Happy Friday Guy

I have returned (to the blog). I've neglected it for a long time. Sorry. I've done a crappy job of everything, including my Friday action this year. I've been out every Friday, but I feel like I'm just missing something. I don't know. Mabye because I'm so busy this year, my heart isn't in it as much? I don't think that's true. I still love it, and look forward to it every week, but maybe its just harder to fit it all in.

I've had a bunch more people pursuing videos, and photo stuff, and things that just take time. I like being able to help, but it does strain things sometimes.

I'm excited about Thanksgiving.

I'm thankful for:
Family
Friends
Seasons (even if it makes my "job" harder)
Candy
The end of the semester
Freedom (and generally the country I live in)
Holidays
Pets

That's what I did today. (This one's going to be brief. I have less free time on Friday afternoons than I did last year.)

I made a few extra stops around campus, and saw some faces I had never seen, and they likewise. I had one guy offer me a McDonald's fry in exchange for some candy, and I gladly made the trade. Normally I just give it away. Then later, I was offered another fry, but it was the waffle variety from Chik-fil-A. I guess all that to say that I slowed down for more than 3 seconds for a few people today.

I think my favorite was getting to play Hacky-Sack w/ some regulars outside of AJ. Today I almost pulled off a stall on my Candy (Tool) Belt. Maybe next time.

Oh, and there was a nice gal following me for a little bit taking pictures. Hopefully she'll send me copies, and I'll post them up here.

Over the summer I managed to forget how much I love doing this... its all coming back though. :) I ran out of all my candy today. Bummer. I'm going to have to buy some more. Good thing Halloween is just around the corner, and I can LOAD UP on all the goodies.

I'm not in a very big "writer" type of mood so you aren't going to get much out of me this week. I will say though that I met one guy today who was excited that it was Friday. He really could yell. That made me happy.

Oh... I forget to also say thanks Patrick Hogan for the great drawing. Don't you think Pat did a great job? ;)

Its getting chillier out... time to start thinking about long sleeves folks. I saw one too many people gripping their exposed arms like it was winter.... its only going to get worse.

Hey, maybe to keep warm you could order a sweatshirt instead.

Keep on keepin' on.
HAPPY FRIDAY!

To my faithful friends and recipients of my joy:

I have let you down today, and I hope that it won't happen again anytime in the near future. I should have warned you all this was going to happen. I hope you can forgive me. I had to make a decision for myself today though. Wednesday I began a long journey South, and by last night around Midnight, I was happy about the decision that I had made: I went to see the opening night of Foo Fighters and Weezer in Atlanta, Georgia. Let me just tell you that it was the most awesome concert I have ever went to. Today however, I am feeling bad that, as I type this from a terminal at the Library on UGA's campus, that people are probably wondering where I am today.

Rest assured, I will be back again next week, and maybe I will try to find a way to make it up to you. Maybe I'll give away some free T-shirt or something? I don't know. Thank you for understanding, and I'll be back in full effect next Friday.

If its any consolation, I have been sick all week, and I might not have been able to yell today anyway, but at least I could have helped foster some smiles. I guess it doesn't matter now.

Sincerely,
HFG

Well, its been far too long. The summer was boring without my weekly duties, and its nice to see the school did something with all that money we give them. The McKinley facelift looks great. It feels good to be back, and I expect we will have another glorious year together. I gotta go do stuff, but remember to email me, or chat it up with me. SN: happyfridayguy

Oh... and buy a T-shirt. :)

Thanks Cory! I'll see you all real soon! 

I'm so sorry. Its been so long. I'm sure you all understand. Its that time of year where it gets hard to do anything but somehow you manage to spend as much time as possible doing something out in the beautiful weather.

Only 3 more weeks left. Its been a whole year. I've had such a good year. I can't imagine what life without "Happy Friday"s would have been like. It doesn't seem like very much fun.

For all of you that are worried about what is going to happen next year... I guess we'll have to see what happens. I am probably going to take a hiatus over the summer and regroup for the fall. Maybe I'll get a new scooter that won't break so much. Maybe I'll get a different outfit. Like I said, we'll see what the future holds.

I hope that you all understand what is about to follow then. This whole Friday gig isn't too expensive, but it all adds up. Week after week the dollars slip away to buy new candy, and fix the Blue Streak. So here is what I'm going to do. After many suggestions, I am going to make some T-Shirts. I have 3 designs that I've made so far that are pretty simple, but I think will be fun to wear around campus, or on "casual Friday" whereever you end up working after graduating. Don't ever forget to keep your Friday's happy. :)

So here are the first 3 designs: (Below)

I'm not sure what a fair price is... give me some feedback and we'll go from there. Just shoot me an email, and I'll get you a shirt. These will make fantastic graduation gifts. I might be able to make hoodies, hats, or stickers too if there is any interest. Again, let me know. Send orders to happyfridayguy@gmail.com

If you have any suggestions for another idea, let me know. I already have some other submissions that I am going to try and get up here.
