Erik comes back to visit on Friday. Once again, I'm as giddy as a 42 year old school girl (I got held back a few times). Hopefully, he will be able to stay until Tuesday because I have Monday off for MLK Day.

What's on tap for the visit, you ask? So far it looks like we'll have some people over for potato leek soup and salad and bread and cheese and beer and stuff on Friday night. Saturday afternoon, a friend of Stinky's who is also the daughter of one of Erik's good friends is coming over to learn how to make sushi. She was a little jealous that Stinky got to do that with Erik last time, so they're all going to make more - my friend K. might even join in. Stinky has already said that she thinks Erik is gangster(ah), (which is a good thing, if you weren't sure) so this will just bring him into a whole different realm in her eyes.

Saturday night we're going to head to North Liberty to a bar where one of Erik's friends works and then who knows? Sunday will be reserved for football watching, of course. And that's about as far as we've gotten. It leaves room for any number of fun things, like porn watching, drug experimentation and midget bowling...The possibilities are endless. All I have to do is get a whole bunch of nesting shit done tomorrow.

Churlta,
Don't the midgets get all bruised?
Have a great weekend!

but what about experimental midget porn watching?

Seriously though, (right) I happen to like midgets, I think they are cool. If I see anyone using a midget to knock down pins at the end of an alley, I will have to hurt them.

Have fun with those activities...sounds like you got it all worked out.

Are the midgets rolled down the alley in midget bowling, or do you stand them as pins? Or do you do both?

I'm almost positive it's gangsta and not the very proper gangst-er, but whatev. I was a teenager soooo long ago. Who can keep up?

Have fun this weekend!

Fun, fun weekend. One day Erik needs to help me make sushi--I have all these ktis I have never used. I will be roaming through the area this weekend as well...

I think we should all make that extra effort to be a little bit more gangsta every day.

Have a very nice, long weekend! Our offices are open for MLK day. Blah. Oh well. If you do some midget bowling, take some photos, will you please? :)
