Except for a brief excursion to Berkman on Thursday evening, I haven't had to go outside because of a remarkable set of indoor walkways that connect the hotels of Copley Place with shopping and food places scattered along the way.
Today I'm heading over to MIT in Cambridge for the Beyond Broadcast conference (where I am a participant, an observer) and for that, I have to go outside. Brrr.
I was shocked to see that it's 17 degrees. Not fair! ";->"
