Back from Beantown

I'm back. I had fun, and it was cold. Overall Trip rating: 4 stars. (I am giving beantown a 1 star penalty for weather) Other than that everything was Great! I have pictures to post but I couldn't get to my computer last night. I was too tired to think, I decided that I was just going to walk around in the 3 pairs of new shoes that I bought while on the trip. I'll post pictures this week.

I was dreading coming to work today. Truth is that change of scenery works perfectly to clear your mind and think about stuff. Especially when you have a few hours of bus ride to work with. I'm sure that I'll be better able to focus now on what is important in my life. I have formulated a few ideas in my head already. The next couple of days should be pretty low key though.

Gross story from the subway. Riding in to work this morning I managed to get a seat on the subway. Most times i can but it was crowded today since it is the day after the holiday and i was running late. So i sit in the middle of a big fat guy on my left and a seemingly harmless young lady on my right. I pull out my magazine and get comfortable to start reading when all of a sudden: I notice that the lady on my right had a cockroach crawling all over her! My strong gag reflexes took over and I started to panic. I think I might have broken into a sweat. She didn't notice. Her stop was next, she got up cockroach in tow and got off the train. Relief for me, the roach is gone, but I still tremble a little thinking about it. The trauma is still fresh in mind.
