Evacuation Day weekend is drawing to a close here in Boston. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to make it down to see the parade today, but there were already more than enough festivities.
Photos from parties at Quinn’s place and my place.
Ryan Pierce made a surprise appearance at Quinn’s place on Friday night. That whole affair reminded me of some of the old MIT parties of ‘yore. Lots of “interesting” people. It seemed like all of the residents of that apartment worked at iRobot, so there were Roombas and Scoobas present as well to help clean up spilled beverages. At my place on Saturday, plenty of Guinness, boiled meat and vegetables were had by all. Some new faces were there, and a good time was had by all. Laurie gets a point for making the irish soda bread, and LeVaur gets one for making an appropriate “Naked Lady” comment at the local british-style pub afterwards. Beyond that, I don’t recall too much!

I missed you guys this St. Pat’s! I did cook up a small New England Boiled dinner for myself and a couple of friends, with some soda bread on the side. They do a parade here, but for some reason they did it the Saturday that was a week before, so it was hard to get excited about it so early. Plus, I imagine that, if I really want serious St. Pat’s action, Chicago’s close enough. After Boston, Madison’s parade would (I expect) be something of a disappointment, mainly because it probably does not involve widespread public drunkenness.
