The News: Sunday, August 12 Edition

For the next week, my intros are going to get a lot shorter. You don’t really come here to read my babbling about my life anyway, and really…I hope to have nothing to report other than, “Went to the beach, cooked hot dogs over the campfire for dinner, sat next to the lake with my book.” I’m sure if something truly entertaining comes up I’ll mention it, but otherwise I’m not going to take much more time than necessary out of my R&R. Besides, I’ve got great-nieces and a great-nephew to spoil!
