Brrrr!!!!!!!

The day after the Bomb Cyclone was frigid!  Like scary cold!  Like I needed to wear three pairs of pants, a neck scarf, a regular scarf, a hat, gloves, ear muffs, a hood, and a puffy coat to go get coffee!  The wind was ridiculous and I actually had to stop a few times on the way home from Dunkins to wait out the gusts.  I Ubered to the rock gym to do some running but that was enough for me, so I spent most of the day huddled up on the couch.  I took some time to reread my blogs from the "epic winter" of 2015.  If you want a good laugh, read this post because I think it pretty much sums up the desperation of that time.  Even with the bitter cold and significant snow on the ground, our spirits were high knowing that there wasn't another storm headed our way anytime soon.  And if you looked far enough in the distance, Friday was going to be in the 50s (bye bye snow.)  We just had to survive the record cold first!

We had tickets to a show at the Sinclair in Harvard Square for Friday night.  We debated about going or not but decided if we took Ubers there and back it would be safe.  I'm so glad we did.  One of my new favorite groups, Lula Wiles (see here and here) opened up and they did a great job.  It was great to hear some of their new stuff and the Sinclair is a great venue for a show.

It was also great to get out during the deep freeze although it did make for some difficult fashion decisions.  (I was pleasantly surprised by all of the smart, practical clothing I saw at the Sinclair.)

After the show, we wanted to extend the evening but really couldn't walk too far at all so we found ourselves at Border Cafe sipping on margaritas and eating fajitas!  It was a perfect way to spend the evening!
