The Last Week in Pics

Last week, I ate something terrible and fought food poisoning for a few days. A diet of apple juice and gatorade isn’t the life for me. Somehow, I thought it was still a good idea to do yardwork. It went like this “rake for 2 minutes, lay down for 10 minutes, rake a bit more, dump leaves, lay down for 20 minutes, rake more, …” At one point, I spread out my hooded sweatshirt to lay on. Tucker would steal that spot when he wasn’t chilling in this spot.

I spent some time wondering the mall. You know how I do it. The Burlington Mall got a name change for the movie. Hot times.

Thankfully, summer is around the corner. That means I can put winter behind me. So the winter wheels got put in the corner of the garage and the summer wheels make an appearance.

I also got back into the swing of trading last week. I sent a ridiculous amount of vinyl to a friend in the UK and he has offered to send me some sneakers and candy. I plan on sending him a few more records along the way in hopes of receiving more amazing kicks. I broke out these today.

Sadly, the chocolate didn’t survive the flight. They arrived in what appeared a melted-frozen-re-melted state. For the most part, they tasted like dirt. Except for the almond one. That one held up the best.

Leaving my building one day, I said “SFKL!” If you know skfl, you know what I’m talking about. Pretty damn close.

And over the weekend, I hit up the 10th anniversary of the Metal & Hardcore fest. This year was very unhardcore. Cold World even cancelled (I found out later). They were the only hardcore band playing. Wow.

Here’s a picture of Behemoth ripping up a bible and trying to get the crowd to chant “Hey Hey Hey.” It was a little sad. When I think death metal, I don’t think of “Hey” chants.

Lastly, while I was in the men’s room, which was basically the smoking room, I saw this tag on the toilet paper dispenser. I figured Fred Hammer would approve and snapped a pic. Locals only!

Maybe I’ll add some non cell phone pics of Metal Fest up tomorrow. We’ll see. That crowd was soooo metal. It was good hanging with Pike, Merrick and Nick, and meeting new people like Bridgewater and Ramona. Good times.
