arm wrestlin'

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2005.04.28

Much to my amazement, I got into an arm wrestling match this evening at a bar. With... a woman. I won, per se, but does a man arm-wrestling a woman ever actually win?

I was out with the gang from Jon's outfit, with whom I'd interviewed yesterday. I was told I'd be wrestling "for the job". Good show that I didn't actually lose.

...and when you try to get some, it surely can be hard. There's always trouble waiting, when you leave your own back yard.
