Ten things I love about Boston:
1. It’s familiar. I grew up in Peabody, which is about twenty minutes out of Boston, so almost all our school field trips were in the city. Also, my father was an auto mechanic who had a tow truck; I remember going along with him on calls [...]

I almost forgot! Today is Wayfarer’s birthday!
Go on over to his place and wish the old guy happy.
(I tried to post a happy birthday cake picture, but my photo uploader is being pissy at the moment, so you’ll just have to use your imagination…

Oh, MAN!
We had a FANTASTIC time! Where do I start?
We left the house in time to sail, virtually unhindered, to Boston around quarter after four. We parked (pahked) way the hell up on Commonwealth Ave, so we took a leisurely stroll past the big, old brownstones of a lovely (read: expensive) Back Bay [...]

… the post in which I make Tense envious (though, since she’s in the home stretch of Blogathon, she may not notice until tomorrow)….
We’re leaving for Boston around 2:30 this afternoon. I’m not sure what Mr. Chili has in mind, but I know we’re planning on dinner in the city. It’ll probably be someplace casual, [...]

JRH, my friend and occasional commenter on this site, is going to have a baby this week. Well, she’s not having the baby - someone else has already done the production work - but she’s certainly going to obtain the baby. I am very, very excited for her, her husband, and her new [...]

I’m posting twice today to direct you to two posts that you MUST read.
NHFalcon has posted an excellently researched and articulated piece about the situation with Michael Vick and the Atlanta Falcons football team. I’m telling you, this man can write. **
Gerry over at TwoBlueDay has written a short, gorgeous entry about the ideas [...]

Guess what I’M doing this Sunday night!
Mr. Chili managed to score tickets to see The Police at Fenway Park in Boston! (insert uncharacteristic, girly squeal here).
He’s told me that I really don’t want to know how much he paid for these tickets, and I’m going to trust him on that (given that some [...]

(you and I, Geek; just two pathetic sheep following the herd… This is the LAST color that I would choose for myself, though the description seems to be pretty much dead-on (except for the bits about movement and travel. I’m not a wanderer. I have root chakra issues - survival, self esteem, social [...]

There are a lot of crappy ads on television. I’m astounded, really, by the moronic quality of most of them and can only name a few (one or two of the Geico cavemen spots, the paper towel ad with the kid and the orange soda, and one or two others) that stand out as [...]
