About Me

i grew up in a tiny town in upstate new york, then decided on boston for college. after six years at northeastern to get my physical therapy degree dan and i moved to baltimore, got married, got 2 cats and moved back a year and a half later. it was nice where we were, just not boston.we have been in our house in abington since january 2005. we will probably be working on it until we retire. we have a dog, a lab/springer mix, who has more energy than i ever could have predicted. sometimes she drives me crazy, but she's cute so she can get away with it.i don't get to see my friends as much as i would like, but i am trying to work on that.

You Are Boston
Both modern and old school, you never forget your roots.
Well educated and a little snobby, you demand the best.
And quite frankly, you think you are the best.
Famous people from the Boston area: Conan O'Brien, Ben Affleck, New Kids on the Block What American City Are You?
