Last night, after dinner, we got the girls in jammies. Then they hugged and kissed Daddy goodbye.

There’s a science meeting in Boston until Thursday. At the airport. Well, technically, it is at the hotel on the airport grounds. Jay loves the hotel. Traffic in metro Boston is not good. We have three roads (I-93, Rt 1 and Rt-3) that come together in the center of Boston known as the central artery. As many of us know, if you have a central artery, you have have cardiac arrest. This happens everyday in Boston.

Since the meeting starts, oh, 7:30 in the morning, we decided that Jay should stay at the hotel for the meeting.

This means I have kid duty alone last night and today. It’s not bad, and the kids are doing just fine. Tomorrow, one of sitters can come and we’ll have dinner in Boston. A late anniversary dinner. Did I mention the hotel rooms are sound proof?
