There's a storm a brewin'
Apparently, mid-week storms are the hot new trend in Boston. Who knew? Seriously, I think we’ve had one every week since the start of January. They’re forecasting another 10-16 inches this week. Just another foot to pile on top of the already outrageous snow piles. Is it spring yet?!

Living in Silence
No really. And I’m not going to lie, it’s kind of nice. My sister, also my roommate, hasn’t spoken a word to me since this past Monday evening after reaming me out for refusing to get back on the T after I’d just gotten home from a 10 hour day at work to run her laptop to her at school.
