Sometimes it's good to just act like a kid. Lucky for me and my roommate, we live a literal stones throw away from Ground Kontrol, Portlands finest Bar/Arcade combo (henceforth known as Barcade). Day 11 of Awesome was spent with my favorite Portland friends at GK:
Going to an arcade often suggests traces of immaturaty. Our immaturity was confirmed with a race to the elevator between me and Adam. I claimed victory in a final-second fumble-- adam totally ate shit.
Jon just got his butt whooped in NBA street by Steven. Doesnt really comprehend it because he thinks he is so 'good' at videogames
For those of you that havent been to GK with me, Toobin' is my favorite game. This 1988 Atari classic reminds me of the good ol' days on the Willamette river, but with more falling boulders and alligators.
And of course, I'm extra awesome at Tetris. I challenge you.This video is not for the faint of heart. If you are one of the 3 people who like my Elderberry songs, this is going to be a treat.

Ok ok, so I know I jokingly told a few of you that if my day lacked awesomeness, I would just make some animated gifs and call it a day.
Today is not that day.
Because, in fact, I actually did something awesome-- but the awesome just so happened to result in an awesome animated gif!
My mom gave me this funky old camera that supposedly takes '3d photos':
I found out via google that this camera, the Nishika n8000, takes 4 shots for every 2 frames of film and using magic you can make them awesomely 3d. I found out via trial and error that even more than being awesomely 3d, if you mesh the entire roll of film together you get a dope animated gif!! So here is my day, in Giflandia.
Click here to veiw awesomeated gif. it's big so give it time to load.
This animated gif is best viewed with the following awesome jam of the day:
