But, what better way can she and I support the local animal shelter than to participate in their 8K run/ 4K walk later this month? Yes, you [...]

After a post like yesterday’s, the only thing to do is find something exponentially more cheerful. Something that makes me laugh Every. Single. Time. Something just flat out funny.
