Oh hello.
I know I haven't been posting much lately... I haven't been much in the mood. Not sure why..
Maybe because I've been focused on actually DOING MY JOB for a change.. ha!
But I just saw this and really felt that I needed to share it with you:
http://www.boston.com/yourlife/gallery/nightlife/nightlife_gallery_4/
Don't get me wrong. I'm really happy with my life in Boston, I have great friends and a lovely manfriend and great job, but sometimes I feel that it's despite all the jackasses that live here.
I mean take a look at these pictures and know how so very frat-tastic and provencial much of Boston is.
Dude, I'M COMING TO YOU LIVE FROM BRAINTREE! YAHOOOOOO!
Wow. Don't know where Braintree is? Yeah, I don't really either.
Oh, and some of those girls in those pictures didn't even WEAR THEIR PEARLS OR BLOWDRY THEIR HAIR! SO WACKY AND SHOCKING!
Folks, college is over now. Time to stop with the sports and the beer and get a fucking life.
I'm not saying I *WANT* Boston to compete with New York or LA or San Francisco for a vibrant nightlife. I *like* that Boston is sort of the little brother of these other cities trying on their big brother assless leather pants and trying to make a go for it even though they are way too big and baggy in the front (you know, "where it counts").
I *like* that not everyone is vying to be the next discovered big thing and that clubs aren't filled with ACTUAL models and famous actors and actresses. I don't miss going to the gym during the day and realizing EVERYONE else there doesn't have a day job and has 0% body fat. I *like* that I can go to a "hotspot" early and instead of it being full of eurotrashteensluts, it's full of MIT professors and students. I like this. Why can't we celebrate this, oh Boston Globe, oh why?
So, not only are the pictures provencial and milquetoast (is that how you spell that?), so is the fact that our major metropolitan newspaper decided to run this type of item on their website.
I swear, Boston is more B and T (that's Bridge and Tunnel for you folks that have never lived in NYC) than Staten Island sometimes.
Ugh.

Twicksie, are you saying that you don't want to be caught without an umbrella in a "Tequila Rain"?
