Boston!

Some of you may know and some may not, that I went to Boston on the 13th of Jan. And you all know me too well, when I say I want to live there.
I get back and people ask, "How was your trip? You wanna live there now, don't you?" I know, I always say that. On tour I said it after leaving Seattle, and after leaving Sacramento, and Berkeley. This is not always just because I love the city or the stuff that happened there.... but because of the people. I'm sad to say that I don't feel at home here in LA.
When I got to Boston, I couldn't stop laughing.
Before I left I had a couple of downer moments with some friends. Someone upset me with accusations. And on top of that, I was coming to Boston to visit my father's grave for the very first time. Talk about difficult.
So now on to the topic at hand. Boston. It was starting to snow when I got there. They were salting the roads to prepare for the storm that would come while we slept. When we woke up and the storm was over and everything was white and pristine.



Liz, Erin, and I went into town that Monday. It was cold, but not as cold as it was the last few days before I left. We started off going to H&M as if I don't have those here, but hey, each store is different. Then we went to TJMax so Erin could yell at them. Jerry met up with us there. I saw the cemetery where Sam Adam's is buried. And a little white dog prancing
through the snow,
the ice rink, and then we went to Newbury. I bought a Darkbuster CD, and Neverending Story.

We went home and a few friends came over and I didn't get to sleep til about 4am.
The next day Liz, Jerry and I went for pizza at TJ Scallywaggle's. A VEGAN pizza and sub restaurant! We had a barballow (Buffalo, BBQ) chicken pizza and a Chikhin Parmesan Sub. Jerry and I got wicked acidita (pronounced ah-ji-da, Italian for heartburn or upset stomach). I'm pretty sure it was because of the Tabasco.
Liz had class, so Jerry and I went to wholefoods to buy the ingredients for my famous chocolate chip cookies... they're like crack. I got the recipe from VegCooking.com

Then Jerry left for work and Liz, Erin, and I went to a bar. I met their friend Dave and Steve's girlfriend.... I can't remember her name 'cause I'm a jerk. I think it started with a "J". When we got home, Liz and I stayed up fairly late gossiping about stuff, that wouldn't YOU like to know. Ha...



Wednesday we made the adventure to the cemetery. Way out on Commonwealth.

My dad didn't have a headstone, so we brought him a pair of boots instead of flowers. My dad was sort of a big deal. haha...
How do you pose in front of a grave?




After that we walked to 20 Pratt St. The house where my dad died.... It's a college area. We knocked on the door to tell them my dad died in one of their rooms, you know, to fuck with college kids and ask if they'd seen any ghosts lately. haha...


Then we headed to TJ Scallywaggle's for more vegan pizza. I got a meatball sub

and a Maggie's Spinacoli pizza with Sauhsage to go so I'd have food the next day.

Yumm... Erin had Chiken Nuggets and garlic bread.





That night we, well, I baked cookies and we watched a movie, Georgia Rule... hahaha... so bad.




Thursday Liz and I met up with Erin after her class and we went shopping at Victoria's Secret and some other store. Erin and I bought matching Betsey Johnson pajamas for $17. Originally priced $70!

Oh and Liz took me to see Sea Lions and I told them that I'd come back and liberate them later. I don't know if you guys are aware of this, but animals sorta dig me. This Sea Lion was all about me.... he hung out at the glass for a few minutes checking us out.


And what did I say? Animals loooooove me.... This is Buttons... he's cute.

After that Liz and I went to her Film class and I pretended I was transferring there next semester. Ha...

After class we went to see Andrea Gillis perform.
The bar was in an old Hospital. When we left it was snowing.... and we had our fingers crossed that my flight would be delayed and I'd have to stay in Boston.





But instead of getting snowed in, my plane took off and I was off to Vegas.... But first I had to get to Albuquerque and get delayed there. Accept free vouchers to fly again and a hotel for the night. I really didn't want to leave Boston, so instead I was pissed that I was going to Vegas instead.
