Post?
I guess I should probably update this thing.
So I've been in Boston for over a month now. It's alright I guess. I live in an ok part of town. It's not the ghetto, but I do live next to a halfway house full of crazies. Being woken up at night by some guy yelling gibberish is a regular occurrence. My housemates are pretty cool. Michael's a lazy bum, but he's nice. Andrea cooks for us a couple of times a week. Good food too, a lot of salmon and chicken dishes.
As for work, it's enjoyable. I am the Systems Engineer. The two other guys just do chemical sensor crap. So it's my job to develop a full-blown wireless solution to interface with their sensors. A lot of responsibility and therefore pressure.
I haven't explored Boston too much. I went down to Newport last Friday to check out some mansions with Michael, Andrea, and their friend Kyle. Then my lovely lady came to visit for the weekend. Speaking of which...
I had gotten a really bad summer cold in Newport, so that kinda killed the weekend some. But Laura and I got out to see X-Men and explore Harvard Square. X-Men was decent. It was interesting to see what they did to the Phoenix storyline to adapt it to the big screen. Laura and I got free dinner at Uno because the waitress messed up. That always helps with my constant money issues.
Life here's pretty good and I would say that I'm content. Now if only Laura lived with me things would be almost perfect.
