I laughed.
Jul. 3rd, 2008 09:53 pmOkay, there are three possibilites for what I'm hearing:
1. I am hearing the music from two different parties.
2. Whoever's running the music at whatever party this is has chosen to play Sandstorm and Soulja Boy back to back.
3. There exists a mashup of the two.
At work today, I discovered that Harvard has lent us a copy of one of the Twilight books. I did not die laughing, but it was close. We had a couple more of those incidents that make me wonder why people keep lending us books, too - this past week has not been good for our competence scores. On the bright sides, a couple of those books in limbo got returned?
I was over by MGH during rush hour today. Now, I admit that the intersection by Longfellow Bridge and Cambridge Street and Storrow Drive is a tad complex, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't take 20 staties to direct traffic, even accounting for the holiday weekend and the road closures. I don't think of that area as touristy, but either I was wrong or we are reaching critical tourist saturation, because there were a fair number of them wandering about. On one occasion, I had to model how Boston residents cross streets - ie, by stepping out into moving traffic. (That was a perfectly clear signal! The driver made eye contact and slowed up a bit! But you hesitated, and so he shrugged and kept going!) Staying too long in Boston and then going places where drivers don't stop is hazardous to my health, I suspect.
I have a book and ice cream sandwiches, so I'm going to go deal with those and possibly attempt to get my Thoughts onYaoi Gabe in some sort of order.
