Where are the New England Peeps?

So I missed Game Three. Meaning, I'm PUMPED today. 3:30 can't come soon enough.

And? My trees are finally in leaf. Plus I like the weather today. Happy Sunday.
 
Well that was a day for Boston Sports.

The Bruins unnerved me a little. I dropped the spouse at Logan which was a total fustercluck (Sumner Tunnel closed plus rain). Decided since i was stuck in traffic to listen to the Bruins, mostly the second half of the second period. Panthers scored their first goal while I was listening, and it felt like the Bruins were hanging on by their fingernails for the rest of the second period. Apparently it got better, but I shut it off for the intermission.
 
Ouch. That's all I'm gonna say. Also, it's going to rain most of this weekend. Ouch. Ouch ouch ouch. Also grumble. how's everyone doing?
 
Its good to see this thread is alive again.
Even though some people are not thrilled by the focus on sports.
But I have to say it
When Tatum is hot, he can be unstoppable.
 
so, New England... I'd say spring into summer fun but these last two days... feel like mid November in the amount of cold and gray... how's everyone doing?
 
So... it looks like this New England girl will be going "home" of sorts. I'm from CT, but I might be moving to Roslindale, Mass, within the next six months (depends on my divorce, and whether or not he can get housing separate from me.) Tell me about the area, if you're a Bostonian. I grew up in West Haven, CT, but I've never been to Boston. This will be a culture shock, but I'll have my best friend nearby.

Wish me luck!

Hi there.

Roslindale... Nice area, skinny streets, parking's a bitch, apartments are typical three-deckers. Not a lot of crime. If you're on the west side, near the Arboretum, it's like you're living in Newton. But most of the neighborhood is a lot more urban. It's a good place to live, as Boston neighborhoods go. Not nearly as trendy as JP, nowhere near the crime of Dorchester or Mattapan.

TL;DR: if you're looking at the southern neighborhoods of Boston, Roslindale's probably your best bet.

PM me if you need more specific info. I used to know the area quite well.
