Pittsburgh Does Weird Things to You

As most of you have come to find out about me (and some have come to really dislike about me), I very rarely spend the weekend in Boston. Like a 5-year old, I can’t sit still, and hey, I have a lot of friends that need visiting.

So last weekend I decided a trip to Pittsburgh was in order. Miss Audrey Marks has recently moved back there, I had never been, and I’ve heard nothing but awesome things. Also, they’re filming the latest installment of Batman in the city. Um, when Christian Bale is in town, you go to there.

If you’ve never been to Boston’s Copley Place mall, it’s where Fancy goes to have lunch with her girlfriends Entitled and Oblivious. I worked at the J.Crew there for 6 months while I was in grad school, and I once had a woman literally throw thousands of dollars worth of clothing over her shoulder at me as she rattled off that she could be shopping at Barney’s. So these are the kind of people we’re dealing with. Just painting a picture.
