Playoffs!

Not those playoffs. My recreational, 7 v. 7, coed soccer team's playoffs! Our team number is 1, and our team name was originally Kevin & Co. after our nominal coach, but we were later switched to Het Legioen by a Dutch teammate when Kevin objected. This same group of guys and gals have been playing together for almost three years.

True, we ended this particular season an underwhelming 1-4-1, but our last two games were the tie and the win, so we're on an upswing! We finished 2nd to last so we're playing the second best team. We play at 7pm tomorrow. If we lose they may boot us out of the A-League. Wish us luck.

I'm also excited about the Boston Celtic Music Festival, which is just around the corner. If you go to the events myspace page, most of the performers are listed as friends. If you click on their profiles you can hear a bit of what they sound like.

Also on myspace, though not particularly Celtic, is one of Irene's friends from Divinity School: Noe Venable. Go ahead and listen to "Prayer for Beauty" and try not to be impressed. I dare you.
