the unreal city on a tuesday afternoon

I have an overdue library book and I will not be able to return until some things in Boston are resolved. I was able to return a different library book on Thursday  of last week, and I suppose I could have renewed the one that was due today. I'm still reading it, and even though it isn't very good, I intend to plow through most of it before the week is over.

The mood in the Back Bay is a little bit off. People are out and about, but things are not close to normal. We do not seem gripped by fear, the cops and soldiers all look bored, and many rituals of post-Marathon day are being carried out.  Who knows what will happen next.
