This morning, I checked my email and I received a very exciting email. Here is the first paragraph:
Welcome! You are now a New England Patriots Season Ticket Holder! We are excited to have you as the newest member of our team.
The rest of the email just explains when I’ll get my seat assignments, when they want money, if I’ll be eligible for playoff tickets this year (yes), etc… The rest of the email is pretty boring, but that first paragraph got me out of my seat and caused me to dance around house. 
For those of you that are curious, I put my name on the season ticket waiting list back in 1998 or 1999 (don’t remember which, been a LOONNNG time). Over 10 years. At that point I was single. I was living in Dorchester with friends. I was driving a Saturn. I was working from home (I guess that’s still the same).
Quite an exciting day. I guess the saying “Good things come to those that wait” applies to this.
