Hello faithful readers!
I haven't updated this blog for a bit, but I have news to report. I have changed jobs yet again. I think since September 2005, I have had 3 different work places to commute to...now I will be adding another.
I took a job in downtown Boston and I am taking the commuter rail in from N. Billerica.
The past week and a half have been ok so far. There was a late/slow train last Wednesday...but for the most part it has been problem free.
It has taken me a bit to get used to it. I don't like spending around 300 bucks a month just to get to work, but that is the reality.
So in 2010, we'll get it going for real. I need to make some changes to the post template, and after that you'll start seeing posts about my adventures on public transportation.
Ever onward!

Driving to work this morning...and I have beer for a holiday beer swap.

Whoa Ho! Snow!
We got our first major snowfall this morning. Not a big deal...not at all...
Why people act as if they have amnesia and don't remember how to deal/drive in snow is beyond me.
I made it to work within 10 minutes of when I normally get here. So weird.
Anyhoo. Be careful out there, you forgetful ones.

Chickens and Falling Branches
Today on my drive to work I saw a yard full of chickens...yeah, chickens.
They must have gotten out of the pen. They were clucking on the front lawn...pretty close to a busy street. Their owner better wake up and see wha' happened.
I also had to avoid large tree branches on the road. The wind and rain had brought them down. People in front of me were freaking out.
