it's been a quiet last couple of days. school and work on tues, wed, and friday. thursday can be forgotten quickly as i was laid up feeling like utter use-less-ness for the entire day and night. since thursday i have been battling the creeping crud. i find it humorous that right after i read an article about not blowing your nose when your stopped up, that i, myself, become stopped up and cant stop blowing my nose, even though some scientist says "dont do that!" anyways, the week ended with an adequate score on the GRE yesterday, followed by a smidgen of hw, nap, and low key chillin....
...now, to the point...
last night was valentines day. the commercial bastardizing of love, just as Christmas has become the commercial bastardizing of giving. i didnt feel like going out, or getting into much, the reasons two fold: 1) creeping crud, remember 2) money need not be spent. so i decided to just chill over on harper ave. for those of you who have not been over on harper on a chill night, you may not comprehend what goes on. it's usually just us bored fellas chillin, takin it easy, doin what we like. usually it includes improv jam sessions led by the explosion. (the neighbor's friend enjoyed our version of "ride wit me" and "wagon wheel") but it donged on me, that this what v-day should be, everyday, spending time with folks you can relax and enjoy being around. i guess really, we arent bored at all! no need to get cards, candy, or expensive meals only to gripe about having to leave 15% on top for tip.
it took me back to the way i use to spend most nights. at the pearl, when chad, fatty, marshall, any company, and i would do this on virtually every night. keep it low key and enjoy the fellowshp and cuttin up. andre 3000 has it right, "Happy Valentine's Day, Every day the 14th! I don't think y'all heard me! I just wanna say Happy Valentine's Day! Every day the 14th! Can y'all dig that?"
cheers!
