Spending the snow day with Abi sounds pretty darn good, Stephen. Alden turns 16 today, and it hurts that I'm not there. We will see him tomorrow, but it is the first birthday either of us have missed in 18+ years as parents.
Haven't you always dreamed of having a white birthday in North Carolina? I hope you get a snow day and stay home, relax, drink beer and listen to tunes. Have a great one regardless!
Cheers!

Oddly enough, I was excused for cause. It was a car accident personal injury case and the only shred of reason I can think of is that I said I represent insurance companies, which is true. Weird but I'll take it. Some day I want to serve on one.
Sitting in a jury box waiting to be voir dired. Can't decide whether to press hardship or just wait to be excused from jury service as I always have been.
Those remind me that Dynamo Donuts is doing beer donuts with Almanac brews in them this week.
Earlier tonight, Claire and I made Mike and Debbie's kale/fennel/sausage/white bean stew and it was delicious. I am still working and was thinking about having another helping even though now I really want Grahame and Joanne's donuts after seeing those pictures.
Happy birthday spymaster! I hope you get to ride a bike, play guitar, take zoo photos, listen to music, drink some cocktails and craft beer, and control a head or two on your big day!
Cheers!
