Just Cause We're Down Doesn't Mean We Gotta Stay There

My dad would be proud. I'm trying to get back into all the things him and I used to do together. Namely, fishing and hunting. It's definitely harder now that he's not paying for it all though lol. I haven't been fishing since I was probably 13 or 14 with Jesse Irvin. Last fish I caught was a 23inch Wall Eye. So that was a good note to end on I'd say. I'm going to try to get my fishing license before Saturday for the opening day of trout. Once school is out I'll be making ACTUAL money, so I can get me a pole, tackle, lures, yanno... fishin stuff. Til then I'll be bumming equipment off Johnny and Brent.

Cory and I are also going in on a gun or two this summer. A shotgun for sure, maybe a rifle, and a handgun as our birthday presents to ourselves. I can't wait to get up at 4am to go sit still in the freezing cold, wet, dark woods and eat granola bars for breakfast.

I think hunting and fishing will be a totally different experience as an adult. As a kid, it was pretty much something to do with my dad. Father-son bonding. Now, I think it'll be more recreational and relaxing. I miss the woods. I miss the outdoors. The REAL outdoors. You know what I mean. Not to mention all the delicious fresh meat I'll hopefully be getting. Can't wait, let's go now!

On a different subject, I've gotten my semi-annual senior-itis. At the end of every semester, like a lot of students I'm sure, I just get a serious case of the NO-CARES. It's almost over, summer is RIGHT there, I don't care about school. I just want out. Not good, I know. trying to get it under control.

No pictures eh?

  1. I am with you 100% on the senioritis. Holy shit. I think I'm more psyched to shoot things than I am to fish though. More exciting in a way. Plus I like guns. We gotta get that fuckin Marine Magnum!
