The skies were amazing: the the east you could see the dark storm clouds heading away, and from the west you could see blue skies. We&#8217;ve had the warmest December (and, so far, January) on record and the trees don&#8217;t know what to do. We discovered cherry trees starting to blossom!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"443\" alt=\"boston 01.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.law.harvard.edu\/snarl\/files\/2007\/01\/boston%2001.jpg\" width=\"292\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Saturday night we returned to my place to have dinner and watch a movie. When we arrived, I noticed a note had been slid under my door. It was from the upstairs tenant &#8211; notifying me that the landlord had contacted her because of noise complaints and apologizing for any inconvenience she has caused. It started off nice enough, but by the second paragraph she started accusing me of being too loud! Apparently, I cheer and root too loudly when football games are on and my team scores.<\/p>\n<p>Me: The gayest person on earth not only watching football &#8211; but getting loud and rowdy when they score. I can&#8217;t watch a game for more than 30 seconds\u00a0even\u00a0if just to look at the men in tight unifoms. Hell, I can&#8217;t even watch the sports segments on the news. This chick is OBVIOUSLY pulling at straws and making stuff up to make me think she hears me. I mean, I am typically home only\u00a0three nights per week since I&#8217;ve been staying at Randy&#8217;s so much. Plus, with Thanksgiving on Cape Cod, a week in Japan, Christmas back on Cape Cod again,\u00a0and then vacation in Montreal, I was only at home at, at the most, 6 nights in the past 6-7 weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Ugh&#8230;I was thisclose to thinking she was actually sincerely apologetic&#8230;now she&#8217;s just lying. And I&#8217;m sure she&#8217;s lied to the landlord, too, while defending herself.<\/p>\n<p>Oh well. I&#8217;m just going to look at these pretty pictures to distract myself now. No sense in letting the tension build again.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"328\" alt=\"boston 02.JPG\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.law.harvard.edu\/snarl\/files\/2007\/01\/boston%2002.JPG\" width=\"393\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"297\" alt=\"boston 03.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.law.harvard.edu\/snarl\/files\/2007\/01\/boston%2003.jpg\" width=\"394\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"431\" alt=\"boston 04.JPG\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.law.harvard.edu\/snarl\/files\/2007\/01\/boston%2004.JPG\" width=\"305\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"416\" alt=\"boston 05.JPG\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.law.harvard.edu\/snarl\/files\/2007\/01\/boston%2005.JPG\" width=\"304\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"336\" alt=\"boston 06.JPG\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.law.harvard.edu\/snarl\/files\/2007\/01\/boston%2006.JPG\" width=\"412\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"307\" alt=\"boston 07.JPG\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.law.harvard.edu\/snarl\/files\/2007\/01\/boston%2007.JPG\" width=\"411\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Plans to get together with a group of friends at a bar\u00a0on Friday night\u00a0fell though.
