Ooh! I know a guy whose name is Kirchhan. So, there's two out there.

but I think the people I know most likely to be arrested still can't cross the river into Actual Boston.

Vampires?

For a small metro area, you would be shocked how much psychological distance there is between the two sides of the river.

If I take surface streets, it takes me about 25 minutes and it's 12 miles. If I take the freeway and there is no traffic, it's 17 miles and about 20 minutes. There's a mountain between me and my school, which is at times irritating, but at other times gratifying in keeping some distance in place.

Before we moved, I was 1.25 miles away which took about 15 minutes to walk or 3 to drive. I much prefer my longer commute.

I am already sad that it's coming to a close.

Well, there are other long-running series on audiobook, as well...

Grace was an absolute brat tonight -- crying for the last 45 minutes of being awake -- from shower, to dressing for bed, all the way through eating dinner, when she fell off her chair and something real to cry about. K got her into bed and she zonked.

Meanwhile, Noah got to stay up later than his sister. He helped me make cupcakes for their birthday party this weekend. He then ate his vitamins, brushed his teeth and took himself off to bed without being told. I didn't even realize he was in bed because it was just so quiet.

I think the twins know that when one is being super pilly the other must chill.

OMG, they made a TV movie of Joyti's crime. That is the most ridiculous. I wonder if there were flashbacks to her high school...nah.

I hear much less new music now that my commute is 15 minutes from locking my front door and logging into the work computer if I hit all the lights and that one left turn wrong. Third to a half of that is the parking and walking down to the far corner of the building.

I think if I didn't have plenty of opportunities to indulge in me time, I might not begrudge a longer commute. My ex-next-door-neighbor used to say that her commute on the MARC was the a time she could really indulge in pleasure reading without distactions.

Got Devi on the scale. She's down to 5lbs13oz. From 6lb5oz a month ago. Sigh. And I'm feeding her extra. She's still not acting out of sorts. Sleeps harder, getting more puffiness around her face and had a horrendous nosebleed this evening which she seemed completely unaware of. I had to race around trying to make sure she didn't bloody the walls. If she wasn't so damn spunky and pissy. I'm waiting for her to act weird or drop below 5 lbs, at which point she SHOULD start acting weird, cause that isn't sustainable for her frame, but she's so damn contrary. I'll trust my gut. I'll know.

Newton's third law of twinning?

ita, that is craxy.

Newton's third law of twinning?

Twin exclusion principle? Featuring opposite spins of pill and chill.
