Drove Anne to the airport today, and made the massive mistake while leaving to be a bit proud of driving into Boston. Even if it is not actually city driving because you never get off the highway, we hadn't got lost! Which of course meant that the toll leaving the airport was two dollars more than coming in, so I didn't have enough to take the Pike, so I had to just randomly get on 93 in order to get out of the city without a toll. And proceeded to miss the exit that would have led to a reasonable route home, instead taking an extremely roundabout way that led close enough to my grandmother's that I stopped in to steal her Jell-o mold instead of bothering to drive back that way tomorrow. So that's one plus? But hey, it had been a whole six days since it took me three times what it should to get somewhere, clearly something was due!
Anyway, my sister is now off to San Francisco, from whence she shall roadtrip home. I am busy being consumed by jealousy. WHATEVER, she's missing out on all the delicious homemade challah French toast, the rocking Jell-o salad and dobos torte that are being made next weekend, and also a trip down the Cape. So there, Grand Canyon.
And now an evening to watch more Life on Mars and frantically put away all the school things my parents think are already away before they arrive tomorrow!
