They would, however, call streets by unofficial names. So instead of like, Route 9 they would tell you to take King Cole Farm Road or something.

Navigating in DC made me cry and cry once too, and Nick was the one driving. There are all these fucking turn-arounds like at the Arc de Triumph. They screw with your head I tell you!

"Tony Vallencourt: Boston to Nashua? You goin' up there to buy liquor pally?
Stanley Sperrow: Aya, no sales tax.
Tony Vallencourt: Alright, you just gotta shoot up 95, but watch your ass crossin' over the border. Those state troopers are outa control.
Stanley Sperrow: That's correct Tony! "
if you're going from boston to nashua you wouldn't take fucking 95, that follows the coast going northeast, you'd need to take 128 to ROUTE 3, take the lowell connector then cross the bridge at 110. fuckin' morons.
sorry for perpetuating a sterotype but i'm getting cranky about stuff like this in my old age. i was sitting in a bar this weekend yelling at someone who was doing a piss-poor job of parallel parking outside. it actually made me angry that they couldn't do it.
your favorite cranky old man,ktr

I am vastly happier at 31 than I was at 21. I was a reckless, shiftless, aimless person at 21. Now I feel a little bit calmer and a lot happier. Less like jumping around all the time, but more content. I like the 30s.

I'm feeling a lot more sick now, so Nick is going to pick me up early. Sadly though, he's coming all the way from Evanston. Owww!

Huh. I wouldn't. What happened when you were 27? Whenever I fantasize about going back to an earlier point in my life, I only imagine it happening with me knowing what I know now. Otherwise, I really don't feel a need to relive it.

Also, are you guys able to remember what it was like "at age 24" without calculating what year it was? I have no idea what I did when I was 24, but if you remind me that it was 2003, everything comes into focus.
