Officially moved to Boston! 

And by moved to, I mean staying with Liz and Sar for the summer. 

I mean you know it's pretty serious when keys are exchanged. 

It hasn't really hit me yet that HERE I AM. I think it's because I have no set schedule yet. So I still feel like this is a joke vacation and there is a final to study for or paper to write that I'm forgetting. Thing is, at home if I have free time, it usually means a run or a nap (okay let's be honest, a nap). Here though it's like when I was in Florence, there is SO MUCH to explore that napping would just be rude. The whole city would think I was just rude for sleeping when I could be aimlessly wandering.

Which is just what I did today. Applied for jobs that will pay me and then proceeded to go for a run and then walk around a bit. Tomorrow there will be loads more of that.

Friday night I got back to Southbury and proceeded to talk Mom and Sean's ears off. My day to day in Jersey left me talking to a dog for the majority and I was slightly starved for humans. (Kristina was great but had homework, friends of her own and a bed time). I hadn't seen my brother in actual months and my Mommabear in what FELT like months (one week) so I was happy to stay up talking. 

Saturday we were up and at 'em...I know that's a phrase but it's weird to type. Maybe its one of those things people just say? I won't write it again. ANYWAY Saturday we awoke from slumber and were off to Bahston. Moving me in conveniently coincided with Earthfest sponsored by WholeFoods and Radio 92.9. This meant that the free samples were healthy and the music was good! We had a lunch of free samples- pizza and Nantucket Nectar. We should have really stocked up on those dranks because MY GOODNESS it was hot. (For some of us, others were smart and sat in the shady spots). 

We had a spot right by the water and adjacent to the stage. Plopped ourselves down and enjoyed the atmosphere, patiently waiting for Third Eye Blinds appearance. 

I dozed off at one point and opened my eyes to find Liz gone. Where was she? Oh just off getting the best lemonade you ever did taste. We were all a little too sunned and it did just the trick!

Here's our man Stephan Jenkins, on stage in sweltering heat in a black hoodie.

 Only you Stephan, only you.

The four of us than went to Tasty Burger, which never fails to be the most delicious burger and fries. Once Sean and Kiks were on the road again, Liz and I got back, rested a bit and then Sara returned from Reach The Beach. After some deliberation and showers we decided that it was only fitting to go out for a bit. I'm glad we did, and I'm pretty sure so are the majority of people that got a kick out of our dance moves at the bar. Silliest/weirdest moves definitely go to the three of us on Saturday!

On Sunday it was glorious out so Liz and I walked to the park. Spent the day reading/napping/drawing in the park till it was time for Liz to go to yoga. 

We also so a tragic duckling/parent separation and than A REUNION! It was beautiful.

Sar and I got salads and they were delicious, so I took a picture (OF COURSE)

That's been Boston so far. There will be plenty more pictures and stories. Cheers
