Donna's Birthday: A Movie and Pizza

Near midnight,
Just arriving home from the film from Boylston, near Emerson College. While I was there I asked for a pair of 3D glasses. I owned a three d film in super eight fifty feet when in junior high school and wanted them in the event I find anything on the Internet in three d. I actually needed them for an online course in Victorian Stereoscopic photography a couple months ago.

Yesterday we had lunch and there was a wild rabbit outside the Massachusetts Ave Baptist church, which is just before The Carpenter in regard to Harvard Square. For my own memory, the sincerity with which she said,"I would like an egg salad sandwich" was so matter of fact, that, considering it was the first warm day of this Spring, her having asked if we could could walk the distance to Harvard Square and in light of her often being reluctant to try new restaurants once we have established where we usually go, it was just that convincing that that was what she really wanted right then and that it was with all politeness that she had firmly decided.

New Year's Eve we spent on Boston Common at the figure skating and fireworks event, followed minutes later with a three hour concert across the street from the Orpheum. Back to the apartment by 11:45.

Christmas, Donna saw a wild rabbit walking home from theater.

Last year was record snowfall and you can see how Harvard University was submerged in icicles from the lecture videos from our online course in American poetry.

The Christmas Eve worship service from Donna's church across from the Orpheum Theater was a regular service and we have been to several this month, but it wasn't really needed to get out of any blizzard of any sort, so we went into the shopping district to return something at Macy's, which had closed at six o'clock.
Donna said that what she wanted most in the world was to ride the horse drawn carriage through the city. I had to find the stand and thought I remembered seeing them at Faneuil Hall, which has changed just enough for the stand to have moved.

After riding through a completely empty Liberty Square, downtown Boston, at nine o'clock at night, on the warmest Christmas since 1955, the record breaking "Blink" Christmas Tree at Faneuil Hall blasted Handel's Messiah recorded by the Boston Pops. The Blink exhibition was a series of flashing Christmas lights where the tree changed colors from Red to Green to White. It was synchronized to our arriving at the Customs House at the end of the carriage ride.

Architectural study would mostly look at the nineteenth (upto Edwardian) century-but walking back I found a plaque where Paul Revere's Silver Shop once was, notable in that The Old North Church, The Paul Revere House and needless to say Paul Revere's grave, are still landmarks in Boston that can be seen at anytime.
