I can't believe it's July already. It's cold, so it doesn't feel like July. Also it's been raining quite a bit. I like to walk by the Mystic River where it's very shady and breezy, and in theory it would be perfect for not being too sweaty after a walk, but it's still very humid.
Last night I had a dream that I was still in Hawaii. It was really weird because I remembered that I used to live there, but it was all very blurry and fragmented, like I was dreaming about a dream.
Yesterday I realized I had no casual clothing. In Hawaii, I would wear work clothes and pajamas and little else (interpret that as you like), but I never wore just regular going-out-in-the-daytime clothes very much. So I attempted shopping a little bit. Useful tip: Target has good, cheap t-shirts!
Also I went yesterday to Harvard Square and drank iced hot chocolate at Burdick's. Now I was always skeptical of iced hot chocolate--how could that be different from chocolate milk? But it was delicious! Kind of expensive, but so, so tasty!
I ate a cannoli at Modern Pastry in Medford. I kind of felt like I was eavesdropping on some mob bosses. The cannoli was decent, but I'd probably still take the gun.
There's a little bit of bitter that's seeping into my Boston bliss. There's a thing that I'm dreading, and I'm not looking forward to having to deal with it, but I will deal with it--probably with a mix of active distraction and avoidance. I'm just annoyed at myself for letting this stupid thing bother me, but I just have to imagine that I'll manage, and in a short time, I won't be bothered by it anymore. Also I'm aware that this is super vague.
It still amazes me how late the sun stays up here.
