After a two months of bitching and moaning about Baltimore, I've realized I don't mind it so much any more. I still don't have any friends here, but that does seem to bother me. I think the transition has been okay, because so much of Baltimore is like Boston.
Running along the Inner Harbor: running along the Charles.
Cherry Blossom run: Run to Remember.
Safeway 10 minute walk away: Stop & Shop 10 minute walk away.
Polish Deli at Broadway Market: Russian grocery store on Beacon.
H-mart food court: Super 88 food court.
White frat boys: white frat boys.
Sunning on the back deck: sunning on my porch.
Nieman Marcus Last Call: Filene's Basement (Downtown).
Gossipy old Irish lady neighbor: gossipy old jewish lady neighbor.
Excessive drinking of Harpoon IPA: excessive drinking of Yuengling.
Erratic drivers along Eastern Ave: erratic drivers on Beacon.
Crazy Orioles fans: crazy Red Sox fans.
The list could go on, but since I have legitamate work to do today I will leave it at that.
