…and it feels so.damn.good. This internship has been a wonderful experience and I couldn’t be happier with the placement I chose. I definitely want to share some of my reflections with you, especially in response to my working woman mission. For now though, I’m going to enjoy this last day and spend my afternoon consuming pints of water, malt, yeast, and hops. PS: check out my man legs in Thursday’s snapshot. I actually ended up taking off the boots and…

Today was wonderful; just how I wish every day could be. I went to spinning before work, rolled into the office around 9:30, left around 1:30 and enjoyed the rest of my afternoon running errands and strolling around Boston. There was nothing going on in the office, so I just left! I went straight to the Teriyaki house on my way home to get Chinese food for one of my counseling cases (since tomorrow will be our last session and…
Today was my last day of babysitting! Now I am officially unemployed. It was a little sad, but mostly exciting. The weather was breezy and in the 70’s – perfect for lying under my tree while the kids played at the park. I wished a had brought a new book to start today, but I just enjoyed the sunshine. Then I took the little guy to J.P. Licks for a special ice cream treat. I got half peanut butter and…
I mentioned yesterday that my Sunday afternoon involved visiting a museum and drinking some of the good stuff. The family I babysit for managed to score two free tickets to Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts, and since I’ve never been, I figured I should go before I leave. What I didn’t know was that there was a breathtaking exhibit of Chihuly’s blown glass creations on display. What a treat! I’m honestly not a big fan of those 1800’s paintings of…
I love this whole having time on the weekends thing. I think I’m still recovering from being booked during the month of May. Despite the chilly weather, Friday even was nice and relaxed. I met Matt downtown afterwork and we grabbed a drink at the Intercontinental Hotel. We had planned on sitting outside on the water at one of the new Seaport restaurants, but decided it was too cold and windy. I still enjoyed a nautical drink – a pineapple…
Hello. How’s life? I finished babysitting around 5:45 today, and just when I was about to call Matt and tell him I was really craving a beer on a patio, he called me to say he was in the neighborhood after his doctor’s appointment (he has a strained meniscus:(). Before I knew it, I was not only sipping a Pretty Things Jack D’or on the patio of Beacon Street Tavern, I was eating one of the most amazing pizzas I’ve…
Today was looong, but for a very good reason! I had an afternoon party to attend (to bid farewell to three employees who are retiring my from department at my internship) and then a final seminar dinner at which I turned in all of my paperwork for my national certification as a school psychologist. The first party had lots of delicious food… I had two tastes of white wines, and decided I’d rather have a beer. There’s something about an…
I’m writing to you from the bus from Hyannis back to Boston! We’ve had a horrendous day of travel, but the weekend really couldn’t have been more perfect, so I knew something would probably go wrong on the way home. Despite arriving for the ferry 30 minutes ahead of time, there was an insane line for the first come, first serve boat. But since we had been assured that the 750-person ferry had only filled up a few times in…
