in Boston, and at least it's not snowing... (...yet.)

Matilda, desultor, and i made it to Boston late last night, just in time for me to catch nacht_musik and coraline and go to 400 Highland in Davis for dinner. a fine way to finish this stretch of travelling.

we arrived in New York yesterday evening, fought through some nasty horrible traffic that caused Matilda to overheat for a second or two just before the Holland Tunnel, drove through Chinatown and across Manhattan, and managed to find our way to Wonderland in Queens. driving an enormous old stationwagon across NYC is...well, really, a bit ridiculous. or terrifying. or something. but fortunately desultor is an excellent navigator, and even managed to get us out of NYC again at ~5pm on a Monday without getting caught in any horrible traffic. at least not until we got to Connecticut, but at least the parkway was a pretty drive.

less than 24 hours in NYC, and now i'm in Somerville, well-fed and well-rested, and it's time to get out and wander a bit.

if you're in the area: call me, or send email, if you want to catch up and hang out. and/or come find me at Roast, because there will be fire and music and stories. i'll most likely be heading out of town again, westbound, at the end of next week, so find me before then.

banzai!

please *keep* it not snowing, as syracuse & boston have an alarming tendency to share snowstorms, & i really really really really really don't want any more of those now that it finally looks like spring here!
