Make mine dark chocolate.
It's nice that the big news today was about two people getting engaged.
Today is a great day to post the Chicago flag.

I finally got that phone call from HR I've been waiting on for the past couple of weeks. New role starts September 8.

The 9yo is off to a good start for the school year. His teacher sent a nice note saying that he's the first student in 4 years to get max results in their crop regeneration project.

Looking ahead to Labor Day Weekend when my town holds its annual community festival, and the weather looks nice for once. Usually it's unbearably hot and miserable.

Death, taxes, and my wife asking me a question within 45 seconds of me putting my earbuds in to listen to my audiobook.

It's like she KNOWS. 😯
