Best Day I've Had in a Long Time

It started at noon, which meant I got to sleep in. Very good start.
My roommate who is home for the summer came to visit me since I'm taking summer classes and he had the day off. This was a godsend, as I have been pretty damn lonely lately since I know pretty much no one in the city I live in now.
We went to some event out city held called, the "Taste of Grand Rapids". It was this huge food festival where many of the city's restaurants gave out their food in exchange for food tickets ($1 apiece). So I bought 15 of them, and prepared to eat. For that 15 dollars, I got ice cream from two places, a bratwurst, bbq ribs, pizza, dirty rice, and a turkey sandwich. I'm still stuffed from the food I ate. So I went home and played video games with a couple of my friends, before they went back home.
I was getting bored again at about 11 o'clock, so I decided to take a walk around the city with my Ipod for a soundtrack. Pretty much my walks exist solely for the hope that I will have human interaction with someone. Usually this doesn't happen, but amazingly it did tonight. I was walking around, and I saw a guy playing the sax and another playing the bongos to the sax music. So I sat down and listened to the music for a while before striking up a conversation with another kid listening to the music.
It turns out he was coming down from a mushroom trip, so he talked and shot the shit for a while. He told me how weird his night had been. While he was still tripping, he had seen some guy dressed in a santa suit walking down the sidewalk. He said it probably should have tripped him out, but he just thought it was funny. So we sat there awhile, and he told me how he had been living homeless for a few years, wandering the states around MI until he found a job here. Apparently, he had been to a Rainbow Gathering in the Upper Peninsula, and he told me all about that. He was a great guy, and when we departed we didn't swap info, b/c if we were meant to meet again it would happen on its own.
Overall, I'm a happy camper right now. I can't remember the last time I've been in this good of a mood. Having someone to talk to will do wonders for a person. I finally feel like I'm not alone in this city anymore.

Just waking up in the morning gotta thank God I don't know but today seems kinda odd No barking from the dog, no smog And momma cooked a breakfast with no hog I got my grub on, but didn't pig out Finally got a call from a girl wanna dig out Hooked it up for later as I hit the dough Thinking will i live, another twenty-fo' I gotta go cause I got me a drop top And if I hit the switch, I can make the ass drop Had to stop at a red light Looking in my mirror not a jacker in sight And everything is alright I got a beep from Kim and she can fuck all night Called up the homies and I'm askin y'all Which park, are y'all playin basketball? Get me on the court and I'm trouble Last week fucked around and got a triple double Freaking niggaz every way like M.J. I can't believe, today was a good day
Drove to the pad and hit the showers Didn't even get no static from the cowards Cause just yesterday them fools tried to blast me Saw the police and they rolled right past me No flexin, didn't even look in a niggaz direction as I ran the intersection Went to Short Dog's house, they was watchin YO! MTV Raps What's the haps on the craps Shake em up, shake em up, shake em up, shake em Roll em in a circle of niggaz and watch me break em With the seven, seven-eleven, seven-eleven Seven even back do' little Joe I picked up the cash flow Then we played bones, and I'm yellin domino Plus nobody I know got killed in South Central L.A. Today was a good day
Left my niggaz house paid Picked up a girl been tryin to fuck since the twelve grade It's ironic, I had the brew she had the chronic The Lakers beat the Supersonics I felt on the big fat fanny Pulled out the jammy, and killed the punanny And my dick runs deep, so deep, so deep put her ass to sleep Woke her up around one she didn't hesitate, to call Ice Cube the top gun Drove her to the pad and I'm coasting Took another sip of the potion hit the three-wheel motion I was glad everything had worked out Dropped her ass off, then I chirped out Today was like one of those fly dreams Didn't even see a berry flashing those high beams No helicopter looking for a murder Two in the morning got the fat burger Even saw the lights of the Goodyear Blimp And it read Ice Cube's a pimp Drunk as hell but no throwing up Half way home and my pager still blowing up Today I didn't even have to use my A.K. I got to say it was a good day.
Hey wait, wait a minute poo Stop the shit What the fuck am I thinking about?

Nice to hear about your good day, Redstorm. Mine was alright, I guess. I just worked all day and night. I am tired and about to take it to bed. Anyway, I hope your evening continues to bring you happiness.

A nice random encounter with some human interaction...that's good medicine for any soul, glad you had a good night Redstorm.

All I really know is that those few years saddled me with a faith in the redemptive potential of the imagination which, however flat, stale and unprofitable the world seems to me now, I cannot for the life of me shake. -Erik Davis

I was thinking about it, but didn't. Don't ask me why, I have no idea why I didn't.
