Aw -- I have family in Scituate, but they're kind of in the woods.

My parents rented a summer beach house. Except they were there for 2 years, so they got winter too. Mom recalls the cold drafts, cause beach houses aren't ideal for that. They were a block or two from the water. Last I was in the Boston area, I tried to find the house, but with public transit, it wasn't doable as far as I could figure out. I got as far as Quincy (eta: or maybe Hingam, it's been a while) en route to Worlds End, which was lovely.

I am full and tired. Went running this morning, and then drove up to Muir Woods, where we went for a 5-6 mile hilly hike, and then to the Marin Headlands, and then to Ocean Beach for a great dinner at the Beach Chalet. Am full and very sleepy. Not sure I'll stay awake for all of Drive.

TAR (I am tivoing Drive, to watch on delay): The yield is still not cheating. Get over it. The fast forward would have freaked me out, but it looked really cool. Danny and Oswald are the only team left I like, so I am glad they got it. As little as I like Mirna and Charla, I was impressed with their performance on the detour. Then I laughed at the ferry thing.

TAR: I know! I am really sick of Charla and Mirna's self-righteousness about everything and yeah, that yield had NOTHING to do with you. (And probably helped them -- I bet Eric and Danielle would have at least caught up to them if they hadn't been yielded.) I don't know when I suspected that this might be an NEL but I'm glad it was because E&D almost caught up. The ferry thing was hilarious. And I liked the tasks for this leg - they were all fun. I wonder if we'll get a two-episode leg this time.

Whoops. Taxes must be mailed by tomorrow, April 16. April 17 is only for certain states, none of which I am in. Maine, MD, MA, NH, NY, VT, DC.

Guess I better get on that.

TAR: I'd be okay with the BQs, too. They may not be my favorite people in the world, but they've been consistently strong, and consistently mindful of the fact that it's a RACE. TWoP or someone pointed out the newspaper route comment last week - I think they're not nearly as princessy as they sometimes come off.

Went to the movies. Now, about to go to bed.

But first! Salma Hayek's breasts, real or fake? Got into a quasi-argument with someone who says their slope has changed, that it's no longer natural. I can't see it at all. And I stare at her boobs a fair amount, considering my heterosexuality.

Zenkitty, did you double-check with your state's Web site? Because Ohio (which is where I am [otherwise this would be a pointless, Cliff Claven-esque remark]) has an announcement on the official Web site that Tax Due Day has been moved from the 16th to the 17th.

It's 1 a.m. and I'm still awake. Can't sleep; clown will eat me.

Yeah, Tax Day is the 17th in IL too.
