Christmas comes early...

... or my birthday came late. Either way, I just bought myself tickets to the only two Twins games happening at Fenway this year. And for the May 19th game, I splurged on myself and will be sitting right behind homeplate. (Well, off to the left, but whatever.) I've also noted that the Twins are playing a weekend series in Philadelphia in June, home of my friend Maggie. I may have to pay her a visit...

(An aside to whoever schedules MLB games -- the Twins play the Red Sox once in April to open Target Field and once in May at Fenway, and then they never play each other again. I'm pretty sure there's a more optimized schedule than that.)
