(That moment where you feel more at home somewhere you’ve spent a total of three weeks in vs. somewhere you’ve spent all 23+ years of your life in. Why can’t I just transport all the people I love to the place I love?)

AKA just got back from spending a week and a half in New England. I am struggling to form the words necessary to convey how amazing this last visit was, but here are some highlights:

The New Bedford Whaling Museum, finally meeting @currer-ellis-acton‘s mumsie (despite being wicked nervous tbh), lobster rolls, our new BFF Wilfred the taxidermy seal, and hate watching Fuller House. (We couldn’t make it past one episode, but at least we suffered together.)

Snacks the marshmallow cat, even though she was an asshole and stole my water.

Long conversations about why most people are horrible.

Revisiting Cambridge, spending way too much time in Newbury Comics, CUPCAKES, new books, discovering the delicious chicken salad that lives at Al’s (even if our hands froze as we ate it on the steps in front of the Harvard chapel), and buying friendship teddy bears. They’re named Fitz and Markie Bear because we’re awesome, mature 20somethings.

Finally going to the JFK Library! Jackie’s handwritten notes are hilarious, and were definitely my favorite part. It was also amazing to watch all the footage from JFK’s debates and addresses, and the harbor views were great.

Snarking Picasso at the MFA (sorry Picasso), being starstruck by Van Gogh, and discovering how wonderful John Singer Sargent is. (I am generally not an art person, okay.) Also, establishing head canon about the Lord Byron bust. Don’t ask.

All of our “shady crews” at the aquarium. The creepy sea dragons. The frogfish. The poisonous frogs. The sea lions that really, really did not like each other.

Gorgeous, relaxing jellyfish and adorable turtles.

Eating delicious cupcakes from Georgetown Cupcake on a bench near George Washington’s statue in the Public Garden, as a belated birthday celebration for the pride of Mt. Vernon.

Cannolis and champagne cookies from Mike’s, and overpriced (but amazing) chocolate covered strawberries from Modern.

The hilarity that is Primark--like, I don’t even know how to describe our experience there because I feel like everyone will think I’m making it up. The groups of people in business suits. (”And over here, for example, we have $16 jackets! Any more questions on this floor?”) However, despite feeling like we were in a fish bowl, we got some excellent deals. I got a $16 faux leather jacket, a $5 sweatshirt, and $3 unicorn earbuds.

Finally meeting @thenoblestar!!!! (the only reason you’re this far down is because I was attempting to go in order.) Who is sweet and amazing (even if her lack of a Ravenclaw scarf was disappointing) and didn’t hate us for being ~40 minutes late. <3 We rambled about the Marauders in person, ranted about Snape apologists, and had a run-in with a guy who was convinced she had a pet dog in her purse, snapped at me about this, then was “oh sorry, it’s just that someone brought a live squirrel in the other day, and it was dancing on the counters.” Right.

Revisiting the Isabella Stewart Gardner and seeing the new plants in the courtyard, making fun of Whistler (sorry, but his Nocturnes look like chalkboards in gold frames), and coveting everything in the gift shop from macaroon jewelry cases to an illustrated biography of Virginia Woolf.

The Harvard Museum of Natural History! My favorite part was the insect room, and @currer-ellis-acton‘s was the rocks. I thought all the taxidermy would be my favorite, but it just made me sad.

Giggling about eel sauce and avocado salad at midnight, and then texting my sister about eel sauce. Again, we are awesome.

$7 dinners at TGIF!

Many, many inside jokes about Tabitha from Neko Atsume, and dying every time she appeared in one of our yards.

Spending Wednesday (which was gorgeous) on the swings at the Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Greenway: rambling, watching the dudebros play Frisbee, and flipping through Washington’s Rules of Civility. (We also did the Freedom Trail that day--or part of it, because we were dormouses and ended up splitting it into two days.)

Developing the term ‘dormouse.’

Dying at ridiculous Take That videos--in particular, one that involved all of them dressed as clowns and riding unicycles. (Or, in Gary’s case, a tricycle.)

Several iced cookie dough coffees from Dunkin.

Champagne cobblers from the Omni Parker, then possibly accidentally summoning a Lyft to a Margaritaville in CT--which was promptly canceled. But the fact is that someone actually responded to that insane request. (Sorry, Charlotte, but this will forever kill me. I am dying right now.)

Just generally being ridiculous and feeling like nothing is off limits.

ETA: Our belated Galentine’s Day celebration at Max Brenner’s, and delicious crepes. HOW DID I LEAVE THIS OUT.

Bonus worst moment: getting yelled at by a random, grumpy lady at the Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Greenway because we were not utilizing the swings properly! We stopped swinging for all of (maybe) two minutes and she came over to snap, “this is a swing! if you’re not going to swing, there’s a bench right there!” She said this over and over, as we pointedly ignored her, because clearly something crawled up her ass and died.

Anyway, that was all over the place because it’s impossible to put everything into words (and because I am still tired), but it was a great visit (probably one of our best), and I am very sad to once again be several states away. But thanks to @currer-ellis-acton for having me, and for generally being there through the shitstorm that has been my life the past ~2 years. <3 SEE YOU SOON, HOPEFULLY.

literally everything you wrote made me so happy. thank you for making my day <3

Awesome! :D

Thanks for making my day! I love talking about my favorite character! Feel free to message me anytime (and it can be about anything, I like talking to my followers)

[autistichansolo]

(sorry i got too excited and sent the other message early) but THANK YOU for saying everything that I felt when watching OUaT. I loved Neal/Emma and when they killed Neal off I stopped watching. I was just so angry you know?? If anybody deserved a happily ever after it was Neal. :( and they just killed him. The moment Hook was introduced I knew something bad was going to happen.

(totally ok; I love get messages; I get really excited when I get them)

And I totally get you about OUAt. I don’t really watch it any more after Neal’s death (it was so freaking sad and I cried so much afterwards and I’m still not over it). Though I kinda of keep up with it but only because the rest of my family watch it. But I’m just so done with that show. All my favorite characters are treated badly (Neal, Snow, Henry). And the characters I hate so much are getting happy endings despite not deserving them at all (Crybaby Regina and creep as hell Hook). 

All I ever wanted for Neal was to get a happy ending.  He’s been through so much (being abandoned by his mother, he’s dad becoming the dark one and power crazy, he’s dad abandoning him, losing the Darlings because of magic, being abandoned by Hook because he had the nerve to be anger at him about his mother leaving with him *scarasm*, being alone in Neverland hiding from Peter Pan and the Lost Boys and Hook and his men, scared and lonely, coming to a world he knows nothing about after escaping Neverland, meeting Emma someone who understands what it’s like to be abandon and alone with nobody in the world, falling in love with Emma only to lose her because of magic, finding Tamara and loving planing to marry her only to find out that she was just using him, being shot by her and falling through a portal, working his ass off to get back to Emma and Herny once finding out they were in Neverland, confornting his father who he has ever right to be upset with, seeing his father died, losing both Emma and Henry again, only to die trying to get back to them) He just deserves to be happy. To be a father for Henry something he was willing to step in and do right away after meeting Henry and finding out he’s his son. To choose if he wants to reconcile with his father. To get to know Belle. To make new friends. To be with Emma or to just be her friend whichever one Emma wanted (because that is what he would do, he respects Emma and just wants her happy). HE JUST DESERVES ALL THE HAPPINESS IN THE WORLD BUT NO HE DOESN’T EVEN GET THAT! HE ONLY GETS TO SUFFER AND DIE! THAT’S IT! AND IT REALLY UPSETS ME AND JUST PUSHED ME AWAY FROM THE SHOW! BECAUSE HOW CAN A SHOW ABOUT HOPE AND HAPPINESS AND SECOND CHANCES NOT GIVE ANY OF THESE THINGS TO THIS BOY THIS MAN WHO HAS BEEN THOUGH SO MUCH SUFFERED MORE THAN ANYONE REALLY NOT GET A HAPPY ENDING!

I didn’t think something bad was going to happen at the very indroduction to Hook; it was really in season 3 that I started thinking that. With making him wanting to be with Emma his remption arc (like really). And the show completely ingoring every bad thing he did in season 2. And when they started forcing him into every scene despite him being the creepness guy on the show (at least for me, he really makes me uncomfortable and specially the way he wanted about winning Emma like she was some prize). That is when things started getting bad for me and Neal’s death was really the final straw for me. I just can’t watch it any more (and I’m glad I don’t really especially because now they are completely destorying Robin Hood’s character just so he can be with Regina so she can get a happy ending)

I LOVE YOU <3333 JAMES/SIRIUS AND RON/HARRY BROTP OR OTP WHATEVS. I JUST LOVE THEM. THEIR FRIENDSHIPS MAKE ME CRY SOMETIMES. sorry i just found your blog and everything you say is good. you are a lovely cookie

LOVE YOU TOO <3

James and Sirius are awesome! Their friendship is the most tragic one. They mean so much to each other and loved each so much. Only for James to die leaving Sirius alone and completely broken. HE NEVER GOT OVER JAMES DEAD! IT HURT HIM MORE THAN ANYTHING! He was just so sad afterwards. Their friendship makes me sad all the time even when it’s happy because YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS! And they would be so good together. James loved Sirius the most in the world; nobody loved Sirius liked James. And Sirius was so in love with James. James was the most important person in the world to him. James was everything to him. WHY DOES THEIR FRIENDSHIP HAVE TO BE SO SAD? AND SHIPPING THEM IS SO FREAKING SAD TOO? I JUST LOVE THEM SO MUCH

And Ron and Harry! They are the best friends ever. Ron is the person Harry would miss most in the world (ron was the person Harry had to save in GOF for the second task). Ron gave Harry the family Harry always wanted. Harry gave Ron a friend; someone who was willing to stand by his side even through he might have not been the most popular kid to choose; Harry Potter was his best friend. And they goof off with each other and would do anything for each other. And Harry wouldn’t be Harry without Ron. Ron was his first real friend. And yeah Ron had some issues but he always overcame them in the end; he always came back. Ron would do anything for Harry like Harry would do for him. THEIR FRIENDSHIP IS SO AWSOME! and Harry would rather hang out with just Ron than with just Hermione (which is actually very canon; in GOF, he said he miss Ron and that being Hermione’s best friend was boring). Ron is just so important to Harry and Ron is an amazing friend who is really underappericed in the fandom. (Ron is one of my favorite characters and I just relate a lot to him).

(don’t be sorry; I love getting messages. and I really glad you like my blog :D)
