Not going to write about 603 CMR, instead I'm going to be Emo about #OccupyMBTA
I'd geared up, leaving the house early tonight at 9:30PM instead of 11:00PM like I normally would for my overnight shift working marketing. I walked up Comm. Ave through Kenmore on a usual route to Commonwealth Mall. It was nearing the midnight hour when I hit the now Occupy MBTA Beacon Hill encampment/ protest, Camp Charlie.
As usual, when I got to the camp, I was out of breath, the walk up Beacon St. from Charles kills me every time. I was stoked to see an opening on the steps, foot and back sore I took a seat. Maybe get a chance to talk to some cats that wouldn't sweat my crazy idea to walk to Washington. Posting up on the steps, chatting with a fellow by the name of John and coming to a brief understanding on context with a nod to past experiences at Dewey.
