nothing interesting happens in July

Jul 06, 2009 14:24

hello internets.

Still no job, but some VERY exciting prospects I'm waiting to hear back about. I don't want to talk about it too much lest I jinx it. If I believed in anything, I'd be praying to it right now.

Andrew and I went to Boston for the holiday weekend, which turned out to be lovely. Nice weather, and Boston is totally adorable, plus I saw no less than 25 people dressed in colonial clothing, which only confirms all of my New England-related stereotypes. We also actually saw the fireworks, thanks to a lovely couple who offered us a section of their blanket, plus a guy bought us some fried dough. There was also a patriotic sing-a-long before the show started. We saw the Titian, Tintoretto, and Veronese show at the MFA (brillz.), Harvard, a bunch of old cemeteries, and several historic landmarks along the Freedom Trail. All in all a successful weekend.

The rest of July is looking pretty dull and empty. I should probably resume work on the thesis, but can't even bring myself to open it up and read it. I want to go to New Haven at some point and continue my Ivy League tour of the northeast with the purchase of a Yale sweatshirt for good luck on my application.
