Red Sox Fever

I felt as though I owed an apology for the lack of posts.  I have two excuses.  The weaker of the two is that I have been stung by an unfortunate bug this week, which has manifested itself in the form of a fever, annoying cough, irritating sniffles and an all around ickiness!  The better [...]
