Electric Josh

So a pile of girls just got on the train looking like they're heading to the clubs. They're acting way too girly, and are annoying me in the way that girls are probably annoyed by obnoxious boys heading out for a night of drinking and trying to pick up bar-type girls. Taking the train out of town and down into the suburbs suddenly doesn't seem like such a bad idea. #

The dude who just sat down in front of me just fell down because he's so wasted. Reeks of alcohol and will soon probably vomit really near me. Park Street can't get here fast enough. #

Public transportation and laptops are great. Spent the night hanging out with friends and watching three simultaneous sporting events, and now sitting in a train and playing with my favorite toy.

If only the batteries lasted longer than an hour or two I could actually do paid work in such a setting. Or if I had a nice solar cell. Or, hell, even a hand crank. Take the train to the beach or to the banks of the Charles, set up and go to work. Just need a bunch of wireless network hookups in public places. What a great field to be in. #
