Finished hibernating

Jeebus! It was ridiculously cold today that I totally forgot it was summer. Dear Mother Nature, it's still August... give us a break but don't roast us too much either, haha.

I just came home from watching the Simpsons movie. I wasn't too thrilled but it wasn't bad either. I still don't understand why so many advertising dollars were put into it though. The TV show has been successful for almost two decades and everyone knows about the Simpsons, unless they've been living under a rock. There's no need to create so much hype unless a brand new unknown movie is in the works.

So what have I been up to this summer? Last month I took off a few days from work to relax in Boston and spent one day in Cape Cod. It rained on my way back to NYC and luckily not when I was on vacation. I'd have to say my favorite part was whale watching. I saw a few minkes and humpbacks poke their heads out of the water. The photo below is the best one I got of a humpback. I call him Willy's cousin.



If you live in New York or any other state and think you've had the best clam chowder in your life, think again. Boston makes the best clam chowder (Bostonians say "chow-dah"), hands down!



I hope everyone else is having a great summer. It's hard to believe that it's coming to an end soon =(

Hibernation? That was more like being dormant...just goofin'! The temperature today was wick'd cool[Bostonian reference], but it wasn't bad. I couldn't help but think about global warming myself. Unfortunatly the weather is gonna keep shifting on us from this point on.

Btw, I imagine it was an amazing experience to see those whales. Post more pics!
