Girls night out (Beantown Edition)

I still haven't figured out why my visits to Boston are sooooo much better than when I was actually living there. This past weekend was no exception. Not knowing if I would be able to make it back for Evil Twin #1's birthday next weekend (work is insane lately), I thought that I should come up this past weekend just to play it safe.

After an uneventful Amtrak ride from Penn Station to Back Bay (this ride felt incredibly long after being spoiled by Japanese trains), I met up with Evil Twin #1 and her friend at a bar that was near Back Bay Station (many thanks to Evil Twin #1 for picking a place that was less than a block away!). I was slightly disoriented as I had just woken up from a nap on the train (moving vehicles make me very sleepy) and was a bit overwhelmed by all the lights and noise in the bar. I managed to find Evil Twin #1 and her friend who were surrounded by a group men. But not just any men... we're talking high quality Massholes hee-ah.

Ahhh. The Masshole. Now that I am back in NY, the Masshole is far more amusing to me than when I had to deal with them on a daily basis. There were three of us and three of them. I like to think of them as (i) the Dancer, (ii) the Groper, and (iii) Pee-tah (or Pete, as the Dancer and the Groper referred to him). I don't want to bore you with details, and I'm sure that Evil Twin #1 will want to chime in on this as well, so I'll just give you the highlights.

Let me just state, I am not currently on the prowl--I am lucky enough to have found someone that doesn't seem to mind my messiness and addiction to television and shares my love of puns and fine dining. But, it is so much fun to just hang with the girls and to see the sorts of things that guys will do/say in order to impress us (meaning ladies in general). Here are the best lines of the night:

1. [after discussing the intricacies of being a real estate developer and the pros and cons of being a landlord] "[Evil Twin #2], you've got a really good head on your shoulders; you're going to do well in life."
   
   
2. [before I knew what a dancing machine the Dancer was] "Women who wear glasses are smaaht and sexy."
   
   
3. [after the Groper dipped me on the dance floor and i screamed in fear of being dropped on my head] "Don't worry, I won't drop you. You're as light as a feh-thah."

Yes, the Massholes have a way with words. They sure know how to woo the ladies...
