June 14, 2010

I quit smoking at approximately 1115 on June 14, 2010.

The train station at my work is a 1/2 mile around. I like to walk around it, planted some sunflowers, tad late but we'll see what happens, and take pictures of the trains and buses.

Pictures of MBTA Greenline Trolleys at the Lowell Train Station (don't know where they are going, the Greenline serves the greater Boston area, not Lowell).

Red Sox v. Twins 5/19/10

I'd been sick this past weekend, as well as Monday and Tuesday. Maria called Wednesday morning at 0934 to ask if I wanted to attend a game that evening, Tom got tickets.

I had slept so soundly, finally, that I missed all my alarms, but hopped in the shower, gathered clothing, and headed off to work. When I was making my left turn, Tom was waiting to turn left the other way.

Me: Where is Tom going? Is he ok?

Maria: Oh yeah, he's fine. He's going to pick up the tickets.

The topic prior to the game was transportation. I had a dentist appt in Burlington at 1430, expected to end around 1515. Maria would transport herself to Burlington via Kevin, we'd drive to Sullivan Station, and then hop on the T.

Maria left work at 1330, I left at 1355, made the dentist appt, and Maria and Kevin showed up shortly after 1530. Everything worked fine, got the T (ran for the orange line), hopped on the green (any green but the e), and ended up at Game On. Wonderful burgers, were early enough to get a seat by the window, and got ponchos for $3 each, just in case.

Here are the pictures from the game:




































when i have some more time, i'll put up pics from the 5/8/10 game
