Things to think about...
So Wednesday was a Ballston BID happy hour/giveaway/meeting people event from 5 to 7ish... but...
-really shitty traffic meant I couldn't get there until 6 (which was at least time for the giveaway, though I didn't win anything)
-I was preparing for it to be my dinner like last time, but there was pretty much no food; just wine
-there were announcements about how "Ballston Quarter" was going to be built up: saying there were exciting restaurants "to be named later" and awesome Wi-Fi throughout the entire district, but all I could really think of was
I REALLY hope I don't get priced out of there when it becomes even more in demand!
(to be honest, half of what they were describing sounded like "upper-class Millennial catnip" ;))
And the rest of the week?
rain, bad weather, and etc (making me feel awful) predominated, though at least I got to enjoy a happy hour or two?
(And last night, not counting an interruption around 11 AM, I ended up sleeping for like *12 hours*! At least I got to have a tasty brunch and do some swimming this evening...)
