Fire in the Sky

Besides the beach, I have also gone to see fireworks twice in the last two weeks. Both involved herds of people and hoards of alcohol. And burning. The fireworks themselves didn't impress me much, but the friendly festival atmosphere makes it worthwhile. Not many better chances to talk to lots and lots of random people. Good times.

Boxers on the Beach, originally uploaded by Hack Rambler.

I have been to the beach two weekends in a row. It takes less than half an hour from my house. Three years of living in the same place, and I never went to the beach. You might say I am a slow learner. No, I am not trying to make up for lost time... I don't think. Anyway....

A lot of the Hack that you see in this photo has died. Literally. I am molting. Never believe a sunscreen that says it is waterproof.

I find it somewhat ironic that while some of these girls are wearing bikinis that look just like underwear, I actually am wearing only my underwear.Due to unforeseen circumstances, I found myself beachbound with no swim gear, save boxers from the Gap. Complete with a rather inconveniently located gap. Well, usually it is convenient but not on this particular day. I wore the floatie donut to help me be more discreet.

Speaking of discretion, I discovered, via my ever-improving Japanese interrogation techniques, that all the girls except the white chick are in high school. Ergo my first ever triple-titled post. Which do you prefer? (Which title, that is.) Cast your vote now!

Ok, here's your post. That's about a thousand words, right? I hope so, because my muse is on vacation.

Only water? Yeah, right. I will write more when I can use my fingers too, and not just my thumbs.
