Yesterday I put in a full day of work, snagged dry ice and gel-packs and padded envelopes, got six orders of truffles ready for shipping, and still had time to wander around the South End with D and discojesus! We discovered the bizarre wonder of a chocolate calzone with homemade vanilla ice cream.

I feel so accomplished. I even had time to discover that dry ice burnsssss, precious, yes it does, and when placed in a damp spoon it does a little rattly dance. Had a brief urge to fill up a jack o'lantern with some and bike through the neighborhood at night all headless horseman-y, but a) no jack o'lantern and b) I'm not so good at riding around one-handed.

discojesus, for the record, is a hoot to be around. Soft-spoken, wry, and tolerant of small dogs and slightly spacey hosts. And I'm not just saying that because he'll be living right down the street and D will probably forget to get our house keys back from him.

...oh! You guys live in/near Boston! I met a super nice lady at that Amma thing who just moved there to work with some group that has to do with environmental education, and is now temporarily stuck living with her sister's family and a baby that never sleeps. Any ideas/leads on a decent place for her to live? I think she'd be quiet and on the modest and spiritual side, not a major party babe, maybe going to do some graduate work now on environmental stuff plus educating teens about it...

Hmm...the only person I directly know is my friend Naomi, who posted this ad: http://www.livejournal.com/community/davis_square/332963.html?mode=reply

I think there've been a fair number over in the davis_square community?
