Happy Dew Year!

Hello again! As you probably know, I've been busy with work over the last couple weeks. Thankfully, the trial of the century is almost over, so I should be back to my regular schedule soon enough. Here's some highlights of my last two weeks:

-The parking lot in the office building in SoCal that we've been using as a home base down there was re-paved. Now, I don't know what kind of pavement they used, but apparently one of the key ingredients was dog shit because it fucking smelled exactly like that. It was not a fun week down there.

-I've been noticing on the news a lot of stories about cold weather, and frankly, I'm a little confused. I don't think it's gotten below 70 here. One day it was in the 80s. Must be some sort of joke.

-IT HAPPENED AGAIN. My bag was, for the second time in my life, the very first one to come down the chute at baggage claim. The Oakland airport is a magical place, you guys.

And some other stuff happened, but I think that's all that I'll share for now.

Pat is crazy.
