The alcohol sugars TASTE right to me, which is the only 'artificial' sweetener that does (some taste sweet, but not Right, some have terrible sub- or after- tastes) but more than a dab brings on the intestinal miseries.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I am okay with xylitol in toothpaste, but I don't swallow. In general, it's sugar or agave or nothing for me. I don't need anything sweet enough to handle the weird taste of most of the rest, even if most of them weren't migraine triggers.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just got the best manicure I've had in years, and of course immediately fucked up practically one whole hand getting my keys out. She did say I could come in within three days to get anything fixed, and I did overtip (due to not having the right change for 20%), so maybe I will go back. Oy vey.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
Now I'm trying to book a room on Priceline, and it keeps adding nights. One night! Not two! And now that I've backed up to the beginning, not three nights either!
Is there a way to search for sketchy motels? All my searches keep landing me in hotels. (shoot, there was a hostel that was ridiculously expensive).
Basically, I'm looking for a dive that I only plan to sleep in. I'll bring the febreeze. I know it's been forever since I rented a room, but I'd like to find something in or close to Boston that is ninety bucks or cheaper. I'll even take Quincy.

For the weekend? I would say you can definitely find a nice hotel in the financial district for less than $90 on Priceline, but maybe not 4th of July weekend.

This The Comment Section for Every Article Ever Written About Intimate Grooming Don't know how on-target it is, but it is very funny and sounds like what you would expect.

Jesse, I was thinking Sunday night going into Monday. Does that still count as a holiday weekend?

For tomorrow night, Hotwire shows a bunch of places under $125, which I think means you should be able to get $90 on Priceline.
You could also try the Courtyard Marriott in Cambridge or the Holiday Inn in Somerville -- those are cheaper chains. Oh, there's also a crappy hotel in Harvard Sq -- the Harvard Square Hotel. If you end up there, let me know, because I live around the corner!

I was poking around, so crossposted. Sunday night should be even better, with holiday people leaving.
