Home For the Summer
Well folks, Greg Walsh is back in Weymouth, MA.
It's finally starting to hit me that I can't just walk to all my RWU friends anymore. No longer am I able to call Ashley, Jenn, Jena, Erin, Andrew, Greg, Kevin, The Stonewallians, or anyone else and just say: "Hey, Lunch at 1, you in?" But worst of all, I can't wake up to Stephen Edward Rand anymore. I don't hear the sound of Zelda coming from the T.V. I don't hear him seducing me with his melodious guitar playing. And I don't have to announce when I am going to shave. These thoughts have been swarming around in my head for awhile so I gave into the trend and started a Web Journal. I figure this way, everyone will know what I am doing and what has been going on in my life. And of course it will make the lives of my stalkers a lot easier.
Anyways, like i said, I am back in East Weymouth, MA. The Home of Greg Walsh. Weymouth is a quite and boring town/city. (We are a town, yet we have a mayor.) And with me having no car, I am forced to stay inside a lot of the time, which has it's perks. Well i haven't really done much since being home. I spent some time with my best friend Nick Pistorino (funny story...stay tuned). I was able to see the lovely Ashley Perkins. And I am enjoying my time with my family.
Funny Story. It was a Thursday Night. Nick picks me up at my house and we head to Quincy to the Hotel de Pistorino's. After an amazing game of MVP Baseball 2005, we both realized we are very hungry. Bickford's it is. So we hop in his car to go to the 24 hour Bickford's Restaurant in Braintree. We come off the highway and bang a U-ey and head toward Bickford's. Just then sirens flip on....busted. We pull over just in front of Bickfords and await the cops. I stopped at the ATM before this and forgot to put my seatbelt back on. So I reach for the seatbelt to try and put it on and discover that it is stuck in the door. That's a $50.00 fine right there. Click It or Ticket everyone! The police officer finally comes over and gets the license and registration from Nick. Then he turns to me. "What were you reaching for when I pulled you over?" ...."Oh..my seatbelt officer. Yea i forgot to put it on. I'm sorry." Long story short, because i reached for something he thought I was hiding something. So Nick and I are standing on the sidewalk while one officer searches the car. His partner is standing with us and starts small talking. "College kids?" "Yup" Then the officer notices Nick's "Hello My Name Is...." sticker Nick had on his shirt as a joke. "Hello.....Scott Bacula? The Quantum Leap Guy!?" Nick:" Yes! No one ever knows who he is!" ........10 minutes later........ Cop: "Yea he was in other things too....good stuff."
Well this made our night, Nick got off with a written warning for going 40mph in a 20mph zone. And he didn't say anything about me not wearing a seatbelt. So all in all it was a very commical night and makes for a great story.
So that Saturday, Ashley came to my house for our 6 month anniversary. We got lunch, watched some movies, watched 2 Micheal Jackson History DVD's that someone bought for me! :) Then, the romantic side of Greg showed up. I cooked dinner for Ashley and we had a candlelight meal until we were both stuffed. Great meal if i do say so myself....steve. Anyways, we eventually went to sleep and then watched The Incredibles the next day, but sadly the Lovely Ms. Perkins had to depart. But it was sooooo nice to spend some time with her and we had a great weekend. On a side note: I can not believe it has been 6 months. They flew by!! But never have I ever felt this way about someone, and never has anyone made me feel so appreciated. Every moment i get to spend with her is amazing and I am truly lucky to be with her.
Well, other then that, my first week home has been dull but relaxing. The only other news I have is that Nick, his brother Chuck, and I have formed a band, "Chuck and The Wet Bandits". We will be playing on Sunday June 26th and our set list will include various Classic Rock songs. This concert is a Must See because it could be the last time we preform in concert. More information will be given once i know, but i would love to see everyone there.
Well that just about does it for this entry. I will try and post as often as possible, but I am pretty boring at times! Anyways, check back here often and feel free to drop me a line whenever you feel like it!
I'm Greg Walsh, and you keep rocking in the free world!
