Which one? We’re going to the gym. I really want to lie in bed with the catz and listen to the wind whoosh, but the troops need exercise. They can watch “Star Wars” when we get home.

I overdid something a bit at the gym. Hopefully it will ease up by Friday.

FWIW, some of my Canadian colleagues are saddened

So, should I send them some bitter oranges or some rotten red apples? You know, to make them feel better and all. ;-)
