Earlier….

When I left the aptartment this morning I noticed some spring flowers stretching out.

That’s not how I spell “decor”

Perhaps it’s a witty redundant pun, on ‘more’ -> ‘decore,’ but I think the sign deserves a red squiggly under the last word in the sub-hed

We got a few inches of snow again today. Boston’s hasn’t melted away all of the snow since around 12/26/2008 which, in a way reminds me more of what the weather was like growing up in New York. What’s a bit different is that this is Boston, and I’m pretty sure those are not cat footprints… more likely, it’s a sizable rat.

This is not what my front yard looks like today, but it is my front yard. It’ll be warm again sometime soon won’t it?
