Counting down the decade- 2001

2001 was a pretty good year. I hit the high school, my voice was still high, and I started flirting with girls more aggressively. Here's what else happened, categorized:

2001 socially:
-I joined BBYO, and was put in AZA 6. The day I joined 6 was a day I'll never forget--I was given my first porn, which is still hidden today in my sports card closet (what, you thought I really only used that for hockey cards?) and I think I was taken to Hooters, where I learned about "Pizza Porn and Poker" nights.  Those guys really corrupted me.
-Josh Knafo was highly involved in mine and Jules' lives. He taught Jules how to shoplift from the grocery store, and taught me how to shave my mustache and drink Mikes Hard Lemonade. No one found the empty bottles for 3 years, and when my mom did find them in 11th grade, she was shocked and appalled. Good thing she didn't know I had actually drank them longgggg before, I woulda been sent to rehab knowing her.


2001 in love:
-Summer at White Pine was uneventful love-wise other than the experience making out with Drew. I was so excited, I woke up the next morning to tell Adam R. Levine. His response--"No you didn't, she made out with Greenberg last night." So, Drew made out with me, and it was so bad that she had to follow it with Brian. Fuck. Oh, and supposedly she made out with Rotty earlier in the night. What a B.
- Took Melyssa Feiler on a date to Elitches (6 Flags for non Denverites). We got on the Ferris Wheel, and I knew we were going to kiss, so I very very subtly took off the rubber bands in my braces in preparation. Shane was there somewhere, so when we started kissing we had to stop as the wheel hit the bottom of its cycle. It was amazing. I was a stud.

2001 in Sports: Invesco Field Opens for the Broncos, Barry Bonds does some roids and jacks 73 HR's, AVS WIN THE SNALEY CUP AND I'M AT GAME SEVEN WHEN THEY WIN IT. That made my year. Watching Ray Bourque hoist it for the first time is just plain boner-worthy. Even better than the Ferris Wheel kiss, no joke.
