I just got back from the perfectly delightful Boston area get-together. HUGE THANKS to Isabel and Sparky for organizing such a great day. I was completely uninvolved in any kind of planning because I've been busy with moving and work, so it was incredible for me that Isabel and Sparky did all the work, and I just got to show up and enjoy a fabulous day! In addition to meeting Isabel and Sparky for the first time, I was delighted to meet Sveta - who joined us just before starting her 10-hour roadtrip back home! - and Crazyone.

We had a delicious brunch (that lasted for 3 hours because we just could not stop talking to each other) and then hit the shops. Good shopping success was had by all - you'll have to be in suspense for a bit until Isabel has time to upload the photos, because some of our purchases have to be seen to be believed.

We also talked about organizing a future meetup in Connecticut, ideally somewhere that is accessible from Massachusetts, near Shana, and accessible by train for Maya and any other NYC-area folks to come as well. I think this is a GREAT idea and insist that everyone in the New York/New England area clear their calendars so that all of you can come.

Thanks again everyone for a great day!
