Television

Strange how you can actually feel your brain rotting with every minute you spend watching boring television shows...
unlike most things, even wine doesn't make it better.

So, it was a good day. It throws me off kilter having just one day off versus two in a row. My "weekend" feels less like a mini vacation and more like a sick day. Still, I managed to accomplish a lot at least in exercise. I walked to some new dogs in the Fenway area that I am going to be hanging out with in a few weeks, then to Coolidge Corner, which unsurprisingly already feels awkward. I then biked back to Boston and walked with Mia to the somewhat disappointing Oktoberfest in Harvard Square. Not so German, and not a sniff of beer, but I did enjoy a delicious dinner with Laura and Andy and Jackthedog at their house. Jack and Mia played amazingly well and Andy's long awaited "Torta Rustica" was worth the wait.

And the emotional week has been peppered with good news too! Tara is coming to visit for Thanksgiving and my mom assured me she would pull out all stops to present the Australian with a true American feast, Esterly style.
