It's beginning to look a lot like fuck this

* It's cold and that's stupid. =k *



Just to reiterate, we had a great time with Henry. Here are some animations that didn't make it in to last week's post:

Look closely.

Schwifty.

,,104 (Mon, Dec 12^th)

I finally made this work!

Here's Charlotte sleeping :]

We basically just went to the mcdonald's parking lot to steal wifi for Charlotte to do last week's post. We hung out there for a little bit then went back to Henry's to finish splitting the rest of the wood (yes, somehow we got through all of it).

We can (did) do it! Like a boss.

After that shite, we had some hoot doogs for dinner and then watched I Love You, Man, which we were happy to see that Henry also found hilarious.

..105 (Tue, Dec 13^th)

It was my birthday! Hoowee. We had some breakfast by ourselves this time. Henry went to work and his mom had some things to do too, so they were both gone almost all day. I think Henry arrived right around sunset. Maybe.

Breakfast of homemade deer sausage (from Henry's uncle) with some cheddar and fried eggs on toast! So good.

Here's a better shot of the wood we helped split and stack.

I picked some pieces from the pile to start new carving projects!

Here's the back of their house, from their backyard (which includes a creek).

We hung our tent's rain cover up to dry and air out from all of our farty sweat.

This was going well until I broke it right near the top. The wood is quite rotten and I don't know how to use an axe.

I made stir fry for everyone for dinner! It was pretty good, probably my best fried rice yet.

I had a nice birthday, especially throwing everyone off and making them dinner instead of the other way around. I was obviously happy to do it and I'm glad it came out well. We hung out the rest of the night, just relaxing. Henry gave me a gorgeous little stone box and his mom got me a hand-painted tree pen. Like an ent pen. Anyway here look I just took a picture:

Thanks again, Henry and Elsie!

Blah blah blah, then we went to bed.

,.106 (We, De 14^th)

I did some more work on the carving and shits, finally made the hole for the hook knife that Nathan made me (thanks again!) but I didn't epoxy it in today. Actually, I have yet to do that. Maybe I'll do it while we're at Martin's in Brooklyn...

Charlotte modeled the tool for me :] Again, that's elderberry wood cause the bark is awesome.

This is a conglomeration of pretty much all I'm working on. Or started working on. It's like 9 different things.

Then we had lunch! At like 3... which ended up being stupid because it turns out that Henry didn't eat at all, saving up his stomach space for some wonderful seafood later that night! It was gonna be like our last dinner and when we first hung out we were going to get seafood but ended up changing our minds like twice before settling on eating at the Devil's Backbone brewery. Anyway, here were our lunches:

Charlotte's second or third meal of chili, cheese, and chips in a hot dog bun.

I had the leftover fried rice which was almost a dinner in itself.

Unfortunately Henry got home like minutes after we finished eating but was graciously willing to wait a little so I could digest some of the crap I stuffed myself with which was nice. So... we went to the seafood place and it was closed. Like maybe permanently. There was paper inside on the windows and everything. So that sucked. We went to Blue Mountain Brewery then, had some dinner there. It was fun, the waiter probably saw us looking at menus and other places to go on our phones, was kinda confused, asked whether we wanted drinks and then whether we wanted the menus taken away... He handled it well enough overall, though he made some weird jokes and had strange attempts at connecting or whatever. Anyway. It was fine. Well, my crab cake sandwich actually was just bland and fish-tasting. Charlotte had the best meal, she had a roast beef sandwich. But even hers wasn't perfect, the bread was supposed to be jalapeno corn bread but it was more like texas toast... so yeah.

Then Henry and I went to the bathroom:

Henry is such a star. (I can't even handle this holy shit Henry what are you doing hahahahahahaha, but yeah you're totally a star : ) -C)

We went to Devil's Backbone again after dinner for mixed drinks cause they didn't serve liquor at Blue Mountain. It was nice, I had a perfect manhattan for the third time ever and it was like the first time I had it - delicious.

This is Henry's friend, TimOthy!

We had some good times, but TimOthy can be a little expressionless.

Charlotte was rude about this activity.

So we went to the bathroom again.

Piss trough!

We actually left as soon as we finished our drinks because apparently they had been "closed" for an hour. The bartender told us that she has to stay basically until the last seated table leaves - they had just left and we all felt bad (despite three other douches sitting at the bar) and left her with a nice tip. Just the tip. I mean we didn't pay for drinks. No, I'm just kidding, we paid for drinks, but we didn't leave her a tip. Haha! Gotcha 'gain. We paid for drinks AND gave her a tip.

On the way home, Charlotte stood up and had her torso up out of the sunroof. That's something she had always wanted to do and I was so glad that she got to do it. We both were thinking about it which is great because I told her what I was thinking and then she actually did it. Pitch black, straight open mountain road. So great. 

We hung out around the fire the rest of the night, until... shit, 4 o'clock? I think Henry and I played Terraria til 4.

Last-day-at-Henry's bathroom picture

Elsie had arranged some things on the table the night before and I thought it looked good too.

Henry can fuckin draw, yo! He had taken lessons for years, apparently, and will be drawing me a birthday thing!

For breakfast (around noonish), we had kippers which were quite delicious.

After some sitting around and then packing up, we said our goodbyes and headed off, to Maryland.

Some bathroom along the way, at a rest stop on 95 in NJ.

We got to Jason right as the pizza was delivered and he jumped in the back to direct us to parking!

Jason's bathroom! Wooo. That long sleeve is from Henry! Woowooo.

**108 (F, D 16^th)

Fucking cold. Holy tits. Yes, we slept under there.

We had breakfast (as in we broke fast, as in we ate our first meal) around noonish at a place called Ram's Head, where Jason had a "Ram-mosa" or however the fuck they spelled it. We got groceries after that then started laundry when we got back. I say started because sure we moved the clothes to the dryer and dried them, but we didn't fold them for a long fucking time after that.

Jason and I of course played some video games. Charlotte hung out too, sometimes on her computer also playing games, sometimes reading a book, or doing some other cool shit that I may never comprehend.

We of course played Just Cause 2 again. I landed a boat on top of another boat.

Oh, you know, just holding on for dear life as Jason flies an airplane into the sun.

I found a tank!

We started a new Terraria world and built this house with the new holiday blocks! Then we switched to better characters cause holy shit starting from the beginning just sucks.

We had steak and potatoes for dinner and it was delicious. Jason used a marinade that his family has always used and the steaks were pretty juicy and delicious.

Another day, another dollar.

Of course I got doiritos, why even ask? Yes, I continue to open bags upside down thinking of my sister Martha.

We watched the first mothafuckin power rangers movie!

We had some snacks while we watched the power rangers and I actually don't remember what we had for dinner...nope wait it was hamburger helper there ya go (lol that's Charlotte trying to rewrite my sentence to make it sound like it's still me hahaha good job). Well, whatever, here are some fridge magnets!

wooooo

~~110 (Sunday, December 18^th)

Feast of french toast, eggs, bacon, and potatoes for brunch.

That breakfast was delicious. We hung out after eating for a little before going back downstairs. I ended up putting on a movie we got recently, Sausage Party. I had that on the tv while Jason and I played Minecraft or whatever. That movie... man holy shit what the fuck. Jason and Charlotte are forever scarred. It seemed like a movie that was made just because hey what a crazy thing if this was a movie that people watched. Well, it was pretty ridiculous. Not sure I recommend watching it. I mean check it out if you wanna see some weird shit and like food porn or whatever. Shit, maybe you'll enjoy the fuck out of it and shit your brains out with joy or whatever. I don't know what you do.

WE GOT JETPACKS

Always a nice time hanging out with Jason. We'll be seeing him again when we pass through on our way to Florida. We'll see Henry along the way, too. But that's after the holidays. Next up is Brooklyn and then we'll be puttering about for christmas and shit.
