i love boston in the fall
(tried to post this yesterday and couldn't so i'm trying again - pretend it went up on monday.)
hey ho! so, i'm in boston today, for 2 short days and 3 short nights -- after a VERY whirlwind weekend with conor's family & friends in nyc and connecticut. i haven't been back here in many moons, as i've mentioned in previous posts, and i have to say... it's great to be back!
seeing the charles river this morning made me completely giddy.
i drove by the MIT boathouse on mem. drive while on my way to the media lab, and saw good old tom the boatman out on the docks -- and it made me even MORE giddy with glee... if only he could have heard me screaming hi through the car windows!
seeing my old professor briefly, talking to his new students, having lunch with a good friend, running along the esplanade during the afternoon, meeting old friends for dinner and drinks... all of the above has made me more happy than i can express here in words. i've always loved this town and always will.
top that off with the changing colors of the leaves, the glow of the brick and ivey and everything "harvard" during sundown, and being in my sisters' awesome apartment surrounded by all sorts of comforting knick-knacks i recognize from childhood, and you have one happily nostalgic girl.
and its only been 24 hours.
