Was a warm Friday morning in Santa Monica, California. The ocean breeze whispered behind me as I walked up the steep hill that rests between my parked car and place of work.
A wave of lively energy began bubbling before our weekly 10:00 a.m. meeting. Side conversations grew louder and louder. Pretty soon, it sounded like a school cafeteria. The conversation I had the pleasure of taking part in was with my friend Arman. We were talking ball and bars with sick Guinness.
Suddenly, as I wrapped up my review of a very poor Guinness I recently consumed, I noticed a lightbulb flick on above Arman’s head.
“Oh yeah. Got a Move for you. Was at a BBQ the other day. Sun goes down and everyone started toasting marshmallows, making s’mores. Except for this one guy. Dude busted out a glazed donut and started giving it a light toast. Glaze was dripping. Looked unreal.
Arman said he talked to the guy about the Move and he said, “When they zig, I zag.”
I’ve never wanted to execute a Move more in my life.
Let’s paint a little picture. You and the boys snag an Airbnb for a bachelor party, golf trip, or just a good old-fashioned getaway. 5 bedrooms, pool, jacuzzi, fire pit, pretty good-sized yard.
Squad gets in around 5-6 for night one. Decide it’s an indoor, share some drinks, catch up on old times night. Couple people hit the pool, jacuzzi, but nothing crazy.
Next day, the festivities begin. You guys go out and play golf, hunt, fish, watch live music, Comic-Con, whatever the purpose of the trip is. Afterwards, you and a buddy head to the liquor store and pick up a couple extra beers. Before you head back, you mention to your buddy, “Hey man. Pull into that donut shop.” Come rolling out with a dozen. Back at the place, you tuck the donuts away from plain sight.
The night festivities begin. Maybe you hit some restaurant, a bar, maybe another bar, maybe one more. You guys get back. It’s 100% stogie and fire time. Squad gets the fire started. Everyone’s enjoying their time. Next thing you know, you sneak inside the house, snag the donuts and come rolling out.
“What’s bro doing with those donuts?”
You throw one on a roasting stick and start letting it rip.
Could Be The Move.
