Looks like it's been forever since I posted a life-update entry. Not a lot's been up lately—mostly sitting around at home, getting stuff done, reading, watching TV, etc. Had a two-day sailing lesson the weekend of the 9th-10th; will talk more about that at some point, but not right now.<\/p>\n

This past Saturday morning, after too little sleep, I took train and BART to SFO, then got on a plane to Boston. Michael came and picked me up at BOS.<\/p>\n

Had a hard time getting to sleep Saturday night. Spent most of Sunday just hanging out at M&L's place. We went to brunch at a place called Tryst<\/a> in Arlington; pretty good food, friendly waiter.<\/p>\n

Had a hard time getting to sleep again Sunday night. Yesterday, got up late, puttered around on computer a bit; in the early afternoon, wandered off to 1369 Coffee House in Central Square, for coffee with new friend Julia R. We ended up spending about four hours having a lovely chat, about all sorts of stuff.<\/p>\n

Then I headed over to Copley for dinner with David VS; we ate at an upscale Japanese place (Douzo<\/a>, I think), then wandered up and down Newbury Street for an hour or two, chatting.<\/p>\n

Eventually took the T and a bus back to Medford, where I once again had trouble sleeping. Dunno what's up with that.<\/p>\n

Today I've just been lounging around, reading Wired<\/cite> (I ought to know better), chatting with Michael, frittering away time online. This evening, off to a roundsing! If you're around and interested and haven't heard about the roundsing, give me a call or text me.<\/p>\n

The next few days look to be fairly similar: no plans 'til midafternoon, then hanging out with friends.<\/p>\n

At some point, I may borrow a car and try to do a little leafpeeping. (I thought about taking along some marshmallow birds but not bringing them back; but that would be peep-leaving.) Might go to aquarium (never been to the Boston one, and I've recently heard good things about it), might wander around a cemetery (a favorite Boston-area pastime on previous visits), but mostly not doing touristy\/visitor stuff while here; mostly focused on seeing friends and relaxing.<\/p>\n

And, I hope, getting a little more sleep than I've managed so far.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
