Sitting back on this hot summer night replying to old emails.

$6.99/6-pack at Lake Street Liquors. Last time I was here they were running low and we joked with one of the owners or managers (he’s here all the time). He said lately it’s been unusually and surprisingly "popular," and I said that I was 100% responsible for that. He promised he’d start ordering more at a time. So today, sure enough, here are 72 cans. Most I’ve ever seen at once.

Friend Brian got a Sparks sticker for me. It is the same size as an actual can, and it found it’s home on the side of my microwave in the kitchen.


Afterbar yellow arrow hunt. Found it hidden here by a hiptop Nation regular. Small world it is.
It’s been here a very long time. Finally got the motivation tonight to come down and stop.






I was on the Downtown Action Network with Rodney and two others. We played against Associated Bank and won 12-9 in 12 ends.











Free music in the plaza between Orchestra Hall and Brit’s Pub. Savage Aural Hotbed — surprisingly very good percussion group.






Matt was late due to a flat tire and a road closure, so my cousin Deanna came by to keep my company in the meantime. As she’s 16, she ordered a Arnold Palmer.
Jamie, who works there spent some time with us chatting after she welcomed me with a scratch on the back, a few pokes in the arm and a fake english accent. When she was off the clock she had a beer with us and joked around and flirted… we exchanged cards in our wallets: she got a Noodles and Company card of mine with 8 out of the 10 punches punched, while she gave me a Dunn Brothers card so my next coffee will be half off. She also got my Blockbuster Video card. Then before she leaves, in a backwards way tells me she just got engaged. That explains the new ring! I hope I never have a fiancee that flirts so much with guys like me. Heh.
Deanna’s family ended up showing up later. Four pints of Guinness was good enough. A good night.





White Mitsubishi Diamante, MN Plate: "MEEOOWW."


Thursday night had a fire. Friday night had a fire. Saturday night had about 20 friends over and had a fire. Tonight, another fire. This time just 7 of us, though.



After I mowed the lawn, Amy and her friend Chrissy came over to help clean out the fridge, freezer and some cupboards. We gave the cats Simon and Porter some company as well. Watered plants, the garden, fixed the fire ring, and I am bringing home some european candies and some other foods and drinks.
The large majority of the food that was in the house Randy wouldn’t eat, and Amy and I didn’t want. Everything that was still good is being donated to a local food shelf.
