(Heavy SIGH)
I have been in the state for "Crabs" for only a few days and it's already wearing me out... Who made this state??? Terrible Idea. I will say (and this will sound gay) I found a great mall here to shop at... I have already started my Christmas shopping.... How exciting? I really do enjoy buying stuff for people, I think that Gift Certificates, unless you really don't know someone, are the best way to say, "hey, I could really care less about putting effort into buying you something so here's the Lazy way out" it almost reminds me of the Italian Mafia where they give their wives $100 and say "go get yourself something nice" just to get them out of their hair. I take pride in the fact that when gifts are called for, I put concerted effort into finding that one special thing for someone so when you receive a gift from me, it usually has thought and effort behind it... for example, I shopped for about 2 hours today and bought for just one person and only got them two things... I think that's probably why I start my shopping in October. Anyways, I thought that maybe I would get a back rub by one of them Chinamen in the mall... I wouldn't be the first bit surprised to wake up with bruises all over my back... I thought that maybe he wanted to fight... Needless to say, that crap hurt... no thanks. and let me top it off with a typical Jonathan Burke story... I have never been a fan of kiosks in the mall... they usually lash out at you and rub some lotion on your hand, try to pluck your eyebrows, get you to buy a pound puppies calendar... but this one, the "Hefty" young lady was just sitting there reading a book and minding her business... That actually lured me in... she was selling what looked to be "bootleg" CD's and I thought, "man, that's odd, selling bootleg cuts in the mall... right across from FYE" then I looked up and read the sign... "Straight from D.C.... "Go-Go cuts".... now you KNOW you are in the Ghetto when they are selling Go-Go CD's in the mall on CD-Rs...

enjoy your time there! go to the aquarium, i hear it is amazing, take a picture at camedon yards (oreols baseball field) and have some fun, as i see you have already managed to do at the mall!
Well I guess I won't be getting you a gift certificate! JK.. I definitely could understand that possibly being in Baltimore by yourself could be not fun. However, for the most part it is a beautiful city with a lot of history. There is a pub in the downtown area a few blocks away from the Aquarium towards the baseball stadium called "Burkes" pub or restaurant. Check it out cuz Josh and I want to go sometime, just haven't had the chance. We miss you and will see you this weekend hopefully!
