A few weeks ago I took a weekend trip to Boston with Ciara, Annie, Cat and Kayla. Ever the Australian, Kayla decided she would try to sneak in without paying(or try to book the bed when we arrived), but alas, non-Aussie "hostelles" have at least some security measures, and ACCESS WAS DENIED! However, when the staff realised she had just been kicked out by her boyfriend, their hearts melted and all was good with the world once more. The next day we walked the central part of the Freedom Trail like good little tourists, and I realised that
1) The Boston Tea Party may go a long way towards explaining why American Tea is so watery
2) Old gravestones all look like they have Jack Skellington drawn on the top of them.
We also hit up the JFK museum, which was as beautiful as ever, and took very attractive pictures of ourselves on the waterfront outside. Another ride on the "T" train thingie brought us to Harvard, which to be honest wasn't as impressive as I'd thought it would be. We did arrive at night though, and we didn't know what we were looking at anyway (case and point; we thought the dining hall was a church). That evening we went to see Paranormal Activity 2, a genuinely hilarious experience when you watch with three terrified friends. On the walk back we also saw Fenway Park, which looked decidedly boring. Baseball= blargh. Sunday was shopping time, all seven hours worth, and it was beautiful. Expensive, but beautiful. Words can't even express how much I love Boston, but they can come pretty close. I LOVE BOSTON!!!! WOOOOOOO!!!!

A couple of weeks ago I and a good forty other people went to be in the live audience at a taping of the Jerry Springer show. We were picked up in the "Jerry Bus" (a.k.a. a Peter Pan bus) and whisked away to glamorous Stamford CT, where the show is now filmed. I sat on the front row, but luckily wasn't in shot too often as Mr. Springer had decided he was going to make Ciara and Melissa famous (creeper....). Nonetheless, I for some reason thought it was a good idea to pull a weird face at the camera, so yay for my stupid mug now facing limitless reruns on the tv and youtube. It also appears I am incapable of clapping like a normal human being, but in the three hours or so of filming I think the practise did me good. I can't lie, every time I had to jump up and shout "Jerry, Jerry" I died a little inside, I've never been so uncomfortable betraying my own principles. But there was nowhere to hide, so I clapped along like the spineless worm I am. When I go back to stage my rebellion, I'll make sure I have something to hide behind.
There's more, but I figure if you've reached this point you're probably wishing I'd shut up right now, so I'll save that for another time.
Peace out xxxxx
