Labor Day

it feels good to have a day off after i spent the whole summer working.
well thats not true.
i spent the beginning of my summer lying in a drug-induced coma while my parents periodically poured beef broth into my mangled and swollen mouth to keep my body from eating itself.
just for comparisons sake, last summer at that time i was in europe.
then after that i had my internship, but ill tell you guys about that later.
i dont want to do anything today.
the only thing ive done was go on wikipedia to read the labor day article.
apparently it all came about because there were these big strikes going on and the military killed some of the workers.
so congress gave them monday off.
thats the greatest idea ever.
the workers were probably all like: “do you hear the people sing, singing the song of angry men, it is the music of a people – wait what? three-day weekend?! badass! theyre gonna need someone else to man the barricades because me and the family are taking the jet ski out on the lake! later!”
only they didnt have jet skis back then, so they were probably taking their horse drawn dirigibles out on the lake.
that probably didnt go so hot.
still you could probably weasel yourself a whole week after that!
ive missed you guys.
more soon.
