Sarah's Wedding Weekend


Sarah is one of my oldest friends. We've known each other since we were 12 years old and campers at PAPA Camp. This past weekend was spent in Newbury at her wedding, which was elegant and ridiculously fun. I took the bus into Boston, spent the night then got on the commuter rail to Newburyport. I planned on taking the night train back into the city, but I grossly underestimated my penchant for the sauce, so I ended up passing out on a chair. Although the chair was pretty comfy, even though it was a chair.

I'm actually writing this blog from my seat on the bus as I make my way home. Whee! The future is now! Wireless internet on a bus is fun.

I'm also still wearing what I wore to the wedding last night, and I smell of Maker's Mark and pork.

I feel bad for whoever is sitting next to me.

(Update: No I don't! This guy talked on his cell phone the entire trip retelling the same boring story about how he barely made the bus and how lucky he was that he could take the empty seat next to me so I would be cramped up and grumpy well before we even crossed the border into New York. In fact, I feel glad that I provided an uncomfortable warm smelly experience for him on the bus.)

Also, I am an idiot who does not know how to work his computer since I blasted "Stand by Me" at full volume to everyone on the bus without realizing that there is a fake headphone outlet on my computer. Dammit. Soon I'll be home.

Soon.

How did you not notice that right away? Or were you saying that as in you "had it on for a second really loud but then realized the headphone jacks did not work and quickly shut it off". And you're just saying you played the whole song for "dramatic effect".

"You are gayer than AIDS." Fag.

Your parents don't read this blog do they?

No they don't. What actually happened was I was jamming out to the song when someone said very loudly to me "EXCUSE ME! DO YOU HAVE HEADPHONES?" And I was like "Uh, yeah I'm WEARING them."

And then I realized that I was an idiot.

Then the guy sitting next to me said, "That's really loud!"

As if I didn't notice and apologized.

Jerks.

Ahhh, well, after hearing the rest of the story, I side with you. What a bunch of assholes.
