People in Boston

[eredien]

People in Boston, I would really like to watch some kind of media with you, at your home or somewhere where I do not have to pay for a movie. I need some low-key hanging out with friends, because what I have been doing for the past several evenings is either high-drama angsting, or silently typing into a screen more or less alone in a really quiet apartment, which left me drained and with no energy during the day to seek out company. It would be really good and nice if you could contact me and plan a thing, and all I had to do was show up and sit somewhere, because I do not want to be the one making plans or badgering other people to make plans.

Some things that might be good:
- movies
- plays
- hanging out and listening to music without much talking

Some things that might be bad
- I am too achy to cook (I am having trouble holding things for a long period of time, which happens when I am stressed)
- I am too depressed to sit around trying to make polite small talk over dinner, because when people ask me how I am or what I am going to do next I don't know, and have no neutral thing like a job to talk about instead.
- Going out to eat is also kind of expensive and awkward for the same small-talk reason, plus it makes the other diners look at me funny when I start crying, plus all the restaurants I want to go to have sad things associated with them now.

I'm definitely interested in meeting up, but it might not be easy until two weeks from now. I have a guest for a few days and then I'm traveling for work.

What kinds of videogames do you like? Hexic is sort of a puzzle game like Tetris, but has no time pressure. Portal is a puzzle game plus awesome, creepy yet funny narration. I also like first-person shooters, especially if they have a good co-op mode.

Are you interested at all in Step Up 3D (but maybe watched in 2D) or Scott Pilgrim? I'd be happy to treat you, and I'll probably watching one or both of those in the near future with my visitor.

How is Tuesday for you? I have roommates who may or may not be around, one of whom I have not actually met yet, and no air conditioning. However, I have a nice pretty tv now and we can watch a movie, and maybe eat something while movie watching. I have no food and am not there, so I cannot make promises as to food. Most of my movies are in the romantic comedy bvein, but maybe something like Resident Evil?

I'm free tonight, Friday evening, Saturday, Sunday evening, and most of the evenings in the next week. I also have some movies on my computer. and can probably get a copy of most anything.

Also, there's a restaurant that opened since you left (no bad memories), is vegan (and tasty), and I can cover both of us (cheap). It seems to be doing good enough business that it will still be open when you're more comfortable going out, but I thought I'd mention it as something for both of us to keep in mind.

I would love to hang out and watch movies, if you're willing to come out to Waltham. I can't remember whether you like Star Trek particularly? We're working through Next Gen via Netflix, and also have a wide variety of actual movies. I'm free on Sunday, and can make tasty food from our CSA veggies :-) I'm also free pretty much any evening next week. Let me know what day works best, and I will make with the planning!

We're currently obsessed with stargaze, but I don't think it would suffer terribly from jumping into the middle if you wanted to join us on ant given night. We also watch b5 on Sundays with b and h.

I will be on vacation next thursday and available for other things other times after that.

I think our place is free for that sort of thing starting early next week, if that's soon enough. Shall I call you when I have a firm concept?
