rabid happiness *giggle* thats how i feel today. i feel good. i feel alive. i feel like i dont hate boston half as much as i claim to every other day. it snowed again.. just enough to see it sitting on the tree limbs. i pounced on ian all morning because i was awake and he wasnt..and how come all the cool things like the tv and the computer are in his room anyways? its his own fault. so neeeenerrr. i think i was so giddy because the fed-ex man came early and brough me things from this rad glass place things that im going to give to people for christmas. i swear. i answered the door wearing my quilt as a skirt..i love getting packages though. love love love. so fiiiianlly he wakes up and even though i harrassed him all morning i still convinced him to trek to the post office with me. so the post office is packed.. and theres a line out the door. because i guess everyone realized that christmas is really soon..and they better get on it. i give the postal people credit though.. i couldnt do it with a smile.. i dont do my own job with a smile that much. and the woman worker said happy holidays to everyone. and i think she meant it. that makes me happy too. so i picked up my package... which is a rad as hell lantern that you put a candle in.. and its glass.. but looks like parchment..and has chinese writing on it..and a buddah.. it was gonna be for lynette.. but i got her many other things.. so i can justify keeping the lantern for myself.. besiiides.. i had to test it out to make sure it worked right? and put a candle in it.. no one wants to get a used christmas present... looks like its a keeper. tee-hee. so we walk back and i spy a quasi-sanrio store. hello-kitty characters = irresistable. but i swear theres no real sanrio stores here in the east coast. this one had some cute stuff.. but not alot. so we cruise on..and ian convinces me to go to luch at the grecian restaraunt.. which hes raved about for years.. but the one other time i agreed to go we walked 2 miles there in the pouring rain and it was closed. but today.. today being good and all it was open.. and i had the biggest best cheeseburger known to man for $4.25. im still stuffed now like 6 hours later. their burgers are shaped like platters.. like stretched out egg shapes.. if that makes sense. ive been converted .. and mocked for my resistence to the goodness that is the grecian restaraunt. but the other thing that made today so surreal was we walked in and ian saw friends of his.. who i know through mostly drunken associations.. and then i saw kids from school there.. that i know, well just through sight. and it was like a weird sense of community.. like norm mustve had at cheers.. you know? like i was suddenly a part of boston.. not just some weird misplaced observer. so we eat.. ian gets later and later for work.. i go to the bank.. i come home and play around online being the rad geek that i am.. and here we are.. and its all good. its all smilingly good. i want to go to cvs and raid their christmas department.. and i will. :) *pounce* ********* on another note.. on my ramblings through diaryland.. i somehow came across this and of course couldnt disagree more. i respect her opinions.. and i almost felt bad for her for not being able to see or feel magic.. *shrug* i personally dont have a "ceremonial broom" but i do believe in alot of things.. ive seen too much crazy shit happen not to. and on the same thought train.. i think thryn said it best at the end of her entry.. just because there are silly kids out there chanting to be a smaller dress size, doesnt mean the whole concept is silly. go read that. she said it best. adios. farewell. and *bite* someone... just cause you feel a little rabid. rawwwwr. ooh ohh! a later addition.. and shameless promotion.. the ups man has added to my deeelight with today.. he brought me beeeautiful glass pieces i ordered here. these people are rad.. and even called me when my credit card wouldnt go through.. my smart self put the wrong experation date in.. i like a place thats not afraid to call me .. and sounds like 10 people total work there when i call back. rad as hell i tell you. go . buy. smoke. dream. |
