Hi from Boston

We made it up here in record time yesterday. We listened to the new Neil Gaiman children's book "Fortunately the Milk" which was cute. Reminded me of Hitchhiker's guide, with its zany Britishness. Conversations in the car ranged from anime, 80s cartoons, 80s edutainment (tombs and talismans, encyclopedia), feminism, religion, video games, and library shenanigans.

Then we had delicious gourmet pizza for dinner and wandered to the grocery store and bought ice cream (they had the Anchorman "scotch scotch scotch" which was delicious!) conversation when we got back ranged from Christians and pagans and who took over whose festivals, Santa, krampus, what hardcore drugs do to people...and then somehow we ended the night learning about the saga behind the autofellatio photo on the entry on Wikipedia. Lol. (Mathew always knows the most random internet things).

Now we are waiting our turn to shower so we can go find food! Becky recommended The Friendly Toast and their website looks awesome. :-)

Weather is fab, vacation is off to a good start.
