I started keeping an activity log again, and redid my homepage. It looks more or less exactly like every other activity log/homepage on earth. Big deal.

It's here.

I got a cell phone today. I'm slowly turning into quite the yuppie. Bummer.

I returned to Boston with a couple of my friends, but they weren't allowed to move into their place until Sunday. "No problem!" I say.

I live on a third floor walkup.

And these friends are 2 girls.

And I also have all of my stuff from Ohio.

fuck. I mean, I may be a computer geek, but I don't have a stereotypical aversion to physical labor. I don't mind carrying stuff up and down stairs when I need to. But this is a -lot- of stuff.

We managed to pull it off in a little over an hour, the toughest things being a few arm/rocking chairs of mine and a few of their boxes that they packed a ton of stuff in, like a box with a computer, monitor, and stereo (!).

Yesterday, I helped them move it all into the place they are staying for the summer. This means taking all of their stuff back down 2 very narrow and steep flights of stairs and transporting it to their place.

They live on the third floor.

Did I mention I also got lost driving? MapQuest can blow me.

I also got a parking ticket. (It's my first one! I will scan it in when I get the chance; I want to frame it, but alas, I have to pay it.)

But, I have my apartment to myself again, which is both good and bad. Although they both still have keys, which can probably only be bad. Alas.

Anyway, enough about me. Back to life.

I am back in Beantown.

If I didn't live here and like it so much, I would want this place wiped off the face of the map. The driving in this town is atrocious at best.

Furthermore, if you have a 14' truck with a 11 foot clearance, you can make it under a bridge with a 10 foot clearance. But just barely. Go Boston.

Happy Cinco de Mayo everyone.

I am back in Ohio right now, taking care of moving the rest of my junk to Boston and dealing with some family stuff. It's nice to be able to relax at least somewhat and see some people I haven't seen in several months. Yipee.

In other news, today is my birthday. I am 20. Yay.

Heard anonymously on a certain IRC channel:

"I mean, come on, it's the year 2000 and we still have hangups over blasting one's own shaft through a gaping ocular orifice?"

*cough*
