When I moved to Boston, I spent a couple of days sitting on empty boxes made into a kind of seat.

Back from the Getaway. Had fun, but am tired.

Man, walking a few blocks to the office is a much nicer commute than being on a shuttle for hours! In other news, I made it to NYC with only one major packing fail that I've discovered so far.

The last bunch of times I've gone to NYC, I manage not to bring the right toiletries, so I'm always buying toothpaste and face wash there. Luckily, there is a drug store on every corner in Manhattan.

Jesse - that has made packing so much less stressful for me. Beyond making sure I have the things that can't just be bought easily (meds, work computer, phone), I try to make sure I have the rest covered, but toothpaste, shampoo, a new outfit, shoes...those can be purchased if needed.
I've only been to NYC once and it was in January during a deep cold snap. After walking all over the place and then going to see 42nd Street, the sole of one of my boots came off completely, so I ended up buying new boots at 1am at a Skechers store. The city truly never sleeps.

That's a perfect NYC story.

And it reminds me, maybe I'm going to see about buying some rain boots when I go out for lunch.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Of Facebook's many sins, I think the worst is that it enables people you vaguely know to spam all of their acquaintances with MLM schemes. No, I do not want to buy your skin care product or leggings or magical lash serum or candle or whatever.

Amen Dana--no, I do not want to be added to your MLM group!
