Summer Checklist Revisited

Ok folks, now that summer is coming to a close, it is time for me to look back on a potential checklist for a college student home for the summer, and what actually happened on the path to achieving these goals.

1. Eat Healthier Food/Average 3 Hot Pockets per hour

2. Read Some Novels/Read a Sharper Image catalog on the toilet

3. Sleep With The Hot Girl From High School/Jerked it so much that my sheets look like they have been snowed on

4. Master The Guitar/Can now play the chorus section to Bon Jovi’s Livin’ On a Prayer

5. Learn Something New/Figured out that jacking off with two hands feels a bit like an orgy

6. Run 5 Miles a Day/Can’t drive 3 miles without breaking a sweat

7. Watch Less TV/Watched every episode of Full House

8. Watch Fewer Movies/Watched The Postman and Weekend at Bernies biweekly

9. Get a Good Internship/Scrubbed shit and piss off of toilets for gas money

10. Spend Time Outdoors/Saw the sun once, threw up everywhere

11. Don’t Drink and Drive/Shotgunned beers on the hood of my car while ghost riding it

12. Work On My Novel/Did a really hard maze in Ranger Rick Magazine

13. Get a Tan/Caught some rays next to the microwave while working on my H Pockets

14. Go To Tons of Concerts/Thought about seeing Hootie and the Blowfish, realized I was about to see Hootie and the Blowfish, got drunk instead

15. Drink Less/Drank Tons

16. Drink Good Beer/Drank Schlitz

17. Get Motivated By Michael Phelps/Drunk drove like Michael Phelps

18. Get Ready For Next Semester/Thought about transferring to ITT Tech

19, Do Something Unheard Of/Whacked it to Shark Week

20. Seriously, Do Nothing/Check

So I didn’t really accomplish much. Oh well, there’s always next summer.

A Christmas Larceny

I used to work for a chinese computer company that no longer exists; one Christmas Eve a man comes into the store right as we are closing and counting money and insists that we start up the Point of Sale system again and sell him the video card he reserved online. We tell him that the computers have been shut down and all the transactions of the day batched and sent to the... Read More » credit card vendor. He keeps telling us that it's already paid for etc. and we keep telling him we can't process any more transactions until the morning of Dec. 26th. He then takes out a revolver and makes us lay on the floor while he steals the cash drawers and takes off. Turns out he had in fact reserved the video card online and his full name, address and phone number were in the system along with his email address; i bet his New Year sucked.
