Good morning, chickens. And Happy MLK Jr. day! Unfortunately, I’ll be spending much of the day in a cubicle, since my company insists on keeping us hostage from January to Memorial Day without any holidays in between. Nothing like driving … Continue reading

Good Weekend. Why stop at Sunday night?
This weekend my parents and tiny baby brother (who is now 19 and decidedly not tiny. Or a baby. But I’m the oldest. I’ll call him whatever I want.) came into the city. This is always a really good time. … Continue reading
