one third of the way deep into the year, and we, dear readers, feel as though we have a degree of accounting to do with you all. well, less to you and more ourselves to be honest. as promised, we wish to revisit our list of new years resolutions to share with you the progress we are making in these superficial goals we decided to strive towards this year…
1. still not care about how much we curse so long as we are learning several new vocabulary words a day.
status: smooth fucking sailing.
2. learn how to do a wheelie.
status: decidedly in progress still, as we cannot get past that point where one is done with eating shit and is actually perched on one wheel. needless to say, we have gotten over our fear of falling, which is a small victory in its own right.
3. travel
status: for real accomplished. early july- pdx. late july- road trip to montana with one of our favorite miscreants. september- budapest/prague/vienna/possibly berlin. december- maui no ka oi.
4. continue pure and total abstinence from emoticons.
status: completely free of insipid smiley faces and whatever bullshit pictograms are the vogue for communicating.
5. write every day.
status: though you dear readers often get the short end of our writing stick, we can whole heartedly assure you that writing every day is happening. we are currently working on a weird short story and tackling our voluminous correspondence.
6. learn to ride a motorcycle.
stauts: moto lessons in the immediate future with one of our motorcycle babe friends.
7. go on a long train ride.
status: for sure. budapest to vienna- 3 hours. vienna to prague- 4 hours. Prague to budapest- 7 hours
8. more house parties.
status: there aren’t enough days in the week.
we here at casual friday are feeling pretty good about things. perhaps a lowered bar is truly the road to happiness…
😀
vomit.
and the train ride from Oakland to Eugene is about 15 hours…talk about long train rides that will give you lots of new bad words to use! But Berlin sounds a bit more exciting than downtown Eugene. Write on! unk B
