I fear the worst that it was an intentional act.
That's my presumption. It sure doesn't look like a gas-main explosion. And having it set at the finish line looks very purposeful.
It's not like she blew me off. She just left with another guy, that's all.

Would some idiot(s) really want to use the Boston Marathon on tax day to make a statement?

People are often stupid & sometimes crazy. I put nothing past anyone. While still hoping it's an accident or something, because I don't want to believe that someone could intend this.
I'm trying not to worry about anyone I know in Boston--I see no reason most of them would be near the finish line today.

What is Patriot's Day? This sounds like something you made up!

Because books.
It feels very strange to *hope* it was an accident, like a gas main explosion, but I really do.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Holy shit you guys!

It's a Boston holiday/tradition. We were talking about it upthread.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
The other Boston people need to check in please

I'm glad you don't live near the finish line anymore.
