adamosity, I made it!)
I mean, making the last FedEx pickup in my own office building -- had I not planned quite so poorly -- might have provided some ordinary, garden-variety, get-home-an-hour-earlier contentment. But zipping down to the Financial District, and finding the Federal St. drop location right at the stroke of 9pm only by Sheer Dumb Luck -- that's a rush. Ha! I figured I might as well try it, since the worst that could happen was that the package had to wait until tomorrow... the same as if I didn't try at all.
I was so pleased that I proceeded to ramble around Post Office Square for a while, until I got my bearings somewhere around State Street, so I looped down through Quincy Market (where all the shops were closed but all the open-air restaurants -- and it is a lovely night -- were full of people watching the Big Sox Game), and back up through Downtown Crossing, and hopped right onto a Red Line train at Park Street. More perfect timing.
Life is good.
