Well, I can't say much about Boston. I mean, I don't ACTUALLY live there, I just say I do, because it's easier than saying a town that not as many people would recognize. I live in Lexington, where the Revolution started. :)
Oh, man, I LOVE Lexington! Since my brother goes to Brandeis University in Waltham, whenever we go up to visit him, we normally end up going to a Thai restaurant in Lexington.

Haha, yeah, we have like 5 thai cuisines in that one small dowtown that we have. I myself have actually never been to one, but I have been to the video store next door. :)
Good luck, Caitie! We're all thinking of you and hope to see you back soon.
Stagewhore, a lyric from Origin of Love is always a good answer... if you go with Wig in a Box (the other song you were talking about), one of my favorites is "I look back on where I'm from, look at the woman I've become, and the strangest things seem suddenly routine."
The one really crappy thing about Chicago is since it's a big city you always expect all the big things to come here (i.e. a book signing that's going to effing Dallas)... don't.
Measure your life in love, RENTheads, and keep it always in your heart.

Rentingfame, I decided on the beginning of wig in a box (as you can see). Sweetsiren, do you have the original pic in your av? Raul in ttB looks even better than he does in his other shows. Don't get me wrong, I love his chitty costume, but normal clothes (or drag...mmmm) look better than a silly green plaid suit. And as far as east coast schools, does anyone know about out-of-state fees? I'm sick of CA.
"`I grow old... I grow old... I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled.` What does that mean, Mr. Marlowe?"
"Not a bloody thing. It just sounds good."
He smiled. "That is from the `Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock.` Here's another one. `In the room women come and go/Talking of Michael Angelo.' Does that suggest anything to you, sir?"
"Yeah -- it suggests to me that the guy didn't know very much about women."
"My sentiments exactly, sir. Nonetheless I admire T. S. Eliot very much."
"Did you say, 'nonetheless'?"
