The Good Fight.

September 18, 2009

Well, I put up the good fight, but Old Man Winter is winning.

Summer is done.

Having such dark, cold winters as we do in Montreal, I think we develop an unconditional love for summer.  Road trips, BBQ’s, weekends at the cottage. All three were personal favourites of mine this year, and here are the highlights.

#3

- McDonald’s breakfast feast.

- Almost getting into a car accident because of someone’s new glasses.

- Seeing my Dad, and wishing him a happy birthday

- Getting absolutely soaked in thunderstorm

- Listening to hard rap I forced on people a democratically elected list of music on the drive back.

#4

- Delicious BBQ treats of all different types.

- Creative use of an empty 2 liter bottle coke bottle and other house hold items.

- Two separate conversations of people talking shit about me at the table, at the same time.

- Seeing most of my good friends together at the same time

# 5

- Weekend at the cottage with 4 good friends.

-Weekend at the cottage with good friends + a dozen or so 16-17 year olds smoking more pot then Snoop Dogg in 1993.

-Ruling over said horde by both Machiavellian methods – Fear and Love.

-Sitting indoors, listening to generic alternative rock, playing card games, feeling old – but in a good way.

-Making delicious food every night.

-Being in cottage-ish situations which caused us to ponder out loud:   “…this is how horror movies start…”

If you have something cool that happened this summer, feel free to post under this. I wanna hear whats went down these last 4 months. If its winter where you happen to be (thats for you Australians), tell me what happened this winter…I guess…
