one of my favorite parts of the day is the drive home. well, at least on days like today, when traffic is minimal, and i get to enjoy the fact that my drive includes heading on 93 into town, and getting the view of the city first from far off, with the pru and the hancock dominating the skyline, and then right into downtown, where the highway looks like its about to plunge into the jungle of buildings.
i really really wish it would be possible for me to take a picture each day - the same skyline, different stages of sunset, different cloud formations. i wanted to do this with the sunset of our house in california (we lived on top of a hill, and the view was spectacular and different every evening) and i never got to, and regret it to this day. unfortunately, i just can't of how that would be possible considering i'm driving, and the road has no shoulder during this whole stretch. i've tried to keep my eyes open for a place to stop, but there just isn't one i can find! *sigh*

this also makes me wonder just how much of that view will be taken away once the big dig is done. i honestly doubt it would do anything significant for the congestion, as they're only adding 1 lane, and i will be very unhappy if they take away the feeling i have when driving towards boston.

on the negative sides of the day though, it looks like hiring movers to take the old fridge out would cost $120, which nullifies it as an option. we really need some brawny men to come over here and help us move it downstairs! *sigh*

but, back to good news - the white bodystocking arrived : )
now i get to try it on to see if it fits, and then put the dress on top of it to see if it looks good *crossing fingers*

also talked to my grandma today - she said her and my grandfather will probably come up to the area at the end of November, and this time she promised to actually come visit (we have other relatives in the area, so, like the rest of my family, she has never seen where i live)... though its kind of sad that the only reason i know she will make a point of coming here is to meet the cat. (its nothing against her - the drive here from NJ is tough for them, so once they arrive they just settle into the place of destination, and its easier for them to have me visit where they're staying. its just that everyone in my family, except for the one time my parents were convinced to glimpse at my prospect st. apartment, doesn't actually have any real desire to see where i live).
so yeah.
and for some reason,i'm exhausted.
