I know, I know. It's so early to declare, but after the crab rangoons & water-cress laden veg fried rice I bought at 11:15 last night, which I walked to go pick up, I am ready to declare: I love West Roxbury. Not only was the Chinese food tasty, close by and available late, it only cost $7 and made an excellent dinner then lunch (hence the mid-day, after lunch blog). Now, I know it's early. And I'm sure they'll be plenty I don't like the longer I'm there; there's always something. And it's not Maine, which is Maine and therefore, by nature, better. But people, think about it--I'm moving from Weymouth. There's no way I'm going to sit in my room and think: "I wish I were closer to the Pleasant Shoppes!" Or "I miss the 8000 Dunkin Donuts of Weymouth."
I'm thinking about it here in the middle of the work day because I have to go to Weymouth tonight. Mom and I leave early to get to Bangor for "Prairie Home Companion" tomorrow with the Lewiston clan. [Note: friends in the area, I will only be there for the show and dinner then heading back south. But I will be visiting once this crazy month of May is over. I always liked it a little thinned out up there anyway. May Term was always the funnest time...]
Anyway, I'm trying to figure out how much time I can spend at the apartment before heading to lousy Weymouth.
Alrighty, back to work.
