Serious nasal problems
Except for cramped quarters and a man behind me who had some serious nasal problems (he sat by me, changed his mind, and then sat behind me - lucky me!) my trip was cool. Oh yeah, i would not advise taking the bus on a friday night or saturday evening. No empty seats friday night. Lincoln tunnel madness saturday.
But it was an adventure. It was spontaneous - well, sort of. It was fun. I got to see the james muppet and miss heidi as well as my long-lost buddy claire - she's a honey. Everyone was soooo sweet to me. I crashed at smith, which is really lovely, although i did remember why i was glad to have moved off-campus originally - vomit on the front porch and led zeppelin at 3am plus much screaming. In amherst the next day was extravaganja, which was weird, to say the least. Lots of white teenagers with bad dreads, lots of hemp and deadhead products, some families of assorted natures, and lots of squishy doggies. Also a band that covered, among other classics, mr. Wendell by arrested development. Plus a long lecture from a droning libertarian. All in all, Good Clean Fun for the Whole Family.
Saturday night was also an adventure. I am all about frigging adventures these days. However the joey ramone vigil at cbgb's is making me very sad.
The parentals are whooping it up in the bahamas for dad's 74th. They bought straw hats and danced in the town square; my mom even got her hair braided! It makes me very happy to know that they are finally living for themselves, and i can't wait to see the pictures. Send some major positive vibes for the mama quitting smoking after 50+ years and maybe i can convince to go ahead and take yoga after all.
In other news, my neighbors confronted me last night about whether or not they "bothered" me - there's some legal stuff pertaining to this i won't go into, but suffice it to say little meek me was just like, um, well i HEAR you… It wasn't so much that i was afraid of them as that i didn't want to hurt their feelings, which is, if you've ever heard them screaming at each other and throwing shit, ludicrous of me. Overall, a lesson to me to be more honest. Maybe.
Ow on a work front.
