The lesson I learned in the my ridiculous week is, its not what you know, its who you know. Very good advice.
This song by the way is pretty dumb but its funny just how ridiculous Lil Wayne is, I never really endorsed any of his songs until now. Oops. Well I lived semi-VIP-ish this weekend.
On Friday I left work early to head over to Fenway. I hate the tourists. I forgot how difficult tourists are because they walk slow on the sidewalk and T and order slow in restaurants and pretty much everywhere else. Anyway finally arrived at GameOn and started the evening with a Stella tallboy. I sent my last wishes to Manny, I secretly hoped that Bay would make a sweet premiere at the game. The Sister got tickets through her work so I was happy not having to shell out cash for the event. Fenway was spectacular as always. I think any sporting event is pretty fabulous when you know people who can get to tickets and even pay for them. Well the Red Sox finally beat the Oakland As after 12 innings, when Bay the Newcomer hit a triple and Drew brought him in for the scoring run. I heart the BoSox!
Well after the game I ended up getting a ride to Harvard with Potter, Corona and The Sister. I left with Corona and took the T home because The Sister said she was going to Waltham. I attempted to get a cab, which failed. I hate that. So I ended up walking home from the train. I was tired so long walks at midnight annoy me. I ended up listening to my iPod and venturing home. I was near the road, minding my own business when I see truck lights flash near me. I turn to see, just incase I could potentially get runover while on the sidewalk. The white pick-up has all its four windows down and one of the males yells and asks,"how much?"
Wow, did I just get solicited for sex? I am at first baffled since I am by no means 1)dressed like a hooker, 2)I am not wearing anything scandelous, just my RedSox Lowell jersey and a skirt, 3)WTF! I was literally just walking, I don't care if I was wearing a skirt, it is rude to "holla". I don't take it as a compliment. In my response, I yelled at them that I would call the cops on them if they didn't leave me alone and I can easily take down their license plate number. They stepped on it and I was dumbfounded. Seriously? This gives me one more reason I hate boys.
Saturday was enjoyable. I got ready for my night with The Boss, yes BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN! I got free tickets to his concert through my work. The best part was they were the Fidelity Club seats at Gillette Stadium, which go for 199 per ticket. I invited Potter since I knew she would enjoy The Boss. On the way down, I looked up why he was called The Boss. I forgot how much I loved his music. I had to post a few of my favorite songs and their videos. Enjoy!
I'm Goin' Down, the lyrics are amazing...I heart him!
Hungry Heart, this reminds me of my mum.
Sunday, I woke up a bit tired from getting in late. Convert...AMAZING! Well I ended up staying in bed a bit longer and eating my Cocoa Pebbles, I secretly am obsessed with children's cereals. Froot Loops were my favorite for a while, now its those chocolate rice crispies. I finally decided I should go into the museum. I got a hold of Drunk Girlfriend, she wanted to see Shakespeare in the Park in the Boston Commons. I attempted to pack things up before I left the house, but didn't even bother getting a rain coat. The museum was fabulous, I told my epic journey of the Jay Peak Marathon to my fellow volunteers. I got to work in the Arthropods Rule the World exhibit, which was pretty fun. I just hate talking about arachnids. After the museum, I left for the Commons. Drunk Girlfriend planned on the wine, I took care of the food. I went over to Whole Foods, grabbed some Chevre and cabbaita. I didn't know what else to get, I paced the aisles and settled for spicy tuna and avocado rolls, along with veggies and hummus.
I sped walked through Beacon Hill, it was a work out, the rain was drifting away, after 5 minutes of trying to find Drunk Girlfriend, I met her near the front of the stage. She knew the General Manager of the show, who then hooked us up with free VIP seats, literally 12 feet from the stage. I was excited since this was my first Shakespeare in the Park. Great show, apparently the guy from In Plain Sight was the lead role for As You Like It. I loved all the characters, they were pretty believable and amazing.
Another pondering thought. I think if a guy took me to all these events in one weekend, I would be on Cloud 9. It would be the athlete, the musician, the historian and poet all combined into one person. Yet, he doesn't exist. Instead I had all my fabulous friends to join me. Who could ask for better? Not I!
