Come, Shoot The Breeze With Me!

Hello, Friday! Another weekend is here. Our plans? Not much. This was “the week of very little sleep.” Last night, for the first time in at least a week, I actually got 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep! One night really isn’t enough to recover from a week though – so I’m really hoping for a repeat tonight. 😉

Since I missed last week, I really have a lot of good stuff for ya. I think I’ll try to categorize it a bit. Here goes!
