And it's the greatest thing in the world.
Truly, it is.
It's a cotton Mexihammock that I picked up a few years ago and it's quite lovely.

For J's birthday this year, we got her (and us) tickets to a Red Sox game.
So after four years here, I finally popped my Red Sox/Fenway cherry.
And now I am the proud owner of my very own hat. It's brown, with a baby blue and white B (I'm in the ...

I've been getting my final bills from our utility companies, and overall, they haven't been horrible... except for our final gas bill, which I just opened.
