Greens, Streets, and Hooligans.
Another exciting day in the Notts, this one spent waking up painfully late and spending long hours in lines at H&M, Topmale, SportsWorld, and TopMale again.... Today was a day of consumerism, commercializm, and overpopulization, and my bank account reflects it...
The selection of football jerseys was amazing at SportsWorld, and the sheer Euro-ness of Topmale and H&M made me feel like the trashy American that I am.
For a better understanding, here are some pics that reflect the crowded nature of the day, and some leftovers from last night's brawl in front of The Lion.
The friendly neighborhood speakeasy, The Lion, looking somewhat hazy thanks to careless phototaking....
Brandon's careless actions leave my coat in shambles.... God i look trashy....
I teach Brandon a valuable lesson: rip my coat, and i'll break your folder. The folder thus broken, he waved it around in defeat, only to have his papers fly into oncoming traffic.....
A very busy city centre, this view of a building i am not familiar with, on a street i cannot name at this moment....
The joys of a double decker bus, this just a block from our flat.... it's like I'm driving.....
Wall o Jerseys.... about 20 pounds each, roughly 40 US dollars. name a team, it was up here... i'll take requests... maybe you wanna paypal me the cash? we'll talk later.
As much as i'd like to pretend that i bought this jersey, something about a child's size 'age 7' didn't quite fit the bill... so the wait continues....
The question: Will it ever turn to fall here? colors maybe? Anything?
Answer: no, probobly not.
This picture is amazingly paparazzi'esque, but for the sake of pointing out morons in Nottingham, it had to be included... i'm not sure if it was the newfound interest in Robin Hood thanks to a new BBC series, or if these people were just exceptionally lame, but the hats speak for themselves.
The positives: I have enough sweaters to clothe a small nation. I have Christmas presents for the little guy. I am currently riding a shopper's high.
The negatives: I am hungry, and the pizza is taking forever. I am poor, and need a job.

Tomorrow: possible cross practice, reading for Geology, reading for Luther classes, watching my Food Network DVD from the 'rents, hopefully finishing Arrested Development, possibly downloading LOST Season Three Episodes One and Two (yes, it deserved all of those caps...)

kevin my love,
1. i'm jealous of you for: Food Network DVDs, LOST, cool pubs, the Wall o Jerseys, cookies, pizza, sleeping in, and planning to travel basically all of Europe in a matter of months.
2. what i can hang in front of your face...so to speak: lions, zebras, rice and beans, sex and overall Luther-love in less than 2 months, and my left-leaning-member.
3. i both thoroughly enjoy and love your witty prose and captivating European ramblings however 'lame' they may be...keep it up, only heed Brandon's advice and get off your ass once in awhile.
4. i love you
5. let's skype again sometime...only without the throng of riveting yet confusingly overwhelming chaos that is "skype conference call".....let's try to always keep it to a 3 person max please. my four second delay can't handle anything else.
6. love and ponies
peace,
boozizzle
