hopelessly devoted to deconstructing popular culture and conventional wisdom, one blog at a time

SINGLE IN BOSTON: According to Forbes.com, I made a wise decision leaving Phoenix for Boston this year, as I now live in that mag's No. 2 city in the nation for singles. Of course, my own personal experience these past six months tells quite a different story -- one, that, thankfully continues to unfold in wild, mystical ways. Still a lot of room for improvement, but knowing that Forbes.com is so optimistic about the prospects gives me reason to remain hopeful. That, and remembering the Seattle experience. It took me a miserable year alone there before everything and everyone there ultimately opened up to me (or did it take a year for me to open up to others? ah, the joys of philosophic self-reflection). But enough about me. How's your social life?
