thanksgiving

got up and went to the farm in my orange hat
arrived just after one of my uncles got the first rabbit
grabbed my shotgun and a cigar and joined my uncles beating the brush
we ended up getting another rabbit across the creek and then (after about half of them left) we strolled up to the north woods and started looking for squirrel
we almost got to the end without seeing any when someone spotted one in a tree, we started moving around the tree to get a shot, when i spotted another one running in a nearby tree, and then all hell broke loose
a couple shots went off and there were suddenly squirrels EVERYWHERE
at least 7 of them running all around us and people shooting all over the place (mostly missing) and it was hard to see where they even were, and the worst part, i only had one shell left, and shot one immediately after my uncle kim got it (so it was his kill) so i was standing around looking dumb while there are frickin squirrels all over the place that i had a shot at a few of (and would have hit)
by the time i got more shells from my dad there was only one left, and by the time i got over to it, it had made it up into its nest, so that sucked
but we ended up with 2 rabbits and 3 squirrels total so that wasn't bad
then we went to my uncle kim's for dinner (after showers) and had a good time eating and lounging outside (because it was a ridiculously nice day)
later that night luke, leah, julia and i saw borat, which was funny, but not Great, and the very large naked man wrestling with the skinny naked man for 5 minutes really didn't do it for me as it turns out...
saturday i watched 'the fountain' with john
i liked it, but i think i'm going to have to see it again to really absorb it
it was a lot better than requiem for a dream (which i didn't like) but not Quite as good as pi (which i loved), so aronofsky is doing pretty well for my taste
