Spring Is Here!

How do I know?

Not because it was sunny and warm yesterday and every time I had to go somewhere at work I opted to take the outdoor route, rather than navigate the indoor MIT tunnels and hallways.

Because every day that I've walked across the Mass Ave bridge in the last few weeks, there's been a broken dvd player sitting on the ice near the Cambridge side. The ice edge had been working its way closer to the broken equipment, but yesterday while I was walking home I realized the DVD player was gone. It finally melted through. That is my new gage - when the ice on the Charles no longer holds the busted shit people throw on it.
