Purl & Java

I've been a very neglectful blogger. Bad, bad blogger!

Leander and I have been in the process of moving to Boston. We finally got DSL set up in the new place, and life looks like it just might get sort of/kind of back to normal sometime in the distant future.

...I suppose that depends on my definition of normal. Boston and Nashua are very different, but it's good to be home.

I'm not usually all that interested in local politics, but the welcome note we got from the mayor of Boston and the BPD (attached to our lease) telling us how very naughty students are made me wonder if it won't be long now before a student group realizes that the mayor and the police making blanket, negative public statements about a minority group is probably profiling--or even age discrimination.

Maybe not, but being told that I am part of a problem that "plagues the neighborhoods" and would subject me to "close scrutiny by the police" didn't make me glad to be me. This combined with the mayor's insensitive campaign to make Boston "America's Walking City" doesn't exactly put him on my favorite politicians list.

If only I actually was Hermione Granger...

You scored as Hermione Granger, You're one intelligent witch, but you have a hard time believing it and require constant reassurance. You are a very supportive friend who would do anything and everything to help her friends out.
