Fun burn and crab cakes
Category: food

(e:James) and I hit Bennett beach for the first time this summer and
while it's not half as fun on a windless/waveless day, it was still
pretty awesome. I got sun burned for the first time in years although
it's pretty mild and just on the top of my chest. It seems like
wherever there is hair I don't burn and there is hair just about
everywhere.

The reason I look so crazy in this pic is because I was trying to
press my sun burn and show the white finger marks but it was almost
impossible to time with the iPhone camera. You can still see four white finger marks on my upper chest.

Afterwords, we ate at Dug's Dive on route five right near downtown but on the other side if the skyway. The seafood selection was amazing.

I want to go back asap. We both had crabcake burgers and then split a side order of butter topped with sweet potato fries, lol. I uploaded
some menu snapshots but sadly forgot to take pics of the actual food. I saw someone eating clams and they looked so good.

After that dinner we went to matt sisters birthday at pearl street and
ate another dinner and drank lots of beer.

Then it's one more stressful day of work followed by a bunch of day's
off while terry's mom is visiting.

I love the smell of fish, but I did not notice one except by the dude eating a bucket of clams. And yes, there is a ton of space outside to sit. Not sure if it is business owned, but there was a lot of wharf space that looked open.

Thanks for the menu. I am severely allergic to seafood. I was happy to see I could order something else. Silly questions: Is there a strong seafood odor? Is there a place to sit outside? I've really wanted to go sketch the marina and they look like a cool place to hang out.

It was an excellent day. Thanks for having me along.

Lame Al

When I first saw this on the subway last night, i thought, what kind
of business person would name themselves lame al. Then I realized it
was Spanish.

The subway ride home from the fireworks was crazy, there were like 50
million people on the packed train.

tinypliny - 07/05/09 19:10
Heheheh... 50 million people. Are you sure it wasn't 52? Heidi, Adrian and I waited around a little before catching a later train. The crowds had thinned out substantially.

I saw one train go by and it looked insane my #3 bus wasn't to bad, hope you had a great time last night

Great night on the town
Category: people

Last night I went out with (e:jim) and (e:james) and forgot to take any pictures.

We went out on Allen where we met a bunch of interesting people including a girl who was friends with (e:enknot) and megan and who had no pet furry animals. To everyone else that probably seems like no big deal but in the last ten years I have met maybe 1 or 2 people that have no furry pets, which I am terribly allergic to.

I think the best part of the evening was grilling steaks at like 3:00am instead of going to Jim's steak out. The only thing was the grill decided to run out of gas part way through, which sucked. Thank god for the broiler although we enjoyed it deliciously pink anyways. This picture is not of our steak but of a steak with a very similar look I stole from

dimartiste - 07/05/09 13:42
hmmm...steak! I love steak. Yeah, me too! I am seriously allergic to so many things and furries especially. All my friends have at least one furry, so it seriously affects how long I can hang out sometimes or the need to go somewhere else. I've gone to the park many times and the bpo and the fireworks are great! This year my aunt put on a big shin dig. I like the steak! Mouthwatring!

james - 07/04/09 19:21
Thanks for the lovely evening out.

metalpeter - 07/04/09 16:31
Just to clairfy On the buisness thing I mean it would be a service not only for you but for all kinds of people, who forget their camera or who don't have one. I also hope you find your camera.

lilho - 07/04/09 16:09
i love me some steaks!

paul - 07/04/09 12:46
What really needs to happen is that I need to find my camera. I think it has been missing since the new year's party. Its one of those things were I surely put it on top of or inside of something to keep it safe but was too stupid to remember where I put it.

metalpeter - 07/04/09 12:19
I thought about going on allen but thought better of it, glad you had a good time. Maybe you need someone to follow you around and just take pictures, HA. It would be like your own personal version of Buffalo Bar Fly. I'm not really good enough to be the person who does that, but I think it could be a good business for some one to do.

Warcraft style beer

This picture was from the back of the beer Delivery truck near kunis.
(e:enknot) mentioned it looked like a Warcraft ad for beer which I
though would be perfect for (e:Terry)

Screw the Beer I want the Wench
