Maybe there is something redeeming about Boston after all.

Riva found the following ad on craigslist in Boston.

Will pay $500 to clean your place
Date: 2008-08-14, 9:20PM

35yo white male, tall, athletic, educated, professionally employed. 100% sane, safe, stable, emotionally mature but don't take myself too seriously, etc.

Common tale of alpha male wanting to turn the tables and do a woman's bidding. If you're not familiar w/ how common this is, b/c it's not your thing, I'd be happy to explain. I will clean your place, do your laundry, chores, projects - anything you wish. You order me around like a servant, get all the drudgery done that you don't have time for and/or don't feel like doing yourself, and wield explicit power over a grown man. I will be subservient to you, and pay you $500 cash for the experience. No sex. No joke. I'm totally normal, laid-back, flexible, and few people are ever uncomfortable around me.

You need to be: 24-36 SWF, attractive, athletic or slender, intelligent, witty, adventurous w/ a sense of humor and a messy place. Even if we only do it once, it'd be great fun and a great story -- in addition to the cash and the practical benefits. And if you can't believe you're answering this ad, you might be exactly who I'm looking for.

In other news, hot air ballooning was postponed and the Brooklyn bbq was canceled due to storm activity. Instead of the bbq, I was forced to undergo hours in Williamsburg at Hotel Delmano. At least the drinks were delicious.
