You Don't See Many Ninjas 'Round These Parts
Heading into town on Friday, getting off the train, I saw a girl wearing a blue Naruto-style ninja headband with a musical note on it. This led to the following conversation:
Me: "Hey, I've seen you somewhere before, haven't I?"
Ninja: "Possibly."
*awkward silence*
Me: *realizing that there was really no point to saying that in the first place* "Er... sorry to bother you..."
As it turns out (not entirely unexpectedly), this person was one of the other regulars at anime club. She showed a little after I arrived:
Me: "I knew I recognized you from somewhere. Then again, there can't be that many people running around Boston wearing ninja headbands."
Ninja: "I've run into other people wearing those on the train before."
Me: o_O
So, apparently Boston has a relatively (compared to zero) high number of ninja-filker-Naruto-fans. How interesting.
What else... I've been working on my midterm paper for linear algebra this weekend.
Also, today (yesterday) was t3h K4t's 20th birthday, so there was a party for that. Happy birthday, K4tz0r (although I doubt you're reading this; no matter, I told you in person, too).
