Over caffeinated, under compensated

"Coffee is the common man's gold, 
and like gold, it brings to every man 
the feeling of luxury and nobility"

Gen X Dad
   
I spotted this article on Kevin Schofield's blog from this week's Boston Globe Sunday Magazine about being a gen-X dad. It's interesting to me for 3 reasons: (1) I pretty much fit the description of the guys in the article, as do many of my friends, (2) the guys profiled all live within 2 miles of where I did when we lived in Watertown, Ma almost 9(!) years ago. (3) the bar they meet up in once a month "Conley's" used to be "McFlys" our favorite in town bar. Lisa and I spent a pretty fun night there during a big blizzard in 1993. We walked down a deserted Belmont Street, climbed over a huge snow bank, and drank Murphy's with 3 or 4 of the regulars. A classic Boston winter memory...   .:
