And I've Never Been to Boston in the Fall

Well, actually I have, last weekend. And it was great! I went to visit my friend from college, Miss Jen Gruz, and we had a fabulous time!!!



First I got up at 4:30 to drive out to Dulles and catch a 7am flight, and then the weekend just kept going and so much happened and so much of it was so random, I'm going to have to reduce it to bullet points.

• Ninja pack running down the street- led by hippie ninja with a beard







• Coneheads running over the bridge and along the river (you know, the cone shaped birthday hats, all different colors, and there had to be at least 50 of them)







• The Boston Regatta







• The lumber-jacks in the Boston Regatta







• The group of guys cheering on the one guy doing sit-ups







• Realization that we both look great in tiaras







• Mexicans making our sushi and talking about us in Spanish- sure wish I paid better attention in high school







• Saw a red high heeled shoe driving down the street, yes you did read that correctly







• Pumkin tower, maze, bowling, etc.







• Got our faces painted, Jen got a jack-o-lantern, mine was a 6 legged spider, otherwise known as an ant







• bought produce at Haymarket, if you go late enough in the day they give you free avocados and nectarines and you can buy a whole box of orange peppers for $3







• a seven year old kid will ask you if he can take a picture of you and your box of peppers







• you will then ask a man dressed as a revolutionary soldier in the T if you can take a picture with him, he will kindly oblige







• Lovely dinner of orange peppers and some hummus







• Stop at the Boston Temple to take pictures, not allowed to tell the missionaries that Jen is not actually Mormon







• Waited in line for an hour for a 3D haunted something, Jen let me hold her hand







• Haunted hay-ride, again Jen let me hold on to her







• Thai left overs at 1:30am- great idea







• Watching Balls of Fury- not such a great idea, just in case you were wondering, Will Ferrell is not in that movie







• Nachos and Mangos for breakfast, and finishing Balls of Fury







• Drive out to the countryside for the best corn maze ever







• Cross all 11 bridges in the maze and get out with a whole 15 minutes to spare







• Saw crazy dread-locks guy walking down the street strumming his lute







• Get super star street parking right in front of the theater







• See Rachel Getting Married and am glad my family is functional







• Tasty butternut squash soup for dinner and early to bed







• Another horribly early flight and then strait to work

Wow, no wonder I'm still tired.
