Today I'm in Somerville, Massachusetts. It's a lovely 60ish degrees and sunny out and I'm sitting in my brother's room writing. There's something about this town that I love and I can't put my finger on it. Perhaps it's coming out of the subway station and not seeing concrete and a thin layer of soot on everything. Maybe it's the gorgeous summer weather. Maybe it's the large number of bikers and pedestrians. Maybe it's in the air or not having to use a car even to get groceries. Whatever it is, I'm really enjoying it here and I've only been here since Friday night. Saturday night was a party on my brother's fiance's (we'll call her "Ellie") place and last night was dinner at Ellie's after we took Zach to the airport. He goes to Houston, TX every month for work stuff. Sad, but true.
Today, I'm not sure what I'm going to do. I've given some thought to going to the Harpoon Brewery at 4pm for a tasting. I may just find a park somewhere, perhaps even the Common, and just relax for a while. The possibilities are truly endless.
