{ welcome home, boys. welcome home. }

There is no greater day than Opening Day at Fenway!

Just think, Sunday night I will be doing the following things:

1. Listening to Tessie and other Dropkick favorites on the T on the way to the ballpark

2. At Fenway Park watching the Sox take on the Yanks in Game 3 with a wonderful friend.

3. Cheering like a moron for my team loudly and obnoxiously.

4. Singing Sweet Caroline with hundreds of people at the Bottom of the 8th (love).

5. Lamenting my devouring of a Fenway Frank and a few beers ... it's going to happen.

6. Riding the T back home either a) on a natural high of happiness or b) saddened by a loss.

Lets hope for A.

{ sox season is here ... }

Boston Red Sox season is here to stay, and that little gem makes this New England fan very happy. I can't wait for all of those fun things that couple so nicely with baseball ... Grilling on the deck while listening to announcers screaming on the radio about another walk off, spilling my drink when I get excited about a very bad call, arguing with my Yankees fan friends (remind me why I still hang out with them?), and feeling my heart swell with pride every time I hear Sweet Caroline or Tessie come on the radio ...

Know what the best part about this season is? I have tickets this time.

Phil Yamada makes very cool things.
Above is part of an alphabet series done with acrylic on old newpapers (very cool).

I may be copying this idea very soon...
