I made several pool shots with a shaky hand.
In the morning Chris made us pancakes. They were probably the most delicious pancakes I have ever had the pleasure to consume. I had four pancakes.
We took off for the city on an otherwise beautiful day, disoriented. We went to a sports bar that had on every single NFL game. In the stall of the bathroom inside the sports bar, I found this nugget of weed:
It was good weed. I wish that picture had turned out better. I showed B the picture and he was like, "Where is that nug now?" I said I left it by the toilet where I found it. He went back to the stall and grabbed it. I thought it was a little disgusting since it had been on the bathroom floor of a sports bar. But it was good weed and I guess when you burn the weed to smoke it you are most likely killing most of the bacteria. To each his own.
Later, we saw Guided by Voices play at Terminal 5. Blitzen Trapper opened. We missed most of Blitzen Trapper because we were smoking cigarettes on the roof deck, talking to some guy who said he was good friends with the lead singer of Brian Jonestown Massacre. The guy also told us basically his whole life story, but I made sure to fake-laugh and pretend I was interested because what else can you do in situations like that?

Wow. Those songs are so great. The whole show was great: the microphone twirls, the kicks, the tequila and Miller Lite. The sound in Terminal 5 kind of sucks--the bass was especially ugly at times--but to hear these tunes live was an immensely enjoyable experience. It was a good weekend.
We took a cab to the PATH. I get so depressed waiting for trains:
When we got back to Hoboken we went to a diner and ordered pork roll, egg and cheese sandwiches. Then we drove home. We talked about fantasy football for most of the drive.
