Good evening friends! I will be attempting to make chili for the roommates and myself as i type this, so if i lose my train of thought at a few points of this... well, it probably won't be much different than any other posts!! Curse my inability to focus on anything.

Today, i think I'd like to discuss Lil' Wayne. Rap has been a guilty pleasure for me for the past 6ish years, and in the recent past, i've been feeling less guilty about it. It's good for dancin', makes me feel badass when i'm in the mood to, and... well i dunno, I'm of the opinion that the more you listen to something, the more you like it. That being said, I'm not into country currently. BUT i did have a country phase when i was younger. Everyone stop being so close minded! The current song stuck in my head is replay by Iyaz. It's like my iPod's stuck on replay. Eff.

Anyway, Lil' Wayne!! I don't see what's so special about him. He (like every other R&B artist nowadays) uses a voice synthesizer, and i don't think his rhymes are that impressive most of the time. Don't get me wrong, i still like a lot of his stuff. But greatest rapper of all time? I think not. The only thing truly impressive about him is that he freestyles most everything he does. And I'm not even sure if that's true! My cousin Sam said so, but what does he know? I think there are lots better rappers out there. Also, his voice kind of annoys me.

I finished the chili!! And it was good. Well, i liked it anyway. My roommates SAID they liked it, so I'm beginning to think I'm pretty good at this cooking thing. Even though chili is the easiest thing ever to make.

The weekend is rapidly approaching once more, and i am getting very excited!! Andy's friend Lauren is coming, and we are all gonna hang out and do crazy things!! (if you want to participate, and you're in the area, give me a ring!!) There is one problem though...

Last year i think i reached a potentially unrepeatable level of fun, and the thought of surpassing it is staggering.

Last year, Andy, Aaron, and myself were all pretty drunk, and we went to the bathroom coincidentally at the same time. When we got there, the radio was playing. The song? Kung Fu Fighting by Carl Douglas. The three of us exchanged looks, and immediately took up our fighting stances in a triangular type formation. We proceeded to do slow motion kung fu (including short 1v1 interludes when one of us was temporarily kicked out of battle or some such (into a stall)) until the song ended. I feel pretty certain that i have never had such a good time. Epic? Definitely.

Sad? Maybe.

So this weekend, I'm hoping i can convince a few more people to join me in beer stick land (it's happy here) and maybe, if I'm lucky, we may join in mortal combat. Or just slow motion full contact kung fu. Either way. Either way is fine.
