So much for that My plans were curtailed by not being able to get the car, so I walked and walked and walked around Providence. It was a good walk, and I saw some neat stuff...pictures are here. But ultimately I wandered too far--all the way to North Providence--and by the time I made it back downtown, my feet were killing me.

I've been back at the hotel since about 3:30, relaxing, resting my feet, eating hotel chocolate mints, and watching a movie called The Pallbearer, which is really amoral/bizarre and revolves around one of those characters who can't seem to make a decision and who exudes a complete lack of confidence in himself. The situation is totally ridiculous and irritating...but I can't stop watching it, it's like a train wreck.
