A half hour in I realized I wasn't enjoying myself and then there were about 14 hours left to endure. 3) Bon Iver's For Emma, Forever Ago 4) I really enjoyed Christopher Moore's A Dirty Job. Guy becomes an agent of death, set in San Francisco. Very funny. 5) I only care if New England is playing, so this year I am kind of uninspired. 6) Pregnant, so not drinking much beer. But in any case, everything is better with bacon, right? 7) A lavender sachet (whoo.) and a stuffed toy from Australia. 8) New fancy lens for my camera. Thanks for asking.
