life is a picnic
Saturday morning at 9am Shannon calls me. I'm sleeping (obvi) and her message says 'call me back, it's important'. she was at iparty.
Emily's bachelorette-picnic.
I feel like a parent who doesn't take as many pictures of their second born as they do of their first. I have millions of photos from Shannon's shower, bachelorette, wedding, wedding weekend, dress try-on, bustle (pictured), etc.
maybe someday if I get married no one will take pictures. actually the pictures seem like one of the best parts of a wedding ceremony. everyone is focused on grooming you and wants their picture taken with you. you're like Mickey Mouse.
KG, it must be so hard to watch from the bench. you should know that you look really good in your suits.
and I just really love this picture.
Go Celtics!

Sports Update
the Sox have lost their first 2 series of '09. they take a record of 2-4 to Oakland tonight. I'm not worried. 156 games to go!
I have missed the Sox. so very much. during the offseason they unveiled new jerseys. also, the primary logo is no longer the "B", it's the "red socks".
---> 
new jerseys:
(do you think that is where the state came from?)
look at the away uniforms:
they look a lot like the Yankees:
at least they got rid of the green jerseys.
yesterday the Cavs destroyed the Celtics. at the end of the first quarter the Cetltics were down 9-31. they managed to lose by 31 points. dumpster time.
only 2 more regular season games.
this week NHL playoffs start. the Bs have the top seed in the East and are playing a 7-game series with the 8th-seeded Canadiens.
last season, the Canadiens were the 1 seed and the Bruins were the 8 seed. my how the tables have turned. (Bs lost in 7 games)
one tidbit you non-sports-followers should know is that baseball play 2-4 game series all season. that's why the Sox played the Angels on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. the difference with play-off series (in all sports) is that play-off series are "best-of" and all 7 (or 5) games might not be necessary. got it?
I ate too much Easter candy.

The Bed Times
as you know, I love granny style.
but lately I seriously am a grandma. nothing sounds better than going to bed at 8:30 p.m. I look forward to those evenings strictly devoted to reclining on the couch, then in my bed.
couch:
bed:
last night I had the opportunity to go out drinking with pals in Black Kids and Mates of State. no. I reluctantly went backstage where I drank a Poland Springs, refusing several offers of Jameson and Sam Adams. I did help myself to the carrot sticks. (the first vegetables I've eaten in about a week.) then skipped out to go home at 12:30 instead of going to Bleacher Bar.
here's Mary hanging out like a cool 26 year-old.
here's Jon and Owen cleaning out the fridge. in the foreground you see my water bottle.
somehow I managed to age 40 years in a matter of months.
on Sunday, friends from Austin were playing a show at TT's. they asked to crash on my floor while in Boston. figured it could be nice as I haven't seen Logan in 4 years.
after their show they literally had to put me in the van and make me go to The Model kicking and screaming. when we got home I shushed them for an hour. did I mention I haven't seen them in 4 years?
honestly, one Simply Sleep and 10-14 hours of uninterrupted sleep is an awesome Friday night. just gotta make sure the sleep marathon is in the privacy of my own home.
my bed is just too wonderful. I've had the same one for 4 years. I have created my ultimate sleep oasis. of anywhere I could possibly sleep I would pick my bed. it helps that Chip Munk snuggles next to my face every night. occassionally Biff will join.
good times
I think preferring to sleep in your own bed means you are an adult. now I must work on being an adult and not a senior citizen.

Goodnight, Coon
a magical (and somewhat true) bedtime story.
once upon a time I was cat cuddling.
and I met the sweetest and fluffiest Maine Coon Cat.
his name is Simon.
we bonded and I thought about taking him home to be my very own.
but I already have 3 sweeties.
I was sad because I love Maine Coons.
then a friend of mine told me he met a Maine Coon who looked like my Biff.
this made me very excited.
could Biff be one of these magical creatures?!
I read and read and read about Maine Coon Cats.
and found out Biff is part Maine Coon and part Panda.
and Muffin is part Maine Coon and part Alpaca.
how wonderful to have 2 Maine Coons in my life!
now I'm getting sleepy.
p.s. they lived happily ever after.

who's your paddy?
I know a lot of Irish people live in Boston. is St. Patrick's Day as big of a deal in other parts of the country? idk.
I just looked up "St. Patrick's Day" on wikipedia. the first St. Patrick's Day parade was held in Boston in 1761. but the first "recorded" St. Patrick's Day parade was in NYC in 1762... if wikipedia knows the first parade was in Boston a year earlier then how is that not recorded?
just food for thought.
so SPD is the national holiday of Ireland. as pretty much the only non-Irish person in Boston, I'm wondering why don't we celebrate Święto Państwowe (the national holiday of Poland)?
very interesting, Ameryka.
you may think that the picture below is of Ireland.
...it's Poland!

unconditional love
what happened guys?
I know we have injuries....
Scalabrine - strained neck
KG - knee strain
Tony Allen - thumb boo-boo
but losses to Clippers and Pistons = unacceptable.
I will still sport my Celtics jacket with pride.
And Nathan is really this tall:
