After a full year of clawing for a better job, I just got an offer from a fantastic company 10 mins. away from my place with a hefty pay raise. I’ve got a free month of May ahead of me replete with the Kentucky Derby, a fraternity brother’s wedding, time with the folks, and tearing it up in DC with my college buds.
Beers will be had this weekend in vast & frightening quantities.
Tonight: guys night at the bars where I will undoubtedly make an ass out of myself. Tomorrow: spending the day with beautiful girl, taking her to an 80s themed party, and making some magic happen. Sunday: my buddy and I are hiking in the mountains and partaking in some of Colorado’s finest herbs. Should be a good weekend all around.
At first light, I took a shower, drank a beer, and blasted “Shipping Up to Boston”. The next eight hours of my day will be a mix of 1) looking like I’m busy and 2) skipping over to the pub at lunch for shepard’s pie and an Irish coffee. Once that clock hits 5:00, I will drive home to the dulcet tones of the Wild Rovers. My evening will consist of drinking enough Guinness to sedate a small Somali village, singing old sea shanties at the top of my lungs, and wooing the opposite sex with my wit, charm, and aggressively average good looks.
Happy St. Patty’s day everybody! Let’s make our ancestors proud.
