because he is a very conscientious student , pudge has been deprived of many wonderful culver creek experiences , including but not limited to a. drinking wine with me in the woods , and b. getting up early on a saturday to eat breakfast at mcinedible and then driving through the greater birmingham area smoking cigarettes and talking about how pathetically boring the greater birmingham area is , and also c. going out late at night and lying in the dewy soccer field and reading a kurt vonnegut book by moonlight .
