Well, from what you can see of it. And in addition to being so fine, and beautifully knit, it&#8217;s hand spun. I&#8217;m happy with second behind that!<br \/>\nOther great things, I got some wonderful mail from lovely people. The streetlight outside my bedroom window that had been flickering for seven nights, making it feel like we were sleeping in a disco has been fixed.

I have no idea how I didn&#8217;t know about this, but I didn&#8217;t. I checked the ticket site yesterday afternoon, and there were only crappy seats left. I was pretty disappointed, and decided to think about it for a while before buying tickets.<br \/>\nLast night, after talking it over with David, I decided that it was better to go and have crappy seats than not go at all. I went online to get tickets, and they&#8217;d obviously released more tickets, because we&#8217;re sitting in the <em>second row<\/em>.
