woah woah,

When the crap did all of this happen? up and leaving without telling anyone... you should be ashamed.

P.S.: Its alright... because I'm leaving here at the end of April.

It's been in the cards since day 1. I have to return to get that expenisve piece of paper from my school and all. But its cool, there will be a lot of biking, and my course load will consist of:
beers of the world, current films, films from the hollywood studio era, some still undetermined communications class, and typography.

As for after I graduate, I am looking at Portland, OR, but if there are no jobs, I will be returning to Boston.

Where the eff are you going luke? going to NYC again?

What is the 6 degrees Race stickyfoot is speaking of? It's news to me. March 10? I'm inconsolable about having to miss the Dude Abides and the Team Gigantic race.

awesome. so, apparently in addition to it being mardi gras today, it's also national pancake day. so someone has proposed riding to ihop in brighton for free pancakes?! or to chinatown or something...we'll see!

02-20-07, 03:24 PM
pancakes and bikes? okay i'm there.

also fyi, the ihop in harvard square is open now, too (on jfk/eliot st). but it's smaller & bound to be more crowded than the one in brighton, i think..

1. I've lived in the Northeast all my life and I feel like I need to see more (lame but true), though I do love it here.

2. I need to be somewhere where I can do what I actually want to do: write/produce/perform music with/for myself and other artists/bands... do post production audio/video and write/perform/film sketch comedy.

Alright.. so I've only got those two reasons. And if you try and argue about music and film in Boston look to #1. Sorry if this doesn't make any sense... I like to give myself options.

Thank you ladies, even though I forgot a few of your names (I am so incredibly terrible with names), for a good night out. Let's make it happen again!

Also please pity Rob for the horrible chili service. :(
