All in all, a great trip back home by any means!

I had to do laundry right away, and some weird things started happening today. I saw this dude running full sprint with his kid in a stroller, chasing down a bus, and a cigarette in his hand. Uhhh, drop the smoke dude!!
The other weird thing was the lineup of Holiday Hams at the Flip Barrio Fiesta. No joke, there was about 20 hams lined up ready to be picked up, I felt like slipping one under my North Face!
I had to start Old Faithful to see if it was still running, and sure enough, she kept right on Ticking! Huurrraaahhh!

Then I had to check the 4100 emails waiting for my attention. The best of which was this:

Thanks to you too, Michelle, Barack, and Family.

If you haven't already noticed, I'm heading out to Cousin Rich's party at the showroom! Details are at the top of the blog. If you're not there, I certainly hope you're in a safe, warm, alcoholic place full of friends, fam, and loved ones.

I really hope she's gonna be there too!
