I don't know what I did to deserve dreaming that I bailed on a boring and alienating party and ran into Van Heflin who was sneaking out of a similar dinner function, but it was great.

Although the MBTA fell over to the point that it was faster to walk to Porter Square than wait for the next bus—so I did—I still met [personal profile] choco_frosh at the bookstore and we set off for an afternoon of hanging out, which turned out to involve discovering the Boston Printmakers' North American Print Biennial 2017 at the Lesley University Arts Center (where I fell in love with Neal Harrington's The Fish Lady of Toad Suck Holler (2016), which I cannot afford at $850 an ink-washed woodcut but long for anyway, because it looks even better in person) and Harvard's I ♥ Science festival at the Museum of Natural History (where I petted a gravid hissing cockroach and had a wonderful conversation about jellyfish) and winding up at Tatte's afterward for hot tea and baked goods. It never rained on us very hard and I have a money cowrie in my pocket, from the Boston Malacological Club. I may be taking my ungodchild to the aquarium next week.

And now I am watching figure skating with my mother, because that is the important thing about the Winter Olympics.
