Rest Your Weary Wings

Friday morning, Opening Day at Fenway, found me wide awake at 4 a.m. Local news coverage of the Sox and Fenway Park started at 5 and by 5:30 I gave up all hope of going back to sleep and was in my Sox gear, just waiting and watching all of the updates on the revamped park, including a sushi bar (?!) and three giant flat screens where the Jumbotron used to be. We're nearing the start of my eighth year in Beantown. I have the amazing opportunity to do work on a few charity collaborations with the Sox and I work within spitting distance of the park, so I suppose the transition from transplant into mega fan was just a matter of time.

At 6:45 I was too excited to stay home, so I headed out and picked up an extra-large french vanilla, regular, from Dunkin', and paid a visit to my feathered friends at Hall's Pond. I only intended to stroll by but the birds were going crazy at 7:15, urging the sun to rise with their pips and chirps and caws. I decided the Sox can wait, the office will still be there at 8 a.m. and when nature is putting on such a to-do you don't dismiss it. I parked it on the beautiful stone bench and watched the birds watch the sun and then waddle around hunting for their breakfast in the grass. A terrific start to a beautiful day that ended with the first Sox win of the season, thank goodness.

Oh yeah, and I got my first hot dog of the season!
