Things about Boston:

1. People actually know how to drive!

2. People don't actually need to drive. Fact: The last time I filled up my gas tank was in Allentown, and I've been in Boston for 3 weeks. Also my PA license plate just fell off a couple weeks ago. Seriously, I just walked up to my car and noticed it was holding on by a single, very loose screw.

3. Folks talk weird.

4. EVERYONE has an iphone. Not in the sense that Boston's like really technologically advanced, it's just that the iphone is THE smartphone of choice here. Seriously, if you're on the T and you whip out a blackberry, everyone instantly judges you.

Other tidbits:

I've checked out a couple churches in the area, and am planning on another visit this weekend, but I'm pretty sure I'll be going to Fenway Church, which meets in a bar named "Church." It's awesome.

The job is amazing.

I really love Boston's public transportation. Yes, it may be true that I've never experienced good public transportation and the novelty hasn't worn off yet. But seriously, you meet some crazies on the T.

I could see myself becoming a Red Sox fan, but only as my AL team. I think Red Sox fans and Phillies fans might actually have quite a bit in common.

My house is OLD. And my roommates are awesome. One is engaged, the other soon to be so. And I moved in on Valentines day. So if we got through that awkwardness, I think we're gonna be just fine. :) We are the bottom floor of a 3-floor house with 4 ladies above us and a family of 4 (soon to be 5) on the third floor. John, the dad of said family, is far outnumbered as he is the only dude in the entire place. Our landlord, Angelo, is an extremely Greek gentleman who sends his various relatives to fix stuff when it breaks. Elderly Thomas came over to fix the oven the other day, and, needless to say, hilarity ensued.

So Boston is a pretty cool town, so far. I must say, it's nice to actually know someone here for once! And it's actually more of a hub for travelling friends, and easier for me to be able to go here and there for weddings and whatnot. So far, I have this to say: Nice going, Boston. Keep it up, and I might end up falling for you.
