Philly to Baltimore

So apparently I'm terrible at this updating game, because Danit has updated like 7 times, whereas I'm on my third. It is her computer though, so what can you do.

Philadelphia was a very lovely city, although I practically had to commit seppuku as we were driving away because I forgot to run up the Rocky steps. I have portable bluetooth speakers with me and everything, so I could have played "Gonna Fly Now" while I ran. I'm a failure and a disappointment.

Our local guy in Philly was Daniel, he knew his shit about the city. He was also 37 and had 5 kids. What a machine. Here he is, with me:



This was a nice little place in Philly called Love Park:



Thats all I really have for Philly, sorry there are no pictures with me and Ben Franklin or the Liberty Bell. I didn't really get down into that neck of the woods.

Our next stop was Boston, which of course was wonderful. There was my family, Taylor Brennan, Zeta goodness, and hotel sleepovers. I met the pledges, who were wonderful people. Some pictures from Boston:

Ryan 'n Brian!



Jay!



Paul!



Ilana!



Pretty much I just have pictures of friends. But they are great and attractive friends, so you get to look at them.


Baltimore. What can I say besides it is the most ghetto place I've ever been. I knew it was going to be a winner because of the sequence of events that went down once we arrived at the hotel:

1. Our rooms were booked under the name "Daneth Zovin". Luckily Danit managed to translate that from dumbass language to her own name.
2. Danit asked for a non-smoking room and was given one that smelled like a bowling alley.
3. I asked for a non-smoking room and was given one that smelled like a Phish concert.
4. I noticed a man sleeping in a van outside my window.
5. I asked for a different room and was given one with a non-functioning door.
6. I head to Subway to pick us up sandwiches. Subway is closed.
7. I go to McDonalds, and am informed that they are out of salads, except for sketchy Asian salad.
8. Taco Bell it is!
9. And later, some guy was mooing outside of Danit's window. What the hell.

While in Baltimore, we got kicked out of the one place in the entire city where people actually hang out, so the day was pretty much a bust, promotion wise. Luckily I have tomorrow off, so I can spend it in the car watching Clarissa Explains it All on the DVD player in a supermarket parking lot.

Maybe I'll have more Balitmore pictures later, but for now nothing. Sorry this was such a long one.

"Daneth Zovin" sounds a lot like McLovin. I see we keep it.
