diary, hi!

diary, i forgot to tell you about this neat thing that happened yesterday. it's really just a tiny little anticdote but, i want to share. so listen!

yesterday, in the afternoon, malinda came over. we were going to head up to this record store in marin called village music, so she came over to pick me up. and when she got to the house, i told her to come inside because, as i put it, we had some 'business to take care of.'

and she laughed and said, 'is that business in your pants?'

but no, diary. no, that business was not in my pants. instead, that business was on the television. that business, was street fighter two. because dairy, malinda likes to talk a little smack about how she's the shit when it comes to video games.

and you know me, diary. you know that street fighter two is my game of choice. and you know that i couldn't take her beating me on the marvel versus capcom machine at the musee mechanique laying down, right?

right.

so she came inside and we got down to business with a copy of capcom versus snk two for the playstation. and let me tell you, diary. let me tell you. i whooped her bad. really. really, i wiped the floor with her cute little behind. honestly.

honestly. i beat up on her so good that, after a while, it started to get a little sad. it was pathetic diary, really. i broke her like a twig.

and today, i was talking with dug. out on the front steps of the house, while smoking cigarettes. and i brought it up with him, because he was there and he saw it all.

and i said to him, 'gosh, i really did just beat the crap out of her, huh?'

and he said, 'yeah. i would have to imagine that it was a little embarrassing for her.'

really, diary. the beating was that hardcore.

but, you know what? you know what's really neat, diary? the fact that i have a girlfriend that knows how to play street fighter two in the first place. right?

i mean, that's what's really neat, yeah?

yeah.
