It's been a fairly good night so far, unfortunately I've gone from Summit Extra Pale Ale to Moosehead to Smithwick's, which is quite the assortment for myself. I can't say its too far of a stretch though, from last night's Guinness to Mike's Hard to Guinness again.
Now that we've met over beer, we can begin. Another useless drunken quip dream from me. I've been a bit into biking lately (over the past year and a half or so?). I've promised my aunt I'd visit her some 200 miles away, it's a bit off from what I can quite expect of myself so far. I lack the motivation to go through with things, but I keep dreaming of the days that I'd get on my bike and keep going until the sun goes down, pitch a tent on the side of the highway and stake down for the night. I've spoken many times of heading out from home, every which way is always north (it's the only direction in which I know people).
Somehow this is always shattered by the fact that I'm either never motivated (i.e. sitting at my computer) or that when I really, truly wish to head out, it's either late at night or I'm drunk off my melon, or both.
I think a hundred miles is an easy task, I just need to get up off my ass and do it. Take my shit advice and do it, I'm sure you'll love it.
Off to another.

It's Past Five, I can start whenever I want
"Don't drink and dream, you'll wake up sad and hungover."
- Myself, sober.
Fuck that. Here I am, finished with work early and drinking down the shit and piss of some Sisyphean yeast-being. I'm young, white, and filled to the brim with dreams (and pee). Somewhere in the world opportunity was dropped on me, and here goes:
One of my favorite ideas of life beyond these college years involved (wait for it...) a motorcycle, a case of wine, friends across the country, and a cat. Luckily, I already have the cat. What I wish for myself is to take up a motorcycle, forget about any worldly problems that I may ever have, that death thing, student loans, future careers, forgetting I left the coffee pot on. Fuck it, (five years in college allows my creative writing to include expletives) I want to wake up one morning, strap in a few bottles, take a change of clothes, a few assorted items, hit the road and not look back. That will happen.
I hope that every at some point enjoys the taste of thought of road trips, alone or with your closest friends (or soon to be, as it may come). Hope is that fucked up drug that can keep people going even when they're out on the sidewalk, pushed up against newspapers, dirty diapers and cardboard, scavenging for a new home and a better life, (or even just to end the one they have, you may be suicidal, but you can at least hope for a sharp knife). Road trips are those things of eternal summers, some feel good aspect of life that us youth never wish to get rid of. Reality may say otherwise, but god damnit I'm going to buy a motorcycle and travel at least two-hundred feet.
Moral of the story: Shut up, you're drinking.

Start with a Shot
Here comes the cavalry. For this blog I will be discussing everything about getting drunk and exploring that unseen future that will more than likely never happen, but shit, I can dream can't I? Liver failure will probably become a frequent visitor, as will hopeless hangovers the morning after the unrealities that I wish to explore. Hell, you know what? Just for the literal audience, I'll toss in my fucked up dreams that I have the night after heavy drinking. The brain needs to unwind for all the crap I've funneled into it.
To begin: A shot of Sailor Jerry's.
Where to?: Anywhere.
I was riding the Greyhound the other day, working my way back home on a slow trip heading due south. Something about staring out the window is very conducive to putting someone into a dream-like state. The simplest explanation to my dream-revelation is this - Staring sober up at the clouds, you can almost see their cotton candy shapes and texture. Each piece pulls from another and the sky is filled with vanilla flavored sugar air. It's wonderful to think of how fucked up the sky would actually be if every diabetic had to run for cover the moment a cloud began to form.
Avoid sugar, kids.
