The Somerville Journal has posted an article about the Blue Shirt's expansion into the former Dollar Day space, which is scheduled to be completed in early September.

Meet-up reminder + suggestions for next month

[anomie666.livejournal.com]

Tomorrow (Wednesday the 13th) at 7pm in the back room of the Burren is our monthly meet-up. They are pushing back trivia till 9pm because they like us. As usual, the Burren is always very nice to our group so please drink up and tip well! :)

Trivia is $5 per team at 9pm if people want to form teams and play.

Next month we can either try a new place (Joshua Tree, Redbones, Sabur etc) or we can go back to where we have been before. I've talked to the people at Joe Sent Me and we are welcome there anytime we want and I'm sure we are welcome back at Orleans.

I have a parking question, and I tried 311 but it didn't work on my phone? I went down to the parking place this morning and the lady just kinda bitched me out.

Anyways, I don't have a car but two of my roommates do and 2 of my future roommates (starting 9/1) have cars too. I notice that other people have those signs that block off the space in front of their homes for a few days for "moving" so I wanted to do the same but the person at the P&T office said I have to pay $25 for a moving van pass despite the fact that we're not using a moving van, just a suburban and the like. Is this not kosher? She told me they don't block the street off 'just for moving' but I really don't want to have to park down the street and lug stuff back and forth and up the the two flights of stairs. Parking on our street is pretty sparse as it is.

Also, will they ticket an unpermitted car in our driveway?

Edit: You're all full of shit. (I say this half jokingly). Thnx for flooding my inbox while I was out for coffee.
