So, it's a Tuesday. I worked landscaping (shoveling in the hot sun) and then bartended/managed (where I did absolutely nothing). After work Brion and I rolled out for an hour of drinking between midnight and last call at the Land Ho. I was wearing my "I heart cougars" tshirt and got a ton of comments on it. Lately, any weeknight I go to the Land Ho wearing my products, I seem to make sales. Well, anyway, there is a built-in danger when you wear a tshirt that says you love Cougars. That is, sometimes you run into an actual cougar. This particular one was trying to catch my eye, but i was doing my best to ignore her. (p.s. as I'm currently writing this, Brion is drunk, talking to Mike G. in Lousiville, KY. Mike ... read more

The trip to Boston was again roughly 4 hours, this time travelling North. We arrived at the Hostel just before 7pm. In the evening without really knowing our way round, we got a cab into the area of Beacon Hill. Here we had some food at a Thai restaurant. We were going to go out after, but once we had eaten we decided to leave it tomorrow when we knew the place a little better. Instead of getting a cab back we took the time to walk around the city a bit before going back to the Hostel. Next morning we went into the city centre and walked the Freedom Trail. This is roughly a two hour walk lined out with a constant red line along the pathways taking you past many of Bostons historical ... read more

As holidays go, this was a fabulous one. As extended weekends go, this was absolutely top-notch. 9th July being our wedding anniversary, we decided to take our much-awaited holiday this weekend. The celebrations started on Friday night itself with the Cambridge Dance Party which is a free dance party in Central Square for all Cambridge residents. The music was good and it was a lot of fun. Day 1 - Action Packed adventures , lots of ocean and some lazing From Beantown to P-town We got up early in the morning to catch our ferry from Boston Harbour to Provincetown, which is at the tip of Cape Cod (See map). I highly recommend this fast ferry to anybody not wishing to drive to the cape.(www.bostonharborcruises.com) Its very comfortable and full of all amenities. Most importantly ... read more

Dave awoke this morning on the floor at the old Handsome Headquarters in Eastham around 645 am. He had to be at work in Brewster for a half day at 730. He coaxed Brady to driving him there because his car was MIA (the usual for an given Saturday morning). He drove Brady's car because Brady was still drunk from last night and doesn't have landscaping recuperative powers. Brady: "How are you doing this? You are an animal, " to which Dave replied it is his god-given talent. He arrives at work a solid 10minutes earlier than his boss, who also red hair and likes to drink. The morning is uneventful and I meet with Dave around 1230 to drag a couch out of Brandon's house. For our troubles, we received a picture of a ... read more

I am really excited and am preparing for the trip. I just wanted to start a base of where I've been, so here is the map: ... read more


I awoke this morning, slowly, to the sound of a fan going 'round and 'round. Moments later, Dave staggers into my bedroom and loudly proclaims that he'd like to kill himself. What? Huh? Oh yeah, another night out and none of us got ass. What is this, February? Then the night came back to me, seeing how we only went to bed a few hours ago anyways. You see, in the summer time, we don't sleep, we just take short naps between working and drinking. I sit up in bed and survey the wreckage: my cousin Brion, groggy and on my floor, my roommate Collin smoking on the back porch, our friend Sarah, comatose on the pullout couch. There was the Beachcomber in Wellfleet last night. I showed up around midnight, as I had to ... read more

We start our adventure in the quaint town of Chatham. For those who aren't aware, Chatham is the richest town on the Cape, which is saying something. So, when in the richest town, where do you head to? Why, the fanciest establishment in the entire town, of course, the Chatham Bars Inn. Let's set the scene: It was Sunday and sunny, so usually we head to the outer beach in Orleans, after harrassing every girl in our phones, and getting responses from something like 3 of them. However, because the stupid Piping Plovers are nesting, my $180 beach sticker is about as useful as tits on a bull. So, our friend Brandon (who bartends at the CBI) invites us to his beach bar. This will prove to be a decision he will come to regret, ... read more
