his purple majesty

I changed the LJ layout. I ended up with a ton of purple and the picture of JC that is reminiscent of Prince.

I didn't even realize where my brain had gone until I started typing this. LOL

living in Mass. is always an adventure

I headed out of my apartment into Boston at fifteen to five or so. The storm was blowing the snow in every single direction imaginable (I swear, at one point on my walk down to the T, there was a full on funnel blowing around me!). I was bopping along to some really angry Tool, though, so that was okay. Nothing can make you appreciate a Nor'easter the way that Maynard whisper-screaming "learn to swim" to all Californians can. LOL

Got into the city with very little trouble, although the trains were all packed. Headed to Bukowski's, had a few lovely hefeweizen's and helped a boy explain to his clueless friend why "Spartacus" is the gayest movie ever. Fun times.

By the time I headed back to the train the beer and the random conversation with friendly strangers had conspired to put me in a lovely little zen space about the snow. Actually zoned out a bit looking at all the pretty sparkles on the walk.

I was sitting on the T somewhere on the way home when the wind really picked up. The snow was blowing around so much that I got covered in a fine layer of it even though I was sitting as far from the doors as possible. It was all good though, because I caught the eye of a woman sitting across from me as I was looking around in amazement and we had one of those great this-is-so-miserable-we-can-only-laugh giggle fits while the rest of the passengers looked at both of us like we were completely crazy.

Now, I'm slowly defrosting at home. I picked up some more beer on the way to my apartment, so I should be all set for tonight.
