Yeah, I could do that, but I'm paralyzed with not caring very much.

Punishingly Intricate

If I meet B's dad this weekend, maybe I can con him into giving me some help. That's probably a bad thought, maybe.

Not a bad idea at all!!

I also love my neighborhood, btw. We went out (to celebrate another "all clear" visit at the oncologist's...they are all celebratory) to one of our fave neighborhood restaurants and got a round of drinks from the owners and the owner wife's cousin in Galway's phone number for when we are there. Nice! (Also the food is delicious!)

Thrive to spite them

The Burlington Free Press has a huge article about Tim Thomas on the front page. "Timmy's Time". He's UVM alum and so everyone is really excited.

Awesome, lisah. I love Smalltimore. Name the restaurant, I'm trying to rec places for my summer neighbors (and since I don't eat out much, hard.)

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

C'mon, Boston! Do it for Matt the Bruin Fan! He's been your fan online for years!

More than just online, I drove and flew all over the country to see them play in the 90s and early 2000s. And cracked Ray Bourque up by wearing a bear outfit to a road game in Nashville. A few years later, the formerly mascot-less team had Blades. Coincidence?

Goal! Now 4-0 with 3 minutes to go!

And the Bruins win the Stanley Cup! WAHOOOOO!

Email me, lisah. I'm forwarding them all sorts of festival and market and to-do info, but personalized restaurant experiences escape me, mostly. And I know they are interested in exploring good food, having been in a bit of a desert at their last station.

Good lord, Gary Bettman looks like a munchkin standing next to Zdeno Chara.

But Chara is a giant. Chara also made the cup itself look small.

Congratulations, Matt! And the Bruins. That's a long time coming.
