Sorry for the lack of updates, all's well just busy with girlfriend and work. Both which are going swimmingly (knock on wood). Some quick bullets and then a call for ideas.
1. Saw Harry Conick Jr , he gave a great live show.
2. New favorite bar in Boston, Deep Ellum. Good food, craft beer, and old timey cocktails. I reccomend the gin fizz which tastes like a creamsicle. Also for a hip time check out Les Zygomates in the Leather District, great jazz trio on Friday nights and the fondue's delish.
3. Fingers are crossed for NBA lotto tonight, hope Red can give the C's some luck.
4. I graduated from Simmons on Saturday. Well I think I did but I didn't walk. I'll pick up my diploma this week.
Lastly, my episode of Jeopardy airs on June 27. I'm trying to figure out the best way to have a viewing party with the following points to consider: family, friends, price and parking.
Early thoughts so far include:
A) Here at the Apt. Pro's : easy to get too, convenient for Boston based friends, food will prepared in house/catered, take advantage of our new 37" tv, also with a tv in both steve and megs room we could seat more people. Con's: Tough for my fam to join during work week, parking is a bit tight.
B) Central Mass: Either at my folks or at Zade's (my grandfather). Pro's: Convenient for fam, cheap. Con's: hard for friends to join
C) Bar/Restaurant- Options include Sports Depot in Allston (lots of TV, good food, large seating capacity), Uno's at Harvard Ave (basement has TVs although a bit divided with booths), Boston Beerworks, BU Pub, etc. Pro's: lots of tvs, food already there, conv for friends. Cons: cost, hard for fam, parking depends on location.
I'm leaning towards A (the apartment) but what do you guys think?
