This morning, I'm writing from a sunny New York City. The skies are blue, it's pleasant out, heck, even the constant honks of unamused vehicles sound cheery from my twelfth-floor perch.
But maybe I'm just not paying good attention to said honks' real feelings, seeing as I'm busy packing.
Now it was rainy and crap in Boston when I left it Sunday, and I suppose it's not all that surprising that a few hours south along the coast it was still rainy and crap. And I came on this little 2-day jaunt specifically for a museum exhibition, something essentially unaffected by weather. Hell, I might have benefited from the rain there; the museum was already massively crowded, which I can only assume would have been worse if the wait time in the line outside hadn't been such a dampened affair (though it may also have been better, as a museum's appeal rises exponentially on a rainy day...).
The point is that, no matter why I came on my vacation, no matter my expectations of what I would do/see/accomplish, bad weather is always a downer.
Which is why it always seems to clear off just on time for you to head to the bus home...

The Truth About This Special Time In Your Life
According to what we remember from pamphlets geared towards 6th-grade girls, puberty is regarded as one of the most awkward and scary stages in a person’s life. It’s a time of horrifying physical transformations, scary new feelings, and growing interest in activities that you are still not old enough to engage in legally. Common symptoms of puberty include: braces, frizzy hair, baby fat, having a crush on 8th grader Steve Julius, blinding body odor and lame extracurricular interests like the violin or Bedazzling.
However, if personal experience has taught us anything, it's that there are experiences in life far more awkward, scary and pathetic than puberty. Here is a list of things that are:
WORSE THAN PUBERTY
