Today, a good portion of our savings will be used to pay off my side of our student loans. It is an odd, strange, exciting, frustrating feeling.

Trans-Siberian Orchestra for an Early Birthday Present
You've heard me say this on several occasions, but my wife is awesome! This time, she got me tickets to the Trans-Siberian Orchestra this past Sunday.

Surviving Our First “Hurricane”
As you know, Hurricane Irene was the recent scare that hit the east coast. In the end, this category-1 hurricane was downgraded into a powerful tropical storm.

My First Boston Celtics Game
Since moving to New England, I have been getting into their sports teams little by little. It was pretty easy to become a Red Sox fan, since they won the championship the year I moved.
