oh man, i need to be going to bed.

i woke up around noon today, and was a couple hours later dragged out of my room and away from my cds and computer games to go see some fireworks or something.

went to eagle's deli with katie mike adam oly and lori, i ate too expensive food and then we went into boston and walked around for a long time. randomly, in the common, we ran into lori's sisters and friends, and hung out with them, and walked with them, and i bought a little gay spongey thing for the shower, and then we ate at joe's, in a part of boston i've never seen or even imagined.

then, the college kids left and we walked for another billion years. eventually landing at the charles right on the water right across from the barge that they shoot the fireworks from. in the pre-show, we were entertained by the likes of Debbie Reynolds, who apparently was the chick in singing in the rain, and we also got cyndi lauper (only recognizable song she sang was true colors), and also arlo guthrie, of alice's restaurant fame (another hit we were deprived). Then the pops played the 1812, and in the finale the sky exploded. then we got the half hour fireworks show, and it was fucking cool as hell. i guess i really haven't seen fireworks for 10+ years, and wow, it was neat. even better was the idiot woman standing in front of us, listening to headphones, doing these outrageously silly dances, which at times drew more attention than the stuff in the sky.

a long trip back home, arriving close to midnight, making this day like 10 hours. an unecessary 10 hours. i mean, we didn't get to the fireworks place till 8:30 or so, but i guess the day wasn't a total waste. i'd go so far as to say i enjoyed it. what i did not enjoy was the forty bucks i spent, but what're you going to do.

then, back at bc, we watched lori read the real world message boards. funny shit. unfortunately, lori wouldn't respond, nor would she give me permission to respond with her name. but we did get her to sign some hideous web page somebody put up. words can't describe it, so check it out here. i will say that the midi on it is one of the coolest things i've ever heard. for half an hour we listened to it without a single complaint.

ugh, got to go to bed. achey as hell. i really hope my headphones come tomorrow, but to quote dean of dean's furniture: i doubt it.
