Another mystery.

Today I was pissed. Today I had one of those "why do I live here" moments. I woke up in a shitty mood and all i wanted to do was sit in my awesome pirate ship pool, listen to metal, and chill out.


(what it looked like before)

Instead, I walked out to this:


(after. Sorry about the quality, it was dark when i took the picture)

So i stomp inside, thinking maybe Jimmy deflated it for some reason. No. Supposedly, stray cats tore the shit out of it. Ugh. So instead I pouted and sat in my room all day and watched Rob Zombie movies. My day got a little better when a myspace message pointed me to a certain missed connection:

Block Party - m4w - 26 (Logan Square)

You had a sleeve, a sweet purple bike, and an even more awesome dog.




I wish I got your number.

Yes,yes, yes. This is my first that I know about. That put me in a better mood, at least. After a trip to Target, where I broke the news to Jimmy about our pirate ship, we went in the backyard to investigate. We stared at the pool for a good minute, even mentioning how the grass was dead already before we noticed this:


(wtf)

So thank you to whoever broke our pool and then bought us a new one. Even Nate interrupted his 8 hour video game binge to come look. That brings up my next thought....what happened to Nate's shirt?
