Where exactly do you live? *makes mental note*

Likewise, if in New York, say something.

And congrats on getting GIFTed. (Sorry. But not too sorry.)

Somerville, right across the street from Tufts. It is a very nice place, much more so than Boston proper.

And I shall have to next time I am in NY, but I am completely terrible about keeping up with my NY friends. Whenever I am back in the city, I usually spend the entire time with my family. Any given day this always seems like the correct choice (I do rather like them!) but when it means I go for months and months without seeing some people that is a bit troublesome. I shall endeavor to do better!

Well, if you mention your trip in your LJ, then any New Yorkers will probably pounce, helping with the keeping up.

That first article was awesome, btw.

Agreed! This thing needs to be propagated.
