Today

So I got out of school at 11, got home at 11:20, and then my friend and I headed off to the Prudential Center in search of a suit for her.

We got off at Copley, and I had misremembered the map so we headed off in the wrong direction and then turned around and went back.

Then we went through Copley Place and took the walkways to the Prudential. We went through a few stores, not really finding much in the price range we wanted. Then we ate Indian food and got chocolate and went to Loft and somehow ended up trying on a lot of clothes. One was one of those dresses that only looks good with a belt, which we didn't have, so it looked like a sack.

Her: I am a potato. Don't look at me, I'm a potato. In a sack. With cats on it.

Then we rushed through Barnes and Noble (this was the B&N of In Your Pants Nerdfighter Meetup infamy) and then rushed through Lord and Taylor, and then we passed through Teavana and got some delicious tea. We ended up boarding the T at 4:15 or so.

And then I noticed that someone from the Nerdfighter meetup was there.

Me: DFTBA?
Her: Yep.

And so we rode some more, and at Fenway my friend noticed that my girlfriend was just getting on the T. So we talked and laughed and stuff and then she got off at her stop. Oh, beautiful coincidences.

So, as days go, today was pretty awesome.

Shopping

Today my friend Talia and I went out to do some shopping. She decided that it was about time, and I wasn't against it.

So we met up, walked to the bus, and got off near the markets, Allenby, and Sheinkin (the last two are streets). From there we pretty much walked around, going in and out of shops as we pleased, and down to the markets. It was amazing but exhausting, even though I only bought a dress and a tank top and Talia only bought a tank top. We also stopped to eat, of course, but that's not the point.

Sometimes I like shopping outdoors much more than in a mall because it's open and not so shiny-white-stone-y. And a lot of stores here have no physical front window - they have something like a garage door that they pull down when the store closes. So it really is quite enjoyable.
