It's all coming together

  • YUUUSSSSS. Played pickup soccer today. God DAMN it feels good to be back on the horse. I was a little lagged because I also ran 4k this morning, but I played to the point of absolute exhaustion. I have butterflies. This is a regular thing, so I'll be back next week. Giddy giddy giddy giddy

  • Ran into a dude from Nashville. It was another one of those "oh hey, white guy" moments. This guy was special. Here's how the conversation went.

    -Me: "Hey man. What's up?"
    - Nash: "Howdy" (Seriously)
    -Me: "Where you from? Toronto here."
    -Nash: "I'm fram Nashville, Tannasee. Been hurr long?"
    -Me: "No man, landed last week. You?"
    -Nash: "Three weeks muhself. GITTIN' used to things though."
    **By this point he looks like he's milking it**
    -Me: "Alright, cool, man. Uh, this is my stop, so I'll see you later *eh*?" (I had to.)
    -Nash: (Big arm swing) "Y'alright then. Stay on yer horse."
    - ...
    -Me: "PFFFFFFFTT hahahahaha really? Really. That's a thing? Stay on your -- stay on your horse."
    -Nash: "What"
    -Me: "Oh come on. Okay fuck, igloos beavers hockey. Keep your puck on the ice."

    He forced a chuckle then found a seat on the train, half-waved, then looked straight ahead. If I ever see this hick again I'm gonna ramp it up even more.
