I just got back from VT...

and that pretty much sums it up.

I'm reading Mountains Beyond Mountains. I'm at the part where Ophelia, with the inherent task in life of being Roald Dahl's daughter, is experiencing the fortune, and eventual misfortune, of falling in love with Paul Farmer.

Its the second book I've read in a really long time. Which makes me happy about my current state of affairs.

I suddenly got weirded out about being 26. Today I ordered the best crepe on the menu at Mr. Crepe, after 1.5 years of visiting Boston, and 1.5 of living in Boston (Fresh tomatoes with scallions and cilantro with brie). Then I also suddenly got weirded out by people leaving: some for a short while, some for good, some already gone. Maybe its empathy for getting left behind, because I've started feeling like maybe my time might be coming, too.

MJ: but seriously
MJ: are there any countries that you'd rather see?
