Memorial Day Plan:
– show up to Red Bud Isle
– hit the rope swing like it owes you money, throw a backflip, and impress the attractive older women watching from a paddleboard
– two chill gay guys who are both teachers cheer for you like it’s the Olympics, then one of them makes an odd dolphin noise mid-air (the huzz love it tho)
– feel a moment of rare peace floating in the water, like maybe life’s not that bad after all
– head back to your parents’ house for dinner and despite having wildly different political opinions — they don’t bring it up and your friends feel genuinely welcome (your dad even refills someone’s iced tea unprompted)
– badminton starts strong but ends fast because the wind picks up, so you pivot to washer toss and enter a flow state winning game after game like prime Kyrie Irving
– set up the portable pickleball net in the street — a friendly Indian family in a black SUV slows down, takes one look, smiles, and takes a casual U-turn so the game can go on uninterrupted (you feel like the mayor of the block)
– the sun sets and it’s that perfect warm-orange hour where everything feels like the music video for “Golden” by Harry Styles
– run Fortnite duos with your little sister and a couple friends (it’s kill-based games and you’re locked in)
– she clutches the final round with 6 HP and you both get hype like Texas Football won a national championship
– eat Ben & Jerry’s half baked ice cream straight from the container with the fridge open
– go to bed with sore shoulders and the quiet satisfaction of knowing you’re ex probably didn’t have half this much fun for Memorial Day
