I’m a master of procrastination. Instead of working on my new apartment or planning my upcoming West Coast trip…. I’ve watching entire seasons of sitcoms and played with family pictures. It’s oddly fascinating looking at pictures of my parents before I existed. It’s almost as though they couldn’t possibly exist without me. I’ve also walked…
Every time my brother sees me he asks if I’m enjoying “retirement”. Saturday was a mix of productive retirement and Bravo tv. Last weekend, I made a trip to World’s End in Hingham, and it didn’t disappoint. This weekend, I went to Weir River Farm in Hingham. It also didn’t disappoint, but in a very…
I took this picture yesterday morning on my walk by the beach Yesterday was my last day at my job. I really think its the first job I’ve ever quit. I’ve had a handful of jobs over the years (bookstore employee, lifeguard, auditor, graduate assistant, etc) but I don’t think I’ve honestly ever “quit” really…
I love technology there are no two ways about it. So, when on Monday I left my cellphone in the Philly Airport bathroom…. I knew it would be an issue. But, there are a lot of things I do besides use the phone to make calls. So, I decided to make a brief list of…
My family jokes that when I’m not traveling I have a hard time leaving the neighborhood. Since my failed attempt to move into the North End, it could be easily assumed that I’d spend the weekend in the fetal position on the couch…. but I didn’t. I actually got out and explored an area I’d…
So on Friday, I tried to move into the North End. It did not go as planed. I won’t give you all the great details but suffice to say: Crazy Rain. the landlord decided to install new floors. he didn’t finish. there was a saw in the living room the parking permit I paid for…
This past Monday the odometer on my car hit 88, 888 miles. That seems monumental right? I don’t remember many of the other “historic” turns of the odometer, but I do remember the exact moment that I hit 77,777. It was August 23, 2009. I was just about to finish my summer internship in New…
It’s Monday and the end of a busy travel day. I have a lot of personal goals this week that I’d like to accomplish… but here is a quick summary of my weekend. Since everyone loves bullet points, I’m going to use them. If you don’t like bullet points, leave my blog immediately. (Actually please…
Do you ever feel like your balance is just “off”? That’s how I’ve felt this week. Just like I was off balance. I mean there are actual examples of this. On Monday (I think it was Monday), I fell over in the elevator unprovoked. Yes, this is 100% true. Despite being a relatively quite work…
My little brother doesn’t think I’ve very cool. I mean I’m fine with that. I’m 28 years old. I can take it. Almost. I can take not knowing all the cool YouTube videos. SNL sketches. Rappers. Etc. Things I can’t take? I can’t take him thinking that I’m weak. Ok, I can. But when he didn’t…
