Weeknotes 26-32

Connor came to visit this week!!! Hello Connor if you’re reading this lol. It was fun to hang out!!! It’s been a couple of years(????) which is crazy. Delton came down to visit too and we made plans to visit them in Maine which will be fun! Also Big Walk came out and I’ve gotten together a big group to play tonight which I’m very excited about. Been looking forward to this game since announce!!!!

Wednesday Sean and I and like 25 other people from pinball went to the Red Sox game at Fenway since someone they’re all friends with designed the commemorative jersey for the theme night (celebrating women). Really fun!!!! We got the bleacher seats allllll the way at the top which meant we kinda had the whole area to ourselves, which was a huge vibe. I forgot that you could bring in outside food so I spent far too much money on hotdogs and chicken tendies which I deeply regret. ALSO it was kinda crazy wearing a red sox jersey and suddenly all these guys are talking to me like I know what’s going on???? As Adam from work said, “you put on the right costume and all of a sudden you’re one of them”.

Thursday was another pinball day, it was a split flipper tournament and I got second by pure luck of being matched with people who are really good lol. It was fun though!!!

Friday was coworker Brina’s birthday!!!! We hung out at a brewery and then went to the local arcade after, where I got to show Jonah and Brina The House of the Dead 2 and Time Crisis 4. Both very fun games, though the guy on TC4 before us was soooooo good. He was on stage 3 and every time his partner died he would pass over two more quarters without taking his eyes off the screen and still shooting. So sick honestly………

The weekend was generally Chill. I listed a ton of clothing on ebay which I’ll continue to do in the upcoming weeks for sure. I just have so much I never wear! A ton of it is 10+ years old at this point which is impressive that it’s held up so well (I’m selling a Porter Robinson Worlds tee from 2014) but it’s just more and more evident that because I have all of these old shirts, I haven’t let myself get anything new because I have so much already, but I barely wear any of it to begin with. So I think this is the start of a bigger wardrobe refresh I hope.

The bulk of my wardrobe I bought near the end of and right after college (almost 10 years ago lmao) and I kinda dressed the same for quite a while after that, and it wasn’t until the last two years or so that I’ve really started to shift how I dress. I think it was the 3sixteen RS jeans I got that really kicked it off. Like I got that Naked & Famous denim jacket in Montreal and I found myself barely wearing it since I wasn’t sure how to really style it, but last year I locked in and figured it out and it’s become a staple in my outfit rotation now. Sadly so much of how I dress is controlled by my office’s AC which is too cold in the summer and too hot in the winter, so while I love my collection of nice wool sweaters, I straight up cannot wear them ever because the office is simply too hot to ever wear something that warm. Maybe I’ll end up selling some this fall!!!!

Okay time to go play Big Walk byeeeeeeee

Things I’ve been into this week!!!
