I was so graciously given this award by Mrs. Guru. She is just so sweet!Laura also tagged me to do a fun little book post, but I'm currently at work and have no books near me! I'll try and remember to do this when I get home.
So the big news in my life is that Alicia and I got all kinds of lost last night--in a car with no locks. Oh man. We wound up in a Dunkin Donuts parking lot (side note: why oh why do people in Boston say D&D when the name of the restaurant is NOT Dunkin AND Donuts?) where Alicia could check the map and I could keep a look out for danger.
We eventually wound up at a really sketchy industrial warehouse under the Tobin Bridge aka a pretty likely place to run into the mob. Be still my heart. We got out of there fast. It was so frustrating to see the bridge, know we needed to be on the bridge and then not be able to get on the bridge. Still, we kept our cool. We're chill girls, you know? Also, it was only 8:00 a night. Super sketchy things normally happen later, right?
Well, anyway, we finally came upon that glorious view of the city and rejoiced. To celebrate, we drive through Beacon Hill and tried to peek in people's windows. Yes, we are creepy like that. Yes, you too would spy into the houses in Beacon Hill. They are that amazing.
So that's the news from these parts. We did not Die & Die at the Dunkin & Donuts.

ReplyDeleteand, for the record... it's DRUNKIN' Donuts.
ReplyDeleteAt least you girls had fun! I want to see these houses!
ReplyDeleteHousewives don't get stuck underneath the Tobin bridge after sunset. That's probably because they have brains. Ooops.
ReplyDeleteThree cheers for future cake decorating adventures!
