The other night I was grabbing fush un chops (I’ve got to get into the spirit, with this trip looming :P ), and saw Rachel (Lacey?) ahead of me, trying to control some cute but mildly troublesome little toddler. I was trying to think up a particularly sharp and witty introductory line, but took too… Read more

Unfortunately I decided not to… Read more
