Calli, what Cindy and Nora said. Not only can you get most places via public transit of some sort, but Boston proper is small enough that you can walk the entire length of it in around an hour.

Once you get out to the suburbs, it becomes less convenient, but most places are accessible via the T in one form or another.

Thanks guys! I hope Em recognizes me. I dropped her at school and then got my hair cut!

You look great!

I'm sure Em will know her mama.

Oh, look at the way she's looking at you in that "before" photo, Aimee. She's so mama-smitten.

Your haircut looks wonderful on you.

Does she recognize you with a towel on your head? She'll recognize you. Great haircut! And yay for the outfit.

Ah, theater incestousness. I don't suppose my mentioning that the first tingly adolescent feelings I remember came from watching The Rainmaker ? They kissed, kneeling downstage, and I felt a frisson.

Pretty much keep doing what I've been doing

Sounds good, and fingers crossed that the tests all come back normal!

I'm pretty sure Owen would recognize me if I shaved my head.

When my twin and I were three, my father became commander of his American Legion post and had to shave his beard because of their rules. He's a bit rabbit chinned so he'd always worn one to give his face a little more shape.

Mom says my sister and I cried the first time we saw him without his facial hair.

Cashmere, are you and Christopher doing anything tonight, to celebrate your birthday?

Great cut, Aimee! Love what it does for your cheekbones.

Some men were born to wear beards, I'm afraid. At least, men have an option, there!

Susan, sounds like good advice. You're doing everything you can for Annabel, she's lucky to have you for a mom.

This is me today. [link]

Baby baby baby! Looks fantastic, Aimee. MmmmmHmmmm.

I just won a $50 Amazon gift cert at work for a silly trivia game. Sweeeeeeeeeet!!!!
